In the Spirit of Lennon – An intimate acoustic evening celebrating the life and music of John Lennon

The Sun Kings’ Drew Harrison will present In the Spirit of Lennon, his solo tribute to John Lennon and interpretation of Lennon’s music. Drew goes beyond just sounding like him, but captures the intensity that Lennon brought to the Beatles music as well as his own. This intimate and emotional performance has been seen and heard nationwide, in South America and in Europe. Drew has been invited to perform In the Spirit of Lennon at the Latin American Beatles Fest in Buenos Aires and in Louisville, KY where he performed at Abbey Road on the River, both solo as well as with The Sun Kings. He was also invited to perform at the International Beatles Week in Liverpool, and will be performing at Abbey Road on the River this Labor Day Weekend in Washington DC.

His most recent endeavor in addition to The Sun Kings is a full band tribute to Lennon. The Plastic Fauxno Band debuted their concert, Love Is the Answer – The Concert for John Lennon, on Lennon’s 70th birthday to stellar reviews and critical acclaim. This emotional and passionate performance is Drew’s vision of what Lennon’s concert might have been like had he toured in 1982 as he was planning to do.

Drew is a UC Berkeley grad where he earned a degree in Peace and Conflict Studies. This, too, was a result of Lennon’s ideals and influence.

In the Spirit of Lennon is a must-not-miss for all Lennon, Beatles, and Sun Kings fans!
