The concert experience
Not a sequence of hits. A reconstructed concert experience.
In the mid-1970s, Paul McCartney stepped back onto the world stage with Wings at full flight. The landmark Wings Over the World concerts moved from the explosive power of “Live and Let Die” and “Band on the Run” to intimate moments at the piano and the acoustic warmth of the band gathered at the front of the stage.
The McCartney Years brings that experience back to life. Every performance is completely live, using period-correct instruments and equipment, original arrangements, vocal harmonies, wardrobe and staging to recreate how those concerts sounded, looked and felt.
Wings favourites, solo classics and Beatles songs McCartney returned to during this era all share the stage. Since 2007, more than 800 performances have brought over half a million audience members into the music and excitement of McCartney’s greatest live era.
