Simply Dylan
Simply Dylan is as straightforward as the title suggests: no frills, no gimmicks and no pretence.
Led by front man John O’Connell, the band delivers a tribute to Bob Dylan celebrating the rich and diverse work of the award-winning artist. It is their interpretations, precise playing and high energy renditions of some of Dylan’s back catalogue that has caught the attention of many Bobcats. What started as a modest project in 2011, recognizing Dylan’s 70th Birthday, the success of the band has been remarkable, from selling out the Cavern Club 6 times, to receiving fantastic reviews from audiences across the UK, to opening up the Isle of Wight Festival on the Big Top Stage to performing in Ibiza at the Costa Festival. No ordinary interpretation, this is an exceptional project which promises to delight Dylan fans young and old and to ignite a new wave of passion for one of the world’s most prodigious songwriters.
