The McCartney Years

There are many Beatles tributes. But there's only one show that celebrates the genius of Paul McCartney at the height of his career in the mid- 1970s. Praised by Beatles promoter Sid Bernstein - the man who brought the original Beatles to North America - as the best on the scene today, The McCartney Years is a note-for-note faithful recreation of a mid-1970s Paul McCartney concert. Led by perfectionist Yuri Pool as Sir Paul, the band has a commitment to 100% live and accurate reproductions of McCartney's concert experience. The show is period true, technically stunning and sonically explosive. Every note is live and played true to its original arrangement. It has set the standard for all who might follow in this significant body of work. It's a blast to watch.
