The Yardbirds

The Yardbirds return to the U.S. with a new show and tour featuring all the hits delivered by the dynamic, legendary five-piece band led by founder Jim McCarty (drums, vocals) with John Idan, Godfrey Townsend, Myke Scavone, and Kenny Aaronson. This blistering ensemble brings with them an exciting multimedia infusion of songs and stories from Jim McCarty that draw back the curtain on the history of one of rock music’s most influential and important groups.

 

"For Your Love," “Shapes of Things,” “Heart Full of Soul,” "Over Under Sideways Down" and "I'm a Man," are among the Yardbirds’ worldwide smash hits, but their recorded work includes Blues staples such as "Good Morning Little Schoolgirl” and "I Wish You Would” and the Mose Allison tune "I'm Not Talkin’." Jim McCarty and the band will put the spotlight on the creative fire that exploded when Top Topham, Eric Clapton, Jeff Beck and Jimmy Page held the guitar chair and joined with Jim and lead vocalist Keith Relf, bassist Paul-Samwell Smith, rhythm guitarist and bassist Chris Dreja to build an unparalleled legacy of music.
