Introduction:
Barry Gibb had never walked alone to the stage before. For the first time, the last living Bee Gee was embarking on a solo tour, starting in Boston’s TD Garden. “It means everything to me,” Barry said—music was all he’d ever known.
From humble beginnings in Australia with his twin brothers, Robin and Maurice, the Bee Gees created an unmistakable sound, producing hits like those on the Saturday Night Fever soundtrack, which topped charts and sold 40 million copies.
Barry’s wife, Linda, helped him return to the stage after Maurice’s death in 2003 and Robin’s passing in 2012. Grief had weighed heavily on him, but performing became a path to healing. Joined by his son Stephen and niece Samantha, Barry brought new life to classics like How Can You Mend a Broken Heart.
On stage, his voice—especially his falsetto—remains unmistakable. While Barry still struggles with the loss of his brothers, their memories fuel his passion. Audiences continue to embrace him, and this new chapter feels like a spiritual rebirth. “It hurts every day,” he says, “but I feel alive again.”
