The Bootleg Beatles, who have been known as the world's leading Beatles tribute for more than 40 years, are coming to Carlisle later this year. 

Having played over 4500 shows since their creation in London in 1980, the tribute promises to produce a flawless recreation of what is arguably the greatest songbook of all time.

The performance will see the tribute trace the fab four's journey through the swinging 60s, donning authentic period costumes and instruments.

However, none of the band's original members remain after Andre Barreau played his last gig at Hyde Park in 2014. 

The band currently consists of Tyson Kelly (John Lennon), Steve White (Paul McCartney), Stephen Hill (George Harrison), and Gordon Elsmore (Ringo Starr). 

Following previous performances at Glastonbury, Wembley Stadium and the Hammersmith Apollo amongst others, the Bootleg Beatles are set to visit Carlisle's Sands Centre on Thursday, October 12 at 7:30 pm.

Tickets are available on the Better Box Office website for around £30.
