About Leo Green & The Icons Orchestra: Celebrating the Songs of David Bowie

Age  Under 16s must be accompanied by an adult 18+

Celebrate the music of David Bowie with Leo Green & The Icons Orchestra, the most explosive rock ‘n’ roll orchestra in the UK along with their incredible singers.

For one night only, Birmingham Town Hall will be full of the sound of one of the world’s greatest Rock ‘n’ Roll Orchestras, lovingly working its way through the phenomenal David Bowie catalogue – playing songs that are rarely heard performed live in a concert.

This is no tribute show; nobody will be dressing up as David Bowie. This will be a joyous concert, featuring many songs from the Bowie catalogue, including: Starman, Let’s Dance, Heroes, Space Oddity, Oh! You Pretty Things, Life On Mars, Sound and Vision, Ashes To Ashes, Rebel Rebel, Changes, China Girl, Ziggy Stardust, The Jean Genie, Lady Grinning Soul, Wild Is The Wind, right up to Lazarus, from his last and perhaps most poignant release in 2016.

So why not celebrate David Bowie, with an evening of his music at Birmingham Town Hall. Don’t just take our word for it, here’s what some of his peers said about him and his incredible music:

“An extraordinary Man and a true original” – The Rolling Stones

“He was the best” – Iggy Pop

“His music played a very strong part in British musical history and I’m proud to think of the huge influence he has had on people all around the world.” – Sir Paul McCartney
