LONDON, UK (Top40 Charts/ Flying Music) - Back by popular demand and touring across April and May 2009, Flying
Music proudly present Rumours of Fleetwood Mac! A stunning live stage celebration concert performing the music of one of the world's first super-groups, Fleetwood Mac.
With their meticulously crafted instrumentals and tight harmonies, this year's tour once again brings the classic hits of the legendary Fleetwood Mac back to the masses. Rumours of Fleetwood Mac has perfected the legacy of blues, rock and pop classics that made the band the icons of the music industry that they are today.
Forming in New York in 1997, Rumours of Fleetwood Mac played their first gig for personal friend and record producer Brian Rawling, the master player behind great chart hits Cher's 'Do You Believe' and Ricky Martin's 'Private Emotion'. The vocal harmonies and musical arrangements of Mike Lennon (Keyboards & Vocals), Louise Rogan (Lead Vocals), Amanda Kostadinov (Lead Vocals & Keyboards), Ian Robinson (Bass), Alan Hughes (Guitars & Vocals) and Allan Cosgrove (Drums & Vocals) blend to create an evening of the finest musical entertainment.
With over 300 major theatre concerts behind them, Rumours of Fleetwood Mac have now performed to over 250,000 Mac fans worldwide and are recognised as the most authentic snapshot of rock super-group Fleetwood Mac! Once again, they are ready to wow audiences in cities across the UK, starting April 4th in Southport.
In an immaculate trip through outstanding musicianship, Rumours of Fleetwood Mac performs the classic hits from the legendary band. From their inception in 1967 with Peter Green, John McVie and Mick Fleetwood through to the critically acclaimed 'Rumours' era in the seventies with Christine McVie, Stevie Nicks and Lindsey Buckingham and their continuing success in the eighties and nineties.
'Rumours' has sold over 30 million copies worldwide and is listed as one of the best-selling albums of all time. Released in 1977, the album reached number one in February of the same year and charted for 477 weeks in the UK. It marked the band's 13th album and followed the release of the self-titled Fleetwood Mac in 1975.
The inspiration for 'Rumours' was said to have been the changes that the band were facing, in particularly the break ups between John and Chrissie McVie, and Stevie Nicks and Lindsey Buckingham. 'Go Your Own Way' was the first single release from the album and was written by Buckingham. It reached the top 50 in the UK and remains as one of the bands biggest this to this day. Other huge hits from the album include 'Dreams', which was more recently covered by The Corrs, 'You Make Loving Fun', 'Gold Dust Woman' and 'Don't Stop' to name a few.
So watch as this amazingly authentic group pay tribute to the breathtaking blues of Peter Green, the thunderous Mick Fleetwood grooves, the monster bass rifts of John McVie and the brilliant guitar work of Lindsey Buckingham - it's going to be a tour to remember!
