James Lynch is the ultimate John Lennon tribute artist. With his natural resemblance to Lennon, Lynch gives a stunningly accurate portrayal whether as the acerbic-witted mop top, the psychedelic dream weaver or the politically-sensitive artist of the post-Beatle era.
Lynch, who portrays Lennon in the award-winning Beatles tribute band British Export, has performed as the late Beatle across the universe from coast-to-coast and on three continents.
A superbly-talented guitarist, Lynch is equally adept on bass, piano and keyboards, and his spot-on vocal stylings are spine-tingling whether belting out rockers like Slow Down or crooning ballads like Imagine.
Backed by a talented band that includes David Maloy, on bass, Dave Zenner on piano and keyboards, and Sabrina Lynch on drums, Strawberry Fields Forever covers the entire gamut of the Lennon Legacy from the pre-fab days at the Cavern Club through the Beatle era plus the post-Beatle solo years as if Lennon himself was touring today.

Just came back from seeing the band at Party on the Patio in Arlington Heights- loved every minute of it! This band is amazing! It was my first show but it certainly won't be my last. I liked how you included some non-Lennon songs, such as Lucille and Johnny B. Goode, as well as my favorites "One After 909," "Hey Bulldog," and "Just Like Starting Over. "
