   About Jake and Elwood

This show, which celebrates the music and atmosphere of The Blues Brothers, performs to sell-out audiences across the globe.

If you're coming to see the show expect an electrifying night of entertainment with a packed audience dancing to timeless soul and blues numbers such as 'Everybody' and 'Sweet Home Chicago'. During December 2007 the show was altered to fit the festive season and featured brand new musical arrangements by our notorious Black Rhino Band. We'd like to say a big thank you to all our audience members, its you guys joining in and getting up and dancing that makes it such a great family night out.

Speaking about the show Elwood J. Blues said: “People come to see us because they want to have a real good time and let their hair down in a family friendly atmosphere." Powerhouse singer, Joliet Jake Blues, added: “The show has attracted a huge fan base, and audience members dressing up as Blues Brothers characters is the norm. When we have people turn up in costume it’s a real party atmosphere. At one recent show we had a whole rugby team arrive at the theatre dressed as nuns – I don’t think they stopped dancing all night!”

On 23rd December the Jake & Elwood show took its first step out of theatres and into arenas when they raised the roof off Birmingham's NIA Academy. The show tours across the UK throughout the year and we are pleased to announce that we will be continuing with the Christmas parties in 2008. We will be playing the NIA again and other arenas across the UK - details will be posted here as soon as they are confirmed. Thanks again for a great 2007 - see you in 2008! _________________________________________________________________________

Jake & Elwood and their Black Rhino Band are on tour and dates are listed below. They are also available for booking for private functions. If you have an enquiry please contact BLACK RHINO PROMOTIONS
