About This Event

On Sunday 26 July 2026, The Core Theatre Solihull will host The Searchers Experience, a live concert tribute to the iconic 1960s Merseybeat band. Spencer James, who has fronted The Searchers for 37 years, leads the performance with a full band, faithfully recreating the group’s signature jangly guitar sound and tight harmonies. The setlist draws from their extensive catalogue of hits, including *Needles and Pins* and *Sugar and Spice*, capturing the energy of the original recordings on stage. The intimate theatre setting allows the crisp, ringing tones of the Rickenbacker guitars to fill the room, while James’s seasoned vocals carry the nostalgic weight of the era. Ticket prices are available on the venue’s website.
