Tubular Bells Live!

Following the success of his sell-out tribute concerts to Mike Oldfield’s career and the multimillion selling Tubular Bells, Phil Toms and his Tubular Band performed an exciting series of UK sold out tour dates in 2018 – the 45th Anniversary of Tubular Bells. They are looking forward gigging again in 2021! Thanks to our superfans from around the world and our sponsors!

The 13-strong band features vocalists Matilda Bourne and Matyas Bacso, guitarists Jay Stapley (Tubular Bells II premiere and tour), Steve Smith and James Stirling, Mike McGibney on bass, Rich Nolan on kit with Adam Morris on percussion. Phil’s keyboard and piano team includes Mark Pulman, Emma Nash and Mark Roberts (also on trumpet) with Hannah Wainwright on flutes and sax. Phil plays synths, vocoder and Tubular Bells! Right hand man Guy Eade and sound operator Josh Bobby complete the band.
