Playing the iconic album in its entirely, plus a selection of CLASSIC HITS
John Lodge, legendary bass player, songwriter and vocalist of The Moody Blues, and Rock and Roll Hall of Famer, is coming to Englewood, NJ! Following the critically acclaimed and sold out shows earlier this year, John is continuing in his celebration of ‘The Moody Blues’ music, and the iconic album ‘Days of Future Passed’, and is delighted to be bringing his show to bergenPAC.
The electrifying show, ‘Performs Days of Future Passed’ encompasses a first set of Moodies classics featuring fan favorites such as ‘Isn’t Life Strange’, ‘Legend of a Mind’, ‘I’m Just a Singer (in a Rock and Roll Band)’ and ‘Ride my See-Saw’. The second set sees John and his rocking band perform ‘Days of Future Passed’ in full symphonic splendor, and with incredible renditions of ‘Nights in White Satin’ and ‘Tuesday Afternoon’. The show also includes mesmerizing video to immerse you in the experience.
Come take a journey back in time with John and his band! Listen to John’s stories, the incredible vocal harmonies, the passionate musicianship, and the loving recreation of this groundbreaking album, as it warmly wraps around you, and creates Moodies magic that will stay with you for long after the music fades. Some of the Moodies most loved songs were composed and sung by John, such as ‘Isn’t Life Strange’, and ‘Ride My See-Saw’, and these are brought into the show with a new passion by John and his band.
‘Days of Future Passed’ was released 56 years ago and was arguably the start of progressive rock. These songs began the long-standing cross-over between rock and classical music, and the Moody Blues shows were always known for recreating this incredible sound, and for the wonderful atmosphere enjoyed by both those on stage, and in the audience. John has surrounded himself with a band that are equally passionate, who put simply, love performing together, and who appreciate and respect the legacy of the music. The Moodies may not perform any more, and the loss of Graeme, Ray and Mike is felt deeply, but this show honours John’s friends and the music.
The electrifying show will also be in support of John’s album ‘Days of Future Passed – My Sojourn’, available now on CD and all streaming services, with limited edition 180g coloured vinyl also available.
Joining John on stage is his ‘10,000 Light Years Band’, comprised of long term collaborator Alan Hewitt (Music Director and Keyboards) and Billy Ashbaugh (Drums) from the Moody Blues touring band, together with Duffy King (Guitars) and Jason Charboneau (Cello). Jon Davison of YES will also be joining him for his special renditions of ‘Nights in White Satin’ and ‘Tuesday Afternoon’, plus the magical voice of Graeme Edge.
‘If you love The Moody Blues music, then you really need to checkout John live. He and the band put on a great show!’
