Roll out the nostalgia, mix it up with some of the finest and most enduring music of a generation and you have the sweetest recipe for the biggest party night on the calendar.

Since 2005 when the show debuted at The Basement, Barry has been leading this all-star nine-piece band of Sydney's best singers and musicians in a show that pays tribute to some of the world's favourite bands from the 60s and 70s: The Doobie Brothers, The Eagles, Crosby Stills Nash & Young, Santana and more.

One of Australia's all-time great singers, Barry Leef has featured on over 170 TV and radio advertisements during 20 years as Sydney's number one session vocalist. He has also fronted legendary Aussie bands Bakery and Supermarket, led the in-house band at Sydney's Musician's club during the 70s and 80s and performed with international artists such as: Frank Zappa, Elvin Bishop, Jimmy Smith, Jeff "Skunk" Baxter and most of Australia's best artists and musicians.

While Barry had this show in mind for some time, the key to kick starting the venture was discovering vocalist Kimi Tupaea, who has the remarkable capacity to sound very much like one of the world's most unique voices, Mike McDonald, whose entry into The Doobie Brothers in the late 70's reignited their success with a second wave of big chart hits such as Takin' It to the Streets, What a Fool Believes, Little Darlin', and Minute by Minute.

Every song in the show is a proven favourite with audiences who grew up with this music and have now passed it on to a new generation of fans.
