American popular music experienced a seismic shift in 1964. That year, British bands launched what became commonly known as an “invasion” of the American pop charts and culture. Led by The Beatles, other British bands and artists such as the Rolling Stones, and many more completely and dramatically affected the course of rock & roll in America. At no other time in the 20th century had American popular music been so jolted by foreign sounds and influences.
The evening will start with music from the Beatles, the Rolling Stones, the Kinks, and the Animals, and the evening will continue to weave through a storyline of two decades worth of music culminating with British Blues-Rock icons such as Cream, Led Zeppelin, the Jeff Beck Group, and many more. The music will be paired with storytelling and anecdotes about the bands, musicians, and songs we all know and love.
Comments from Concert Attendees
“The vocals, the guitars, the keyboards, the drums—all of jaw dropping excellence. This band could be dropped into any venue—6th Steet in Austin, Greenwich Village, Memphis, Chicago, St. Louis—and this would be the draw. The bar hosting them would be dealing with lines around the block.” Gary – Fargo, ND
“Great Show!!!!” Bob – Saint Paul, MN
“We LOVED you at TAK Music Venue. We’re looking forward to the next show.” Kris – Moorhead, MN
About the Featured Band
Nominated for the Independent Blues Music Award’s 2022 “Best Blues Rock Album”, Jennifer Lyn & The Groove Revival’s music features classic rock undertones, soulful vocals, the songwriting vibe of the 70s, wanderlust, and plenty of reverb-drenched guitar solos with dual guitar moments.
“Female blues guitarists have long been an important part of the Blues-Rock world. You only have to think of ladies like Ana Popovic, Bonnie Raitt or Joanne Shaw Taylor to understand what I mean. And now we can also add Jennifer Lyn & The Groove Revival to that list.” – Blues Magazine
“Jennifer Lyn has proven that she will be a force to be reckoned with in the Blues Rock world. She’s a gifted singer and guitarist who’s capable of digging deep from within as a songwriter.” – Blues Bytes Magazine
