About
Gavin
(pictured)
Gavin Pring formed the band in 2003, naming the band
after a photo he saw of George Harrison with his father,
Harry. Within months the band appeared at The Mathew
Street Festival to 5,000 people, and many other large
events. More recently, GHS have been booked for a
live BBC radio show and are headlining a special Eastern
themed event (organised by Atrium) at the Pacific
Bar, Liverpool.
Their
Set
The
band
faithfully
celebrates
the
life
and
works
of
George
Harrison,
covering
his
global
and
unforgettable
hits
such
as
'Something',
'If
I
Needed
Someone',
and
'While
My
Guitar
Gently
Weeps'.
The band draw their set from two main sources- The
1991 'Rock Legends Tour' that George Harrison performed
with Eric Clapton, and the fitting tribute Eric Clapton
directed for George at the Albert Hall- 'Concert for
George'.
The
latter
saw
the
talents
of
stars
such
as
Jeff
Lynne,
Tom
Petty,
Paul
McCartney
and
Billy
Preston
(Beatles
Keyboard
player
on
'Let
it
Be').
Be
uplifted
by
the
rapturous
'My
Sweet
Lord',
then
rock

to
George's
mighty
Beatles
classics
'Taxman',
'Roll
Over
Beethoven',
and
'Old
Brown
Shoe'.
