AN EAGLES tribute act will be heading to Basingstoke later this year and residents are encouraged to come along.

Celebrating over 50 years since the formation of the legendary West Coast country rock band the Eagles in 1971, The Illegal Eagles make a welcome return to The Anvil on Wednesday, September 13.

They will be bringing a brand new production, promising more of their trademark musical prowess, acute attention to detail and incredible showmanship.

This critically acclaimed show features the very best from the Eagles’ catalogue of classics including Hotel California, Desperado, Take It Easy, New Kid In Town, Life In The Fast Lane and many more.

The latest all-star line-up of the show features Tony Kiley (formerly from The Blow Monkeys) on drums, Trevor Newnham (Dr Hook) vocals and bass, Greg Webb vocals and guitars, Mike Baker vocals, guitars and keys and Garreth Hicklin vocals, guitars and keys.

Extremely tight harmonies and acute attention to detail are synonymous with The Illegal Eagles, now in their 24th year on the road. Garreth, Greg, Trevor and Mike effortlessly capture the vocal style and delivery of Henley, Walsh, Fry, Schmidt and Meisner and are all masters of their respective instruments. They have established themselves as the ultimate celebration of The Eagles.
