Music Bank has just completed a major project for Jeff Beck and Eric Clapton's Together and Apart tour which earned a "simply sensational" four star review from The Independent.
Last Sunday, February 14th, the duo played their second date at London's O2 Arena and Music Bank's backline team was on hand to provide Hammond organs for Jeff Beck's keyboard player Jason Rebello. We also provided various backline equipment for Eric Clapton's set, and the duo and their respective bands used our rehearsal studios in the run-up to the dates.
In front of a packed industry crowd last night we were thrilled, honoured and generally very chuffed to win Favourite Rehearsal Facility at the TPi Awards 2010. For the second year running!
TPi magazine's annual awards is really growing in importance and was profiled yesterday by BBC News. Last night Chris Evans MC'd the show and presented the award to our very own Jimmy Mac. We'll post pictures from the night shortly and, to continue the acceptance speech, thanks to all our valued clients, artists, and supporters!
The world's most popular concert last year - according to the Guinness Book of Records - was rehearsed at, and supported by, Music Bank.
When Robbie Williams played his first concert for three years at London’s Roundhouse in October for the BBC Electric Proms, he smashed a Guinness World Record for the "biggest ever simultaneous screening of a live concert". The rapturously-received show was broadcast live in over 250 cinemas across 23 countries.
Robbie and his band rehearsed at Music Bank in the weeks leading up to the show, using both our North studio and South studio. We also supplied transportation and risers on the day of the gig itself. You can see the rehearsals in progress in a new video, added today to our testimonials page.
