ONE of the world’s biggest and best tributes to the legendary Blues Brothers will be coming to Redditch's Palace Theatre.

The award-winning Chicago Blues Brothers present Motown Mission, a two hour high energy, all-singing, all-dancing songfest featuring more than 40 smash hits – many of which were featured in the Blues Brothers films – performed live in concert.

Fronting the nine-piece band is Chris Hindle as Joliet ‘Jake’ Blues and Gareth Davey as Elwood Blues.

Chris, who also serves as the show’s musical arranger and producer, said: “One of the things I love about being a Chicago Blues Brother is the chance to carry on the legacy of the legendary John Belushi as Jake Blues; he was a crazy, funny guy who was unpredictable and wild – very much like me.

"Motown Mission is a great show – we perform original music from the Blues Brothers films as well as many hits from the 50s, 60s, and 70s and wherever we go, audiences know most of the numbers – it’s a total blast from start to finish."

Jake and Elwood are joined onstage by a live band, brass section, and backup vocalists, not to mention a Blues Brothers-style set.

The show is on Friday, September 7 at 7.30pm.

It captures the sound, energy, humour and characters that propelled John Landis’ classic 1980 film to worldwide fame.

The Blues Brothers starred John Belushi, Dan Aykroyd, Carrie Fisher, Aretha Franklin, James Brown, Cab Calloway, Ray Charles and many more and achieved worldwide cult status.
