Description
 

Tusk the ultimate Fleetwood Mac tribute band to perform a benefit concert for Barnstable High School Music Department.

The Friends of Barnstable High School Music are hosting a benefit concert at the Barnstable High School Performing Arts Center to raise much needed funds to support music education in their school. This event is titled “Keep Music Education Alive.”

The “Help Keep Music Education Alive” concert series is the 3rd annual benefit concert for the BHS music program. This year’s concert will feature Tusk the Ultimate Fleetwood Mac Tribute. Last year’s annual “Help Keep Music Education Alive” concert raised over $14,000.00 with the Beatlemania Stage Show concert. Promoter Paul Lococo said “We anticipate exceeding last year’s results and hope to reach a new bench mark for continuing the music program at Barnstable High School.”

Tusk, the Ultimate Fleetwood Mac Tribute, covers all the great hits of Fleetwood Mac, which has featured the talents of Mick Fleetwood, Christine and John McVie, Lindsey Buckingham, Stevie Nicks and others over the years. The Fleetwood Mac story is an episodic saga that spans more than 30 years. It is the saga of a British blues band formed in 1967 that became a California-based pop group in the mid-Seventies. In between came a period where Fleetwood Mac shuffled personnel and experimented with styles, all the while releasing solid albums with chart topping hits such as Landslide, Rhiannon, Go Your Own Way, Don’t Stop, Dreams, Say You Love Me, Hold Me and many others. The five seasoned, well-respected musicians comprising TUSK have been making music together in various combinations and styles, in original outfits and in cover bands, for over twenty-five years. It seemed only fitting that they should come together to form the Ultimate Fleetwood Mac Tribute, and pay homage to a group that dominated the charts during the band members’ formative years.

The concert will be held Friday January 24, 2014 at 7:30 PM. The Barnstable High School Band will be performing live with the Tusk musicians during the concert on some songs.

The Friends of BHS Music treasurer Nicola Stacy said “This event is both educational and a fun way for the Barnstable High School music program to raise money and will be a great experience for the students to perform with a professional group of musicians. Last year’s event was a huge success.”

 The proceeds will be used to support the Barnstable High School Band that enrolls students in the marching band, wind ensemble and  jazz classes. The Barnstable High School Band has over 150 students  enrolled in the school music program.

  Tickets for the show are available on line at www.purplepass.com and at Shaw’s Markets in Hyannis  or by calling  800-316-8559.
