Turning the clock back to the birth of rock'n'roll, the Beacon Centre in Greenock is celebrating the legacy of one of the true pioneers of pop Buddy Holly.
'Buddy Holly and The Cricketers' are coming to the Beacon on Sunday 25 February, brought by producer Simon Fielder, a former actor in the original touring and West End show.
The highly anticipated tour will see the boys once again hit the stage to delight audiences with their dynamic show, featuring authentic arrangements, driving rhythms, energetic performances and skilled musicianship that always have audiences dancing in the aisles.
Songs include all Buddy’s big hits such as: That’ll Be The Day, Peggy Sue, Heartbeat, It Doesn’t Matter Anymore Raining In My Heart, Oh Boy! - plus some super stunners from other chart-topping artists.
Producer Simon said: “As a young guitarist I listened to Buddy and he massively influenced my playing and writing.
"My adult life has been spent performing his music and presenting other actor musicians on stages all over the world who have brought delight to thousands and thousands of people.
"The show has been on the road for over 30 years now. We are absolutely delighted to welcome our audiences back to full houses so they can enjoy a fabulous party with Buddy and the boys.”
