It's a Living Thing

Formed in 1970 in Birmingham, the Electric Light Orchestra (ELO) is a band that fuses pop music with classical overtones. Jeff Lynne, its creator and continuing driving force added violins, cellos, string basses, horns and woodwind to the standard rock line-up to “pick up where the Beatles left off…” In the 13 years following their arrival on the music scene, they sold over 50 million records worldwide. In this concert experience, Jeff Lynne’s ELO’s classic sound is expanded with a treatment that utilises a full symphony orchestra and band, with 6 singers and full chorus, to replicate the glorious wall of vocal sound. The concert celebrates ELO’s catalogue of classic chart hits – not re-imagined, but like you’ve never heard them before!
