The Sixties Show Is Back

The Suffolk welcomes back The Sixties Show on Friday, October 25, at 8 p.m. Hailing from New York City, The Sixties Show features former band members of The Who and John Fogarty’s Creedence Clearwater Revival. For those who have seen The Sixties Show before, this time around will include new song selections, multi-media, and narration to keep things fresh.

This popular theater show is a cross generational crowd pleaser and has been selling out virtually every theater and performing arts center that they play. The band is widely celebrated and known for re-creating spot on, note-for-note re-creations of the hits, B-sides and deep album cuts from the greatest songs of the 1960’s.

In addition to the concert experience, this high energy show is a large scale and ambitious multi-media, stage production that is powerfully dramatized by a combination of time travel special effects, narration, 1960s archival audio, and newsreel footage. The Sixties Show is a trip back in time that reminds the audience how uniquely inspirational, entertaining, and historically significant the music and events of the 1960’s were and continues to be.

All of the music is performed live, with no samples, backing tracks or prerecorded music of any kind. The band also uses a state-of-the-art sound system but only plays authentic 1960s period vintage and re-issue vintage gear and instrumentation just like original artists and original recordings. This combined with genuine 1960’s mod costumes that the band wears only add to the meticulous detail and authenticity of this popular and powerful theater show.

The members of The Sixties Show were hand-picked to perform and record with Sir Paul McCartney, The Beach Boys, Brian Wilson, The Bee Gees, Mick Jagger, John Fogerty, Bruce Springsteen, Walter Becker and Donald Fagen of Steely Dan.

Tickets are $49 to $75 at thesuffolk.org. The Suffolk is at 118 East Main Street in Riverhead.
