The songs of ELO are grandiose and ingenious. No wonder, they were all written by musical extraordinaire Jeff Lynne.
The Electric Light Orchestra and its frontman Lynne are celebrated as one of the most influential rock bands in music history.
Typical for the band’s style is an intoxicating symbiosis of catchy energetic rock sounds and noble classical sounds.
Phil Bates has presented the musical fascination of the Electric Light Orchestra live worldwide as a singer and guitarist for over 20 years with ELO Part 2 and its successor formation THE ORCHESTRA.
In 2011 he formed his own band and uses the virtuosity of a classical string ensemble, the power of an outstanding live band and his own musical and vocal perfection to bring new and fresh timbres to the music of the ELO.
The result: over 500 successful concerts, worldwide dates, enthusiastic audiences, standing ovations, fantastic feedback.
