David Robert Jones (8 January 1947 – 10 January 2016), known
professionally as David Bowie was an English singer, songwriter,
musician and actor. Regarded as one of the most influential musicians
of the 20th century, Bowie was acclaimed by critics and musicians,
particularly for his innovative work during the 1970s. His career was
marked by reinvention and visual presentation, and his music and
stagecraft has had a significant impact on popular music.
During his lifetime, Bowie sold over 100 million records worldwide,
making him one of the best- selling musical artists In the UK, he
was awarded nine platinum, eleven gold and eight silver albums,
and in the US, five platinum and nine gold.
Victoria musician Syl Thompson and his band have been paying
tribute to the musical works of David Bowie for more than three
decades. Thompson embodies Bowie’s exquisite style and persona
and has been acclaimed as providing the most credible and
realistic Bowie experience in North America. Six highly respected
musicians play each song as Bowie and his band performed them
live. The look and feel of this concert replicates the Heathen/Reality
Tour. The music spans the broad spectrum of Bowie’s hits from
1969’s Space Oddity to 2013’s Where Are We Now? The show is
eerily close to hearing and seeing Bowie himself.
