SATURDAY 21 SEPTEMBER 9PM
SPECIAL EARLY SHOW 22 SEPTEMBER 5:30PM
The Elton John Experience will bring back to Cairns all the glitz and glamour of a Sir Elton John concert to the BAR36 stage.
Performed by virtuoso pianist Greg Andrew, who has an uncanny likeness to the man himself, will take you on a journey through the music that has made Sir Elton John such a beloved icon around the world.
With tracks like I’m Still Standing, Saturday Nights Alright for Fightin’, Candle In The Wind, Daniel, Honky Cat, Don’t Let The Sun Go Down On Me and Crocodile Rock to name a few, the show is jam-packed with hit after hit.
EJE has toured to more than 30 countries with Greg himself being recognised as one of the top Elton John tribute artists in the world. In 2017 he performed at TRIBFEST UK, arguably the most prestigious tribute festival in the world – held annually in Yorkshire in England. Performing to the capacity crowd with his six-piece band, he received acclaim from fans and critics alike.
The show spans all facets of Sir Elton’s career, giving every generation who have become fans of the icon a chance to revel in the music. From the hey days of the 70s, to the Lion King soundtrack, there is something for everyone of all ages.
It was actually Sir Elton’s song ‘Your Song’ that first resonated with a young Greg Andrew, and he hasn’t looked back since. He was taken by the piano melody, captivated by the parallels between Sir Elton and his own musical passions. Perusing classical piano and further studying at the Queensland Conservatorium of Music, Greg’s passion is evident in his live performance of Elton’s classic hits.
