REMSEN, NY — The Remsen Arts Center presents Monk Rowe & The Roots of Rock and Roll in Concert on Friday, October 11, 2019 at 7:30pm at 9627 Main Street, Remsen, NY. General Admission $10, Members $8, Students $5.
From Carl Perkins to Chuck Berry; from “In the Mood” to “Great Balls of Fire,” the Roots of Rock & Roll covers the early influences and hit-making artists who redefined popular music. Spanning the era from World War II to the early sixties, this group captures the pre Rock & Roll sounds of Swing, Rhythm & Blues, Country and Gospel; and the signature early Rock & Roll chart toppers. The band journeys through 25 years of American popular music, recreating the styles which mixed and emerged as Rock & Roll. Monk Rowe on saxophone and piano, John Hutson on guitar and vocals and Tom McGrath on drums are featured in the group, sure to “Shake, Rattle & Roll.” Put on your Dancin’ Shoes!
