Fairfield, CT (PRWEB) November 01, 2014
Halloween may have come and gone, but the Fairfield Theatre Company will continue dishing out treats this holiday weekend as they welcome back the best Beatles re-creationists out there, The Fab Faux, at 8 p.m. on Saturday, Nov. 1 at the Klein Auditorium.
Those who haven’t heard The Fab Faux’s meticulous full renditions of a Beatles album replicated are certainly in for a treat because The Fab Faux are truly a spectacle that must be seen, and an excellent concert experience for any budding music fan or veteran.
Considered without a doubt the most music-centered tribute band today, The Fab Faux all-star lineup includes Grammy Award-winning bass player Will Lee, who perhaps is best known as the bassist for over two decades on “The Late Show with David Letterman.” He has also lent his considerable talents to well over 1,000 pop, jazz and rock albums. Guitarist Jimmy Vivino serves as the Music Director on the TBS late night show “Conan” and has recorded and played live with such legends as Johnnie Johnson, Hubert Sumlin, Al Kooper and the late Levon Helm. Jack Petruzzelli, the Brooklyn-based multi-instrumentalist is considered one of the most sought after and respected musicians on the scene and has recorded and toured with everyone from Rufus Wainwright to Joan Osborne, music legends Patti Smith and Ian Hunter to budding underground sensations.
Rich Pagano, New York’s best sideman, is known for his expertise in producing, recording and playing drums for such artists as Patti Smith, Rosanne Cash, Robbie Robertson, Ray Davies, Willie Nile, gospel icon Marie Knight, Joan Osborne, Levon Helm, and Mott The Hoople legend Ian Hunter. Lastly, Frank Agnello has played with such artists as Marshall Crenshaw, Badfinger's Joey Molland, Phoebe Snow, Al Kooper, Mike Viola, Jill Sobule, Jackie DeShannon, Willie Nile, Richard Lloyd and Ivan Julian just to name a few.
Fans of the Beatles should get ready because The Fab Faux will present a set of classic, fan-favorite Beatles tunes including such classics as “Lucy In the Sky with Diamonds,” “Being for the Benefit of Mr. Kite,” “Lovely Rita” and of course, “A Day in the Life” as they perform “Sgt. Pepper’s Lonely Hearts Club” in its entirety.
The Fab Faux doesn’t just stand there and dress to play the part, but they put on a show that is certainly worthy of any true Beatlemaniac. They “will invigorate the artistry of even the Beatles' most intricate studio masterpieces with top chops and Beatlemaniac glee,” says Rolling Stone’s senior editor David Fricke.
