Patchwork


Since 1995 the four professional musicians of the band Patchwork have been performing two types of tribute concerts in France and abroad.
Patchwork is a French cover band from Grenoble. At the moment they're not really popular in Europe only in France but who knows maybe they will someday.

The Legends of Rock
This show is a flash voyage through the last fifty years of Rock and Pop music. Rediscover the  rebellious rhythms of the fifties, the gentle, sparkling melodies of the sixties, the "flower-power"guitar riffs of the seventies as well as the powerful sounds of the eighties up to the present.
From their masterful musical interpretation to the authentic precision in costume, scenic movement and props, Patchwork reincarnates the legendary artists who left their indelible mark on Rock History: Elvis Presley, the Beatles, the Rolling Stones, Led Zeppelin, Queen, AC/DC, U2, Lenny Kravitz, Red Hot Chili Peppers...

Yesterday... The Beatles
This show resumes the career of the Beatles. From Love me do in 1962, to Let it be in 1970, Patchwork skips through the milestones of the "Fab Four's" repertoire interpreting the greatest of their legendary hits. 
Alternating the group's black retro-style suits with their famous technicolor "Sergeant Pepper’s" uniforms, Patchwork takes you away into the magic universe of the boys from Liverpool..

  1. They sound pretty good. I liked the cover of Twist and Shout a lot, but I didn't like the one of Let It Be. I think that song was so beautiful when the Beatles sang it. He changed it up a little but his version wasn't so good.-AW

  2. A more fun approach to cover versions. Check out Weird Al Jankovic.
