“The latest line-up of the show, produced as ever by Phil Aldridge, features Tony Kiley (formerly from 80s sensations The Blow Monkeys) on drums, Trevor Newnham (Dr Hook) vocals and bass, Greg Webb vocals and guitars, Mike Baker vocals, guitars and keys and Garreth Hicklin vocals, guitars and keys.

“Garreth, Greg, Trevor and Mike effortlessly capture the vocal style and delivery of Eagles Henley, Walsh, Fry, Schmidt and Meisner, and are all masters of their respective instruments.

Extremely tight harmonies and an acute attention to detail are synonymous with The Illegal Eagles, now in their 28th year on the road.
