Jimmy Jemain and his band pay tribute to Cliff Richard & The Shadows with a lively morning concert featuring some of the biggest hits of the 1950s and 1960s, including Living Doll, The Young Ones and Do You Wanna Dance.

Cliff Richard & The Shadows helped define an era of British popular music, combining memorable melodies, distinctive electric guitar sounds and an unmistakable stage presence. Their songs remain familiar to generations of listeners, from early rock 'n' roll favourites to romantic ballads and energetic dance numbers.

Jimmy Jemain brings Cliff Richard's music to life

British performer Jimmy Jemain has built an international reputation as one of the leading Cliff Richard tribute artists. His resemblance to the singer extends beyond appearance to vocal style, mannerisms and stage movements.

Jemain first attracted widespread attention in 1990 through the British television programme Stars in Their Eyes. He later played the leading role in the West End production Cliff: The Musical in 2003, further establishing his reputation as a performer closely associated with Richard's music.

Accompanied by a live band, Jemain recreates the atmosphere of classic Cliff Richard & The Shadows performances using period-inspired costumes, microphones and amplifiers. Expect recognisable guitar melodies, nostalgic songs and plenty of opportunities to sing along.
