At the Parker Playhouse in Fort Lauderdale

THE FAB FAUX
THE FAB FAUX has been hailed by Rolling Stone as "the world's greatest Beatles Tribute Band." With a commitment to the accurate reproduction of The Beatles' repertoire, THE FAB FAUX treat the seminal music with unwavering respect and are known for their painstaking recreations of the songs. The first set will be HELP in its entirety, followed by a set of audience and band favorites. THE FAB FAUX features legendary bassist Will Lee from The David Letterman Show, Jimmy Vivino from Conan O'Brien Show along with Rich Pagano, Frank Agnello and Jack Petruzzelli.
Tickets start at $35
At Old School Square in Delray Beach
March 7 at 8 pm (Wednesday)
As a founding member of the legendary folk trio Peter, Paul and Marry, Peter Yarrow has entertained, challenged and inspired four generations of music lovers. A Peter Yarrow performance does more than assure a memorable evening of music, comraderies and "Puff's special magic" for every one of every age. The songs that he wrote and performed have changed and insured millions to keep on keepin' on, hold firm to principle, and not be deterred in the face of adversity. His performances create an environment in which a sense of reassuring commonality is shared by the entire audience.
Tickets: $77 / $57
March 14 at 8 pm (Wednesday)
Roger McGuinn
Roger McGuinn (Mr. Tambourine Man, Turn Turn Turn) not only lived history, he made history with his fearless sense of experimentation. As the leader of the influential 60s group, The Byrds, he was on the leading edge, combining the rock beat of the Beatles with the folk sensibilities of Bob Dylan, to create the genre known as "folk-rock." Roger's solo career began in 1973 and has yielded 10 albums, a Grammy nomination, and extensive touring and performing for enthralled audiences ever since. In addition to touring, Roger has been busier than ever spearheading his acclaimed Folk Den Project, playing select dates with country superstar Marty Stuart and The Fabulous Superlatives and opened The Montreal Folk Festival.
Tickets: $92 / $77 / $57
March 28 at 8 pm (Wednesday)
Celebrating decades of music and his recent album Haven't Got the Blues (Yet), Loudon Wainwright is, in the words of The New Yorker, "as good as he's ever been. Almost 40 years into his recording career, he has not only retained his sharpness of wit but also has learned to cut with greater skill." From an enfant terrible who was once compared to Bob Dylan, the folksinger-songwriter's music "varies from good-timey folk to spare folk-blues. If his voice has thinned a bit, he still conveys the jovial intimacy of a born storyteller whose public self-mockery exorcises demons," hails Stephen Holden in The New York Times.
Tickets: $57 / $47
At the Duncan Theatre in Lake Worth
March 29 at 8 pm (Thursday)
