The Band

The Bowie Unzipped band features Australia’s best musicians including the legendary Jeff Duff on Vocals and Glenn Rhodes on Keyboards, Bass and Vocals, plus Australia’s finest drummers and guitarists.

Jeff Duff

Vocals

I don’t think it’s overstating the case to say that, had Jeff Duff hailed from a country in the top half of the world, he could now be as acknowledged and acclaimed as David Bowie or Lou Reed or Iggy Pop. Glenn A Baker.

Glenn Rhodes

Keyboards/Bass/Vocals

As well as working with some of the biggest names in the industry Glenn Rhodes is an exceptional artist in his own right, performing, writing and recording locally and internationally with artists such as Margaret Urlich, Ian Moss, Albert Lee, Dione Warwick and Thelma Houston.

Reviews & Testimonials

The band is led by Glenn Rhodes on keyboards and bass keyboards and featured Gordan Rytmeister on drums and Paul Berton on guitar. Given that Bowie toured with a band of about eight musicians, this trio deliver an impressively full sound.

Flamboyant, eccentric, charming and with a stunning voice!…Jeff Duff is one of the greatest entertainers Australia has produced.

Duff commented at one stage that given the stretch of human history, we should consider ourselves fortunate to have lived in the same era as Bowie, and he is right. But here in Australia, we are doubly fortunate to have arguably the best interpreter of Bowie sashaying amongst us.

Sinatra, Presley, Jagger, Popeye and now Duffo.

The show is more than just music. Duff’s quick wit and irreverence brought plenty of humour.

Jeff Duff is one of the most innovative and unique performers in this country
