Tamworth to welcome tribute show

A band dedicated to a world-famous American singer songwriter is set to play in Tamworth this summer.

In a special summertime show, the musical group Simply Dylan will take to the stage at Tamworth’s renowned venue, The Assembly Rooms. Concert halls, clubs and arenas hosting live musical performances will often enlist the help of professional flyer printing services to create branded advertisements for upcoming shows.

The band describes it not as a Bob Dylan tribute act, but instead as a tribute to Dylan. Simply Dylan takes pride in presenting shows with no gimmicks, frills, or pretences. Led by frontman John O’Connell, the band performs setlists composed of the varied and rich back catalogue of America’s folk and rock hero, who had a UK number one as recently as 2020.

Delivering high-energy versions of Dylan’s classic tracks, Simply Dylan was formed in 2011 for the sole purpose of celebrating the musician’s 70th Birthday. However, following positive reviews, the group has gone from strength to strength with sell out shows and opening famous festivals.

Hub review commented:

“Great songs performed by musicians at the top of their game.”


Simply Dylan will now perform live at the Tamworth Assembly Rooms on Corporation Street in Tamworth on Saturday, July 9, between 7:30 pm and 11:00 pm. Tickets for the upcoming show are available priced at £22.50 per person.
