Their 2011 Basie show was so much fun, we had to ask them back! From bombastic epics to ethereal folk tunes, Get The Led Out captures the essence of Led Zeppelin’s recorded catalogue with a two-hour show spanning the mythic career of the legendary British band. Not an impersonator act, GTLO approach the music like a classical performance. Six accomplished musicians deliver Zeppelin’s studio recordings with all the bells and whistles, re-creating the overdubs and studio tracks that Zeppelin themselves never performed live. From the rock anthems to the sit-down acoustic songs, GTLO’s attention to detail makes their show unique in the Zeppelin world. The Philadelphia Inquirer said, “…older fans could be heard bragging that they saw Zeppelin back in the day and that Get The Led Out is better. That might seem hard to believe until you witness the might and versatility of the players…” Click here for complete details on Pazzo dinner packages! |

Now in its 15th year, Bobfest is a celebration of the music of one of the greatest singer/songwriter/poets this country has yet produced. Featuring singer and guitar player Pat Guadagno and his band Tired Horses, plus special guests, The Two River Times calls Bobfest, "One of Red Bank’s better musical moments and hipper traditions.” The NY Times calls Pat, “A well travelled Troubadour with a remarkable repertoire,” and his vast repertoire of Dylan songs (last year 70 songs were performed for Dylan’s 70th birthday) will bring the Basie stage alive. Hosted by NJ 101.5 FM’s Big Joe Henry, proceeds benefit the Rock & Roll Music Fund and the Anthony X. Guadagno Scholarship Fund at the Berklee College of Music, honoring the memory of bassist Tony Guadagno. |

One of rock and roll’s most prominent figures, Steve Winwood first exploded onto the music scene in 1963 at age 15 as the vocalist on the Spencer Davis Group’s “Gimme Some Lovin” and “I’m a Man.” He then formed the group Traffic, who released now-classic music like “Low Spark of High Heeled Boys,” “Dear Mr. Fantasy” and “John Barleycorn Must Die.” He was in Blind Faith, one of the first “supergroups,” with Eric Clapton, Ginger Baker and Rich Grech, producing hit singles like “Can’t Find My Way Home” and “Presence of the Lord.” Winwood then launched a solo career that has produced hit singles like “Roll With It,” “Higher Love,” “Valerie,” and “Back In The High Life.” The recipient of eight Gold and three Platinum Records, plus four Grammy Awards, his most recent hit was 2008’s “Dirty City,” a duet with Eric Clapton.
