GUY YOUNG

Guy offers several shows to choose from. Please see below.

Jeff Lynne was born in Shard End, a small area of Birmingham in 1947.

After spells in local bands throughout the mid 1960s, Jeff found himself as a member of The Move with Roy Wood. Wood and Lynne’s side project Electric Light Orchestra became one of the most successful bands of the 1970s and early ’80s, despite founder member Wood departing after less than a year to work on other projects.

With Jeff Lynne as songwriter, producer and frontman, ELO had worldwide success with albums such as “Out of the blue”, “Face the music” and “Discovery”. When ELO disbanded in the mid-1980s, Lynne became a sought-after producer for such acts as Tom Petty, George Harrison and Paul McCartney. He also co-founded the supergroup Travelin’ Wilburys with Harrison, Petty, Bob Dylan and Roy Orbison. Jeff gradually returned to the public eye with a new album and charity appearances from 2012, culminating in a brand new album “Alone in the universe” and UK tour in 2016. In April 2017 he was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame.

A DVD of his sell-out Wembley gig is due for release in November 2017, and more dates expected to be announced during the Spring of 2018.

Guy Young was born in Sutton Coldfield, less than 10 miles from Jeff Lynne, in 1966.

Guy has been a fan of ELO since the age of 10. After several years as a mobile DJ, he became a singer around the pubs and clubs of England – firstly as part of a duo, and then subsequently as a solo act.

When Jeff Lynne began live appearances again in 2012, Young was interested to note that, despite clubland being awash with tribute acts, there didn’t appear to be one in the Midlands. After a period of due diligence, where he found a small quantity of acts performing Jeff Lynne’s music live, Young decided to perform his own.

To ensure that he was different, he chose to include not on only the hits of ELO, but to also the hits that he produced for other acts. This has allowed him to create a beautiful show, packed with classic hits – hence “ELOQUENCE”.

Guy has been performing the Eloquence show since the summer of 2016, alongside his standard show of general covers.

TRIBUTE TO JEFF LYNNE’S ELO:
Using the most authentic backing tracks available, and boasting an almost uncanny resemblance both visually and sonically, we are proud to be able to offer you this solo tribute to the genius sound of Jeff Lynne’s Electric Light Orchestra, as performed by Birmingham musician Guy Young. Prepare to be sent back (via iconic spaceship!) to the hits of the 70s and 80s including “Turn to stone”, “Evil woman”, and of course “Mr Blue sky”.
70s MANIA!:
A brilliant party atmosphere is almost unavoidable when booking this show. The best music from the 1970s brought to you by Birmingham musician Guy Young. Expect an evening of music made famous by Slade, Mud, Sweet, Beegees, T Rex, David Bowie, Abba, Wings, Earth Wind & Fire and many many more. You bring the stacked heels, and leave the rest to Guy!
