Neil Tudor, McCartney Lookalike and Tribute. Biography and performance details

Neil is a native “Merseysider”, born in Liverpool England in June 1961, a
Gemini like Paul, it is his home city.

He is naturally left handed, although like many left- handed musicians, he
spent many years playing right- handedly. For “authenticity” Neil re –
learned left hand bass for his work as Paul.

Blessed with the “face” of Paul, he is the official “stand –in” having
doubled for him on two music videos: Dance Tonight 2007, and in a
promo for JBL speakers, and his single “My Valentine” February 2012.

As the “go-to” guy whenever “Paul” is needed, he has worked extensively
on TV around Europe, advertising anything from Croatian beers to bluetooth head sets, from TV drama documentaries like “McCartney v
McCartney” on channel 4, to comedy TV shows in Spain and Portugal.

Musically, Neil is as much at home portraying Paul as he is now in 2017, as he is playing the
happy “moptop” of the 60’s.

In April 2011 he toured the USA with The Reunion Beatles,
creating a fantasy concert scenario, where all four Beatles were
alive and well, and playing music together.

In July 2011 he was honoured to play Paul, in the world
renowned “Legends In Concert” show in Connecticut USA, at
the Foxwood Theatre, with the Moptop Beatles.

Neil joined The Silver Beatles in September 2012, and was part of the band that toured Germany from
January until March 2013, with the successful, “Yesterday” show.

In 2014, Neil was officially affiliated with Hofner, the Bavarian company that makes Paul's
iconic “Violin” bass guitar and is featured on their artistes roster.
Neil was chosen to play "Paul" in Europe's best known Tribute show "Stars In Concert" at the
Estrelle Hotel Berlin in 2015.

In late 2015 he hooked up with the German based Beatle tribute band "The BE4TLES", and
travels to and from Germany to gig with them throughout the year in Germany, Belgium
and Holland.

In 2019, he joined one of the longest standing Beatle Tribute bands in the U.K. The Cheatles,
based in the North West.

In December 2021 they played for the G7 summit, at the world famous “Beatle Story” at The
Albert Dock, for the gathering of political leaders.

He continues to play in England as well with his own group “The Paul McCartney
Anthology" a tribute to Paul, The Beatles and Wings, as well as doing a “solo” act as Paul.
