The White Album performed by The Fab Faux

Saturday April 13, 2012

Following their back-to-back successes in 2011 and 2012, The Fab Faux will return to the Michigan Theater! This time they will perform the Beatles’ self-titled masterpiece, also known as The White Album, in its entirety. The 30-song concert will include the rockers (“Back in the USSR,” “Helter Skelter”), the ballads (“While My Guitar Gently Weeps,” “Julia”) and everything in between (“Rocky Raccoon,” Birthday”). To achieve all the dazzling effects included on the… Show more album, the concert will feature the Hogshead Horns and the Creme Tangerine Strings.

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 (with emphasis on the later works never performed live by the Beatles). Far beyond a cover band, they play the music of The Beatles so impeccably that one must experience it to believe it. Imagine hearing complex material like “Strawberry Fields Forever” or “I Am the Walrus” performed in complete part-perfect renditions; or such harmony-driven songs as “Because”, “Nowhere Man”, and “Paperback Writer”, reproduced not only note-for-note, but with extra vocalists to achieve a double-tracked effect.

The group includes outstanding New York studio musicians – and lifelong Beatles fans - Will Lee (bassist in David Letterman’s band), Jimmy Vivino (guitarist and music director of Conan O’Brien’s band), drummer/producer Rich Pagano, guitarist Frank Agnello and ace keyboardist Jack Petruzzelli.

Reserved seats are $29.50 – $65. Limited Gold Circle and VIP seating also available. VIP Tickets also include a post-concert Meet & Greet with the band.
