For Immediate Release
Worcester, MA – Symply Fargone Productions presents the Jon Pousette-Dart Band with special guest Kerri Powers, Friday, September 5, 8PM at Mechanics Hall at 321 Main Street in Worcester.
The Pousette-Dart Band, led by Jon Pousette-Dart carved a place in the landscape of American music in the 1970s. They were a mainstay of album radio, a favorite on the college circuit, and became one of the busiest touring groups in the US working with such acts as The Byrds, Bonnie Raitt, Little Feat, The Eagles, James Taylor, The J. Geils Band, Eddie Money, Manfred Mann, Jonathan Edwards, Mahavishnu Orchestra, Emmylou Harris, Gary Wright, Robert Palmer, Randy Newman, Journey, Billy Joel, NRBQ, and many more including the now famous Frampton Comes Alive tour, and the progressive Yes Fragile tour – playing arenas from Coast to Coast.
The band’s hit records include The Pousette-Dart Band, Amnesia and Pousette-Dart Band 3. The song “Fall on Me” from the band’s second album Amnesia was featured in the eleventh episode of the second season of Lost.
While the original group dis-banded in the early ’80s, Jon kept performing with original drummer Eric Parker and continued writing and producing into the 90s, when he returned to Nashville to begin recording again on his own. He turned out four more solo albums and recently released “Anti-Gravity”, a cohesive selection of his best songs to date.
Jon’s continued writing and travels have kept him engaged in Nashville where the original band’s first albums were recorded with Norbert Putnam. He has continued performing nationally and writing steadily with many of the finest writers that embody the best of the American music scene.
Later this year Jon is releasing his latest “record” entitled “Talk.”
The concert continues Symply Fargone Productions’ commitment to bringing quality singer-songwriter entertainment to Worcester.
