TRACY GRAHAM BACKING VOCALS Following touring with Moody Blues for 8 yrs and singing with the likes of Eric Clapton and Paul Young, Tracy is a great asset to the production with her class and talent.	RICHARD PARDY SAXOPHONE World tours with Westlife and Vanessa Mae, as well as tours with Amy Winehouse and Marty Wilde, have made Richard an invaluable addition to the show	LEIGH HEGGARTY GUITAR Widely regarded as the long-lost son of Steve 'The Colonel' Cropper, Leigh's incomparable guitar style and years with The Commitments, will leave you in no doubt that he is the Soul Man!


DAVE LAND TRUMPET / FLUGEL HORN Having first come across Dave in the Middle East whilst touring with the legendary Four Tops, his impeccable theatrical background - 16 yrs with Starlight Express - is invaluable to the show.	JOHN SORRELL BASS / BVs The longest-serving member of the show and with a wealth of experience gained whilst with Stiff Records, John definitely personifies the backbone of the production.


IAN GIBBONS KEYBOARDS 14 years with The Kinks and then touring with Ray Davies, Ian Hunter and Roger Chapman have honed Ian's playing into a talent that is sought after throughout the world. Ian has been with the production for the last 10 years and hopefully quite a few more to come.
