ABOUT US

Timeless Songs, Unforgettable Nights

Be part of the magic as the Van Morrison Alumni Band brings your favourite classics to life in a night defined by shared emotion. From the moment the house lights dim, the atmosphere builds into something truly special. This is an immersive journey where the performers and the audience become one. This is live music that moves, inspires and resonates long after the lights come up.

The Live Experience

Our shows are about more than just a setlist. They are a total sensory experience. From the first note to the final encore, every event is fuelled by the energy of the room. Expect raw passion, contagious rhythms and an electric atmosphere that sets this apart from any standard tribute. Every performance unfolds uniquely, shaped by the mood of the crowd and the magic of the moment.

As Heard in Film and Television

The music of Van Morrison has provided the heartbeat for iconic cinema and television, from Bridget Jones’s Diary to Belfast. These are the songs you know and love, performed live by the musicians who toured and recorded with Van Morrison himself. Every note reflects the first-hand experience of these musicians, offering an authenticity that transports the audience back to the source.

Residency at the Emerald Theatre and Touring Shows

Our home base is the Emerald Theatre at 8 Victoria Embankment, a stunning riverside location where we have built a vibrant community of fans who return time and again to experience the Van Morrison Alumni Band. In this beautiful setting overlooking the Thames, the music and lighting combine with the energy of the crowd to create a truly special night. We also perform exclusive touring shows, bringing that same high level of production and spirit to audiences across the country.

Cultural Pedigree

This is not a standard tribute. This is authentic Van Morrison music performed by the original touring and recording musicians. Our band has collectively performed thousands of shows worldwide and has appeared on hundreds of Van Morrison recording credits. Elite players across brass, keys, rhythm and vocals bring each song to life, led by musical director Leo Green, a long-time collaborator with Van Morrison. Produced by Showtime Group, the Van Morrison Alumni Band is part of a wider portfolio of world-class live music experiences, combining exceptional musicianship with outstanding live production.

 

Our Mission

We honour the songs that have defined generations, but most importantly, we prioritise the human experience. We invite you into a night of high-calibre musicianship and storytelling. It is a shared journey through a legendary catalogue and an event you will truly never forget.
