Andre Barreau (16 April 1956 – 25 August 2023[1]) was a British musician who was a member of The Bootleg Beatles, in which he played George Harrison from the group's formation in March 1980 until his departure in 2017.

Following the final show of the West End musical Beatlemania, Barreau formed The Bootleg Beatles with fellow cast members Neil Harrison and David Catlin-Birch. The band invested their dwindling finances in two guitars – an Epiphone and a Gretsch – as well as two Vox amplifiers, four black polo-necks and a wig.[3]

Barreau left the performing lineup of the band in 2017 but continued with the show's production. His death was announced on 25 August 2023.[4]

Andre Barreau died in August 2023, at the age of 67.[5]
