(LAKEWOOD, NJ) -- James D'Amico presents Yellow Brick Road: A Tribute to Elton John on Saturday March 26, 2022 at The Strand Center for the Arts. There is no other performer who looks and sounds so much like Elton John, nor any tribute act that provides the experience of being at an actual Elton John concert, the way Gerald Brann and Yellow Brick Road does.
Brann not only bears an uncanny resemblance to the international superstar, complete with his mannerisms and gap-toothed smile, but he meticulously re-creates Elton John’s vocals and playing to the letter. To truly capture the essence of the piano man, Brann dresses in custom-tailored replica costumes and Elton’s trademark sunglasses.
Along with Brann, the band includes Rich D'Aigle, Mike Tobias, Mark Kavanaugh, and Kevin Ostrowski. Some of the Elton John hits you might hear include "Bennie and the Jets", "Candle In The Wind", "Crocodile Rock", "Daniel", "Don't Let the Sun Go Down on Me", "Honky Cat", "I Guess That's Why They Call It the Blues", "I'm Still Standing", "Levon", "Rocket Man", "Saturday Night's Alright For Fighting", "Someone Saved My Life Tonight", "Take Me to the Pilot", "The Bitch Is Back", "Tiny Dancer", "Your Song", and the song the band takes its name from: "Good-bye Yellow Brick Road".
Doors open at 6:30pm, tickets range from $30-42 and are available for purchase online.
