Led Zeppelin Masters – the all Australian production featuring Adelaide’s Zep Boys and The Black Dog Orchestra – returns to the Sydney Opera House in January 2019 before heading off to tour UK and Europe.
Now in its 4th year, Led Zeppelin Masters has gone from strength to strength and has become an international touring juggernaut. Having played across all Australian capital cities over the last 3 years – including multiple shows in Sydney, Melbourne and Brisbane – this tour ventured on its first international tour in April 2017, taking the music of Led Zeppelin back to their homeland and playing across the UK, cumulating in the prestigious London Palladium for a sold out show that raised the roof off this iconic building.
Fronted by ZEP BOYS powerhouse vocalist Vince Contarino and bolstered by the breathtaking might of the thirty-piece Black Dog Orchestra, Led Zeppelin Masters features twenty Led Zeppelin classics.
From the raw, metallic blues of Whole Lotta Love to the epic Stairway to Heaven and the sheer exhilaration of Kashmir, Led Zeppelin Masters celebrates the timeless musical legacy of Jimmy Page, Robert Plant, John Bonham and John Paul Jones,
with a no-holds-barred concert performing the masterpieces of Led Zeppelin.
What makes Stairway to Heaven: Led Zeppelin Masters unique is the addition of the 30-piece Black Dog orchestra, which enhances the anthemic Led Zeppelin guitar riffs with a power wall of strings, woodwind and brass resulting in a truly epic musical experience.
Music fans and reviewers were equally blown away and left wanting more as the Australians put on a Led Zeppelin music experience like no other:

Since 1986, Adelaide’s Zep Boys have carved a unique place among the most flawless and passionate hard rock outfits to carry the Zeppelin flame across Australia and the UK.
With dramatically up-scaled production and note-perfect commitment unsurpassed in Zep-lore, this is their moment to make rock’n’roll history. Vince’s vocals are loud, committed and passionate. The band is tight and note perfect on those instrumental solos and performances Led Zeppelin were renown for.
