About
The Fabulous Blues Brothers is a tribute show for hire in Brisbane, QLD.
Brad Kendrick plays Joliet Jake, Tristan James takes Elwood, and Asabi Goodman, whose credits include Chicago and Hairspray, brings Aretha Franklin into the room. The Brisbane show runs from Shake a Tail Feather, Soul Man, Gimme Some Lovin', Jailhouse Rock and Rawhide through to Sweet Home Chicago and Minnie the Moocher, then hands the stage to Respect, Think and Natural Woman. Gospel breakdowns, hard blues riffs, no gaps. The production scales from small clubs up to theatres and festivals, and they'll work through the stage and sound details with your venue beforehand. Insured, with Blue Card and Yellow Card accreditation.
Watch
The show
Brad Kendrick plays Joliet Jake and Tristan James takes Elwood, with Asabi Goodman bringing Aretha Franklin into the room. The set runs Shake a Tail Feather, Soul Man, Gimme Some Lovin', Jailhouse Rock and Rawhide, through Sweet Home Chicago and Minnie the Moocher, then hands the stage over for Respect, Think and Natural Woman. Gospel breakdowns, hard blues riffs, and very little dead air between them. It's played as a stage show with the costumes and the presence that go with it, not a covers set with hats on.
On the day
The production is built to scale, from small clubs up through theatres and festivals, so the stage and technical setup gets matched to your venue rather than fixed in advance. Send them your venue's details ahead of time and they'll work through the staging and sound with the room's own people. That conversation is worth having early, because what a festival stage needs and what a club corner needs are different jobs.
