Event Information
JEAN GENIE - the World's No.1 live tribute to DAVID BOWIE.
Featuring John Mainwaring whose vocal and visual tribute to Bowie is totally outstanding.
Jean Genie will be performing classics like 'Life on Mars', 'Starman' and (appropriately) 'Jean Genie' with same tenacity, flamboyance and fashion as the late great legend himself!
Jean Genie was created by John Mainwaring and John Ford in 1993. An original recording artist in his own right, John Mainwaring has been signed by numerous record companies throughout his career - twice with Warner Bros. In the 1980s David Bowie's world famous producer Tony Visconti produced some of John's songs when he was signed to WEA.
John has worked with many household names such as with Jarvis Cocker on his 'Bad Cover Version' single, singing and starring in the video.
In the late 1990s John was approached by David Bowie's most famous band of the 1970s, 'The Spiders from Mars' and was asked by them if he'd front the band and tour with them. Obviously John's answer was 'Yes' and John remains to this day to be one of only a few tribute artists to tour and perform with an original artist's band.
Featuring David Bowie's Greatest hits including:
Space Oddity, Jean Genie, Starman, Rebel Rebel, Let's Dance, Under Pressure, Modern Love, Life On Mars, Young Americans and many many more classic hits!
