Creedence rocks Warwick

By Emily-Rose Toohey

Sixties rock band Creedence Clearwater Revival was brought to life at Warwick RSL on Saturday night.

Jabba Entertainment’s cover band with lead vocalist Andre Lemberg in John Fogerty’s position played to a sold out crowd who enjoyed the music and spent the night dancing to the band’s greatest hits.

Aside from the impressive vocals, guitar, and drum playing by the four band members, the high quality sound and lights were key in creating the mood and providing the audience with hours of professional entertainment.

However, the older skewing crowd started out shy before more and more attendees gained the confidence to take to the dance floor to pull out their best moves.

Merchandise was for sale, including t-shirts and stubby holders, and guitarist Nathan Ward spoke about how long the band had been trying to get to Warwick before the Covid-19 pandemic restricted any tours.

It’s more important than ever to support musicians and live music as they have been hit particularly hard over the past few years due to the pandemic.

This was shown by the crowd who were certainly thriving from the music, shouting ‘one more’ to the band after they’d taken their final bows.

As a result, two more songs were performed before the night’s end close to midnight – and what a fun night had by all.
