New from the Yardbirds: a multi-media show YARDBIRDS LEGACY with original Drummer Jim McCarty telling stories and anecdotes from the formation of the band through the legendary lead guitarists to the 1992 induction into the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame, the reformation of the band shortly after that, spanning 60 years to today. Jim will tell all with video clips and photographs with the current band playing the hits along the way.
The Blues influenced Yardbirds had some major hits in the 60s – “For Your Love” and “Over Under Sideways Down” and “I’m a Man.” Their recorded repertoire includes Blues staples such as “Muddy Water” and “New York City Blues” and the Mose Allison tune “I’m Not Talkin.” You will see vintage film clips of the iconic lead guitarists who graced the stage in this band: Jimmy Page (#3 on Rolling Stone’s Top Guitarists), Jeff Beck (#5) and Eric Clapton (#35).
The current band includes Godfrey Townsend on lead guitar (John Entwistle, Happy Together Tour), Kenny Aaronson on bass (Billy Idol, Joan Jett, Rick Derringer), and Myke Scavone on Blues harp (Doughboys). Lead singer John Idan just celebrated his 30-year anniversary with the Yardbirds. They just recorded a new live album Mind the Gap, to be released soon. A special compilation featuring original band recordings, The Yardbirds Psycho Daisies – The Complete B-Sides, was just released for Record Store Day 2024. A documentary film, The Yardbirds in Their Own Words, produced by Nick Samwell-Smith and directed by James Tonkin, is currently airing on SKY-UK channel and will be released in the USA soon.
Meet & Greet (6:30 PM): Meet & Greet tickets are an additional $60 and include a Q&A, photo opportunity and autograph opportunity (bring your own items). You must have a ticket to the show and the M&G to attend. M&G tickets are available at the time of ticket purchase online, or by calling the Box Office.
