Shine On: the Universe of John Lennon is a spectacular group performing music by John Lennon and the Beatles uniquely arranged by Michael Occhipinti. The musicians in the group collectively boast over 20 Juno Award nominations.
Michael Occhipinti is no stranger to reinventing popular music, having received Juno nominations for his albums Creation Dream - The Songs of Bruce Cockburn and The Sicilian Jazz Project, and he’s also arranged Pink Floyd’s Dark Side of the Moon for his 5-time Juno nominated big band NOJO (Neufeld-Occhipinti Jazz Orchestra).
Inventive takes on “I Am The Walrus” and “Working Class Hero” to surprising versions of “I’m Only Sleeping,” “Instant Karma,” the Universe of John Lennon uniquely makes the familiar new. Shine On is a genre-crossing group that is a tribute like no other.
