They have played theatres\, festivals a nd venues throughout the UK for the past 12 years\, with Paul Henderson pe rforming as David Bowie\, with audiences commenting how eerily close his v oice\, moves and mannerisms are to that as Bowie.\n\nPaul Henderson was bo rn in Sunderland but spent most of his childhood growing up in Peterboroug h when he discovered Bowie\, which led to buying and playing everything an d watching everything available countless times. Paul started in music pla ying in local bands in the late 80’s and then embarking on his own mater ial during the mid 90’s to 2002.\n\nBeing a life long fan of Bowie\, Pau l got to see him on tour numerous occasions and very briefly met him in 19 97 during his Earthling tour.\n\nPaul first caught national attention when he appeared on Stars In Their Eyes in 1993\, the first series hosted by M athew Kelly\, where he performed Space Oddity\, dressed as Bowie’s legen dary Ziggy Stardust. From there he performed at conventions around the cou ntry as Bowie.\n\nAfter 1995 Paul embarked on playing his own material and spent the late 90’s recording his own songs. Around 2002 a friend asked Paul “why don’t you put a Bowie tribute together”. Paul replied say ing “I would enjoy it too much and everything else I am planning will en d up on the back burner”\, and so it did as the start of Aladdin Sane wa s in the midst.\n\nAladdin Sane was the classic album that David released in 1973\, which was the first album Bowie album Paul got as a child from h is parents\, hence why he chose the name for the band.\n\nPaul then embark ed on finding the musicians required to cover a vast range of David Bowie ’s single and classic album tracks. The line up of the band changed duri ng the 2000s and now with Steve Beeston on keyboards\, Carl Stones on guit ar\, Franco Caprio on bass and Rick Cook on drums and Paul as Bowie with 1 2 string acoustic\, make up the sound of Aladdin Sane the band it is today .\n\nHaving played at some wonderful theatres and travelled to places like Bahrain\, Qatar and Berlin where Paul played an acoustic set at Hansa stu dios where Bowie recorded Heroes\, he said it’s like an ongoing rollerco aster.\n\nWith so many songs to chose from you can hear many hits like – Space Oddity. Changes\, Ashes to Ashes\, Heroes\, Lets Dance\, Drive In S aturday\, Jean Genie\, Life On Mars\, Fame\, Starman and Diamond Dogs to l ist but a few\, including some classic album tracks from Bowie’s vast re pertoire.\n\nPaul changes outfits during each show which can stem from any of Bowies tours from 1976 to 2003.\n\nThe songs are mixed with no chronol ogical order so that the audiences are left wondering what could be next a fter each song which also gives the show a more exciting feel.
