INSTANT KARMA at the very steamy 2006 Abbey Road on the River in Louisville, Kentucky.
...is led by lead singer Jay Goeppner, who has been singing as John Lennon for over 25 years. He is an energetic, award-winning sound-alike who has a passion for the music of John Lennon that shines through in every performance. When you hear him sing, you get a sense that John Lennon is in the room with you. This is a reflection of the love and passion he has for John and his music.
You may have heard him on the Jonathan Brandmeier Radio Show, the Steve Dahl and Garry Meier show, Kevin Matthews and Breakfast With The Beatles. Or you may have seen him on television programs such as the WGN News, FOX Television News, NBC Channel 5 News, The Norman Mark Show on NBC and several cable shows.As a solo entertainer and, for 15 years, as "The Beatle Brothers", Jay also has performed far and wide...at the opening ceremonies at the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in Cleveland, Ohio in 1995 and 1997, and has sung in such places as Rome, Africa and Munich, Germany.
Last year, Jay and Instant Karma travelled to Liverpool, England to perform at The International Beatle Week Festival, and from the first time he stepped up to the microphone at The Cavern to sing "Jealous Guy" with Hal Bruce, he became one of the festival's favorite singers...capturing the spirit and power of John Lennon! Instant Karma will be at International Beatle Week this year as well!
Come out and see why this energetic performer is hailed as one of the world's best John Lennon celebrators...he will leave you wanting more and more!!! Just watching him perform, will exhaust you!
THE MUSIC
Instant Karma takes you on a Magical Mystery Tour through the life and music of John Lennon.
The band covers his whole career from his "Teddy Boy" roots and 1950's Rock and Roll influences, to his signature Beatles era, all the way up through his solo career...from The Plastic Ono Band to his Double Fantasy/Milk and Honey Albums.At an Instant Karma show you will hear songs like "Starting Over", "Imagine", "Mind Games", "..9 Dream", "Jealous Guy". You will hear the John Lennon hits and the obscure songs such as "Isolation", "God", "Mother" and "Out of the Blue", to name a few. Of course, at an Instant Karma show you are guaranteed to hear the John Lennon/Beatles hits like "In My Life", Strawberry Fields Forever", "Lucy In The Sky With Diamonds", "Help", "I Am The Walrus", "I Wanna Hold Your Hand", and many more. The songs are played with lots of love and affection and with great respect to our Musical Hero.
