John Lennon Soundalike – Gary Gibson (UK)

Gary Gibson bears an uncanny resemblance to John Lennon himself. With his vocal ability, aesthetics and mannerisms he can bring Lennon back to life.

Gary has shared concert stages with such names as Elton John and Tom Jones, who famously exclaimed,”I thought I’d seen a ghost!”

Gibson’s show features Lennon solo material from the Plastic Ono Band through to Double Fantasy, as well as later Beatles classics like Come Together, Revolution and Don’t Let Me Down.

His band, ‘The Cavern Beatles’, have also made television appearances on ‘Stars In Their Eyes’  ‘Pebble Mill’ ‘The Late Late Show’ with Gay Byrne, who introduced the real Beatles on Granada television back in the 1960’s, and again on a ‘Stars InTheir Eyes Christmas Special’. The band also performed for a six week stint on Norway Television.

On the last Pebble Mill the ‘Cavern Beatles’ performed for George Martin who, along with Victor Spinnetti, talked about the making of ‘Hard Day’s Night’.

At a racing fraternity party Sir Elton John asked Gary if he could get up and sing with the band. “What shall we sing?” Gary asked. “Let’s do that one I did with John (Lennon) at Madison Square Gardens ‘I Saw Her Standing There’ replied Elton. Afterwards, back stage, Elton commented “I can’t believe it, you look so much like John. You’ve got to be related”!
