Pure Petty is Coming to Long Beach Island in July

originally published: 06/23/2024

(LONG BEACH ISLAND,NJ) -- Gloucester County-based Pure Petty will perform two outdoor concerts in LBI this July. They will be at Bay Breeze Park in Barnegat Light on July 8th (6:00pm to 9:00pm) and Boat Ramp in Ship Bottom on July 11th (6:00pm to 8:30pm). Admission to both concerts is free. 

The six-member band has garnered a large and loyal following thanks to their recreations of such Tom Petty/Heartbreakers favorites as “American Girl,” “The Waiting,” Runnin’ Down A Dream” and “Don’t Do Me Like That,” as well as deeper cuts from Petty’s extensive catalog of songs.

Pure Petty was formed in 2019 by life long, accomplished musicians hailing from the Philadelphia area. Jimmy Mannix (Tom Petty) performed for years in numerous bands and would consistently be reminded of his uncanny vocal and physical resemblance to Petty. Eventually this sparked a discussion in one of his more recent bands about starting a Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers tribute band.

Pure Petty's mission has been to recreate the music of Tom Petty & The Heartbreakers with precision, intense attention to detail and unswerving respect for a revered musical legacy. Everyone's parts are intensely studied, down to the inflections in the way each word of every lyric is sung. Close your eyes and you won't know the difference. Open them and you still might be fooled!

Pure Petty pays tribute to one of the greatest American singer-songwriters of all time by delivering an astounding and memorable salute to the musical legacy of Tom Petty via a second-to-none, high-energy performance that leaves wildly enthusiastic, multi-generational crowds craving more!
