About the Band
Band on the Run is a live concert experience inspired by Paul McCartney’s own legendary touring shows — drawing from the most beloved songs of The Beatles, Wings, and Paul’s solo career. This is not a costume act or an impersonation show. The focus is on musical authenticity, powerful vocals, and the kind of crowd connection that only comes from songs people have loved their whole lives.
From the anthemic rush of Live and Let Die to the sing-along joy of Hey Jude, every song in the set is chosen to resonate with audiences of all ages — delivering the timeless McCartney catalog with care, energy, and genuine joy.
The musicians behind Band on the Run are well-known to Colorado’s live music scene. Band members have spent years performing together in other local projects — including Paradise Theatre, Forever Man, and Rubber Souls — and bring decades of collective stage experience to this new venture. You may not have seen them under this name yet, but you know what they deliver.
“Not a look-alike. Not a tribute act playing dress-up.
Just timeless songs, performed with care and power.”

Lily Bjorklund
Vocals
With roots as an acoustic singer-songwriter and three decades of vocal performance behind her, Lily brings depth and warmth to the McCartney catalog. Her background in musical theatre and her experience in Denver’s tribute scene make her a natural fit for material that demands both range and heart.
Jeff Banach

Dylan has spent years playing in and around the Denver music scene, covering everything from small neighborhood bars to packed local stages. His influences span classic British invasion, 70s arena rock, and beyond — and that range shows up in his playing: faithful where it matters, energetic where it counts, and always fun.

A Boulder native, multi-instrumentalist, songwriter, and composer with over three decades of experience across bands, studio sessions, and film and stage productions. David holds a B.A. in music composition and anchors the rhythm section with the kind of musical intuition that only comes from a lifetime of serious playing.
