Calling all David Bowie fans in the Shire!
Celebrate with GROUND CONTROL, a sensational 7-piece ensemble that delivers a 100% live show covering all the hits and choice deep cuts from across the Starman’s 50-year career.
Ground Control delivers two sumptuous sets packed with the hits that made the memories you love: Space Oddity, Moonage Daydream, Let’s Dance, Rebel Rebel, Modern Love, Heroes, Queen Bitch, Golden Years, Fashion, Fame, Diamond Dogs, Life on Mars, Changes, Young Americans, plus Absolute Beginners, Suffragette City, Jean Genie – and many more.
With four-part harmonies, guitars, bass, drums, keys, percussion and saxophone - and no backing tracks - GroundControl takes the classic recordings as the foundation of their sonic celebration, singer Dan Murphy (not a liquor baron) delivering a soulful, muscular take on Bowie’s stage presentation.
After a year packed with sold out shows and a rapidly growing fanbase, Ground Control are at the peak of Bowie interpretations in the country.
A must for Bowie fans and the Bowie-curious!
What Bowie fans are saying about Ground Control…
“Excellent! Authentic renditions of David Bowie classics. We loved it.”
“One of the best Bowie tribute bands I’ve seen and heard. Dan Murphy’s vocals and no-frills performance were excellent. I could easily imagine the excitement of the lucky few who got to see Bowie in similar intimate venues.”
“When you opened with Sound and Vision, I knew we were in for a good night. I was right. Thank you to everyone involved for a show full of passion and respect.”
“It was an amazing set – thank you. Fantastic performance by everyone in the band.”
“You guys were absolutely drilled. Your energy was outstanding and the sound superb! The best small venue gig I’ve been to in years! Long live Bowie! Long live Ground Control: The Music of David Bowie.”
“Such a great night! Congratulations to the band on such a grand performance.”
“Bowie-licious!”
“So good. Loved every minute of it.”
