More information about Imagine Lennon with Tyson Kelly tickets
Tyson Kelly grew up in Los Angeles with music in the blood. His father Tom Kelly co-wrote "Like a Virgin" for Madonna and "True Colors" for Cyndi Lauper. Tyson went the other direction entirely, spending fifteen years becoming only the third person ever to play John Lennon in The Bootleg Beatles since the band formed in 1980, then taking the role to Broadway in Let It Be. He has since built his own show around the Lennon solo catalogue and in October 2025 sold out the Tung Auditorium at the Yoko Ono Lennon Centre in Liverpool on what would have been Lennon's 85th birthday. That is either a remarkable coincidence or exactly the right room for the right show.
Imagine Lennon runs from "Please Please Me" through the Lennon and McCartney era, into the raw honesty of the Imagine album and all the way to Double Fantasy. The set includes ten years of solo hits alongside B-sides that serious fans will recognise and first-timers will be glad to discover. Tyson brings first-hand stories and insights into the music throughout, which gives the evening something most Lennon shows do not have: a sense of what these songs actually meant to the man writing them.
A five-piece live band backs the show throughout. Expect "Imagine", "Jealous Guy", "Working Class Hero" and "Woman" alongside deeper cuts from a catalogue that has never stopped mattering.
The venue features a refined restaurant, four exclusive private dining rooms, the distinguished 1st Floor Bar, an extensive whisky and wine selection, a sophisticated Cigar Lounge and an inviting Heated Garden Terrace - making it a haven for discerning patrons seeking the finest in dining, music and atmosphere. On weekends, the vibrant first-floor bar and terrace come to life with DJ Nights, adding another dimension to the Boisdale experience.
Experience an unforgettable and intimate evening celebrating the legacy of John Lennon brought to life by Kelly, renowned for his striking portrayal of Lennon in Broadway's "Let It Be" and in the UK & World's #1 Beatles Tribute "The Bootleg Beatles"
With over 15 years of dedication to the role, Kelly's uncanny look and sound-a-like embodies Lennon's voice, presence and artistry with remarkable authenticity having the rare combination of the natural vocal timbre and visual appearance of John Lennon - backed by a five-piece powerhouse band he presents an elegant journey through the brilliant music of Lennon (& McCartney)
This captivating production is a sophisticated homage to one of music's most enduring icons, making it a must-see event for all John Lennon and discerning Beatles fans alike and lovers of timeless songwriting.
