🎷🎤 The Blues Brothers & Aretha – LIVE at The Empire! 🎤🎷
✨ Feel the power of Rhythm & Blues as Jake and Elwood are once again on a mission from God to get the band back together in Magnifico Live’s production of "The Blues Brothers & Aretha". Join Brad Kendrick as Joliet Jake, Tristan James as Elwood Blues and Asabi Goodman (Chicago/Hairspray) as Aretha Franklin in this not-to-be-missed Father’s Day weekend concert event. 🎺🎹🥁
✨ Whether you’re a die-hard Blues Brothers fan of the original 1980 movie or simply want to show Dad you love him with the perfect Father’s Day gift, join us at The Empire for over two hours of authentic blues and soul, driven by the nine-piece 'Fabulous Blues Brothers Band'.
✨ Sing along to Blues Brothers hits like 'Shake a Tail Feather,' 'Soul Man,' 'Gimme Some Lovin’,' 'Jailhouse Rock,' and 'Rawhide,' then feel Asabi Goodman’s soul and gospel with Aretha Franklin classics 'Respect,' 'Think,' '(You Make Me Feel) Like a Natural Woman,' and many more! Full of gospel-tinged breakdowns and heart-pounding blues riffs, this high-octane revue delivers nonstop fun.
✨ American-born Asabi Goodman brings soul and gospel to the stage, having dazzled as Matron “Mama” Morton in the Australian national tour of CHICAGO and lit up the spotlight as Motormouth Maybelle in the 2022–23 tour of Hairspray! The Musical. Also fresh from his acclaimed turn as Jean Valjean in the 2023 Choral Society production of Les Misérables, Brad Kendrick has been performing in Blues Brothers productions for over 20 years, notably at Universal Studios Japan and on several cruise lines. Rounding out our police lineup is Tristan James, this time trading his Elvis jumpsuit for Elwood’s signature shades and deadpan charm.
🎺 "The Blues Brothers & Aretha" is a Blues Brothers & Aretha Franklin Tribute Show.
🎁 Looking for the perfect Father's Day gift or just a fun night out dressed in your favourite Blues Brothers outfits? This high-energy show is the ultimate night out — a concert experience full of heart-pounding blues, gospel soul, and unstoppable fun!
