LIVE! From VB announces 2025 series

arts & entertainment

Welcome music fans, to the 12^th year of LIVE! From Vero Beach, a production of MusicWorks! You can expect to enjoy some of the best musicians we could find from around the USA as well as from Sweden and Canada… traveling here to present the diverse classic folk and rock music that has experienced popularity through the decades … by those that have a perfect blend of musical skills and showmanship that crosses all generations and musical tastes!

We have taken some steps for this next season of shows to make some minor changes to our line-up while still retaining some of the best music at the most affordable prices. We have also added some more modern touches to the bands we have selected, to both retain the interest for our loyal customers, while inviting new interested music fans to our customer base. In doing so, we want you to have the opportunity to see your favorite concerts without breaking the bank!

As more and more classic artists and bands retire, while those that are still touring continue to charge more money pushing the venues into increasing ticket costs, we have been watching the trend throughout the country leaning more and more towards the presentation of tribute bands. Tribute bands have become an important part of modern culture and draw in many dedicated fans who still want to hear the great music by their favorite artists who can no longer play it themselves or they have become overpriced in the marketplace. Dollar for dollar, the “top-tier” tribute bands tend to be a better experience than the actual artist.

We listen to our patrons who come to our LIVE! From Vero Beach concerts and over and over again we hear that the music and musicians are top-notch! And that is our goal, whether they are tribute bands or the “real” people, bottom line, it’s all about great music. This year is no exception! Our experience in music allows us to know what makes audiences happy and excited. That’s what it’s all about for us…enjoying great music with our friends and neighbors!
