Like A Hurricane will perform a tribute to the music of Neil Young at 7:30 p.m. next Saturday, March 11, in the Deane Center’s Coolidge Theatre at 104 Main Street in Wellsboro.

The four founding members of this band, based in Syracuse, New York, include lead vocalist Thom Hogan on electric and acoustic guitars, harmonica, and piano, Mike Vertino on bass guitar, Jeff Roney on drums and percussion and Pete “Pedro” Shank on electric and acoustic guitars and keyboards. Mike, Jeff and Pedro all sing harmony vocals.

Included in their performances are folk and rock songs; well-known favorites and a number of deep cuts audiences don’t ordinarily get to hear. Look for songs like “Cinnamon Girl”, “Down by the River”, “Like A Hurricane” and “Southern Man.”

“As a group, we are dedicated to giving our audience an authentic Neil Young live concert experience, from his solo work to his studio recordings with Crazy Horse, Buffalo Springfield and Crosby, Stills and Nash, from intimate acoustic songs with soulful lyrics to driving electric guitars,” said Hogan.

“It’s wonderful for his fans to have a chance to hear his songs performed live and a shared experience for the audience and for us because we all love Neil’s music,” Hogan said.

The concert is BYOB with audience members encouraged to bring their favorite snacks and beverages and sit at a table with family and friends.
