Jeff Beck

Depp performs Jimi Hendrix and Marvin Gaye covers with rock guitarist, days after concluding arguments in US case against Amber Heard.

Footage from that performance, part of McCartney’s live set since 2013, has been screened during McCartney’s US tour amid the Depp trial, though McCartney has not commented on the case. On releasing their version of Isolation in 2020, Beck said: “Johnny and I have been working on music together for a while now and we recorded this track during our time in the studio last year … you’ll be hearing more from Johnny and me in a little while”. There have been no further releases since Isolation, however. Heard has countersued.

Johnny Depp jetted over to England to make a surprise appearance alongside friend Jeff Beck at his show in Sheffield at the weekend.

Film star joined Mr Beck on stage ahead of the verdict in his US defamation case against his ex-wife Amber Heard.

Ms Heard, 36, countersued for $100 million (£79 million), saying Mr Depp smeared her when his lawyer called her accusations a "hoax". It comes as Mr Depp, 58, sues Ms Heard for $50 million (£39 million) for defamation after she called herself "a public figure representing domestic abuse" in an article for the Washington Post in 2018. "Wasn’t expecting this," one attendee wrote on Instagram. "I thought he was in court but turns out he’s in Sheffield with Jeff Beck."

Jeff Beck is a legend of the British rock scene – and he was recently in Sheffield!

After the dissolution of The Jeff Beck Group, Beck embarked on several side projects, including returning to his rhythm and blues roots – the genre that began his love affair with music.

It's the second time in two days the actor has performed on stage, as a jury weighs his defamation case over his ex-wife's abuse allegations.

Heard has filed a $100 million counter-claim, accusing him of smearing her reputation with statements from his former lawyer that claimed she had perpetrated a “hoax”. Depp’s visit to the UK – where a High Court judge ruled in 2020 that a newspaper’s reference to him as a “wife-beater” was “substantially true” – comes just days after arguments finished in the trial in Fairfax, Virginia. The pair released a cover of John Lennon track “Isolation” in 2020, with Beck teasing at the time that “you’ll be hearing more from Johnny and me” – though no further tracks from the pair have been released.
