PAUL ROTHAFEL GUITAR/VOCALS
Paul is not one but many voices of the 60’s you will hear when you see the Fake Four perform. Not only does he love playing the role of John Lennon with the Fake Four Showband, he just happens to sound and look like the great man himself.
No matter what city or venue they perform in, everyone who goes to watch the band they always call him the Beatle. Paul first started impersonating John way back in 1991, when he was in his last year of high school, being the class clown and starting his first Beatle band with some school mates.
Based in Newcastle he put together and played in a few 60’s bands and one he played in at the time is where he first met Andrew Hill, who was the Paul McCartney and producer of the Australian Beatles show and Sixtiesmania, a group back then that toured all over the world.
