Imagined: The John Lennon Song Project with special guest Jack Petruzzelli of The Fab Faux and host Pete Fornatale

  • One of the most unique and compelling interpretations of the late John Lennon's compositions comes from The John Lennon Song Project, a 7-piece ensemble created and led by Rex Fowler of Aztec Two-Step and Tom Dean of Devonsquare. Together, they have produced a thoughtfully re-imagined tribute that celebrates the genius and artistry of the icon's music.

Like their CD Imagined, the band's live show features superb lead singing and 3-part harmonies, plus a host of talented musicians on acoustic, electric and bass guitars, cello, violin, mandolin, accordion, chromatic harmonica and light percussion. Concert goers will be treated to exquisite renditions of Lennon's legendary Beatles songs, often weaving melody, lyric and song together in a series of singles and mini-medleys. These tunes, of which several are rarely covered, are given surprisingly fresh treatments that often inspire a whole new meaning to Lennon's original lyric. Selected songs from Lennon's solo years are also featured.

"With these intelligent heartfelt renditions of Lennon's best known songs, The John Lennon Song Project ranks right up there with the very best Lennon interpreters ever." — WFUV and XM Satellite Radio host Pete Fornatale.
