The critically acclaimed Jason Bonham’s Led Zeppelin Experience – an unforgettable night of rock n’ roll featuring the blues-rock of Led Zeppelin – will return this spring for a month-long U.S. concert tour arriving at the NYCB Theatre at Westbury on Wednesday, May 13 and Thursday, May 14.
Described as “a band that recreates Led Zeppelin’s music to such a degree that one can’t help but close their eyes and simply listen,” Jason Bonham’s Led Zeppelin Experience celebrates the life and music of his father, the legendary Led Zeppelin drummer John Bonham.
The new show will encompass the band’s albums including their 1969 debut Led Zeppelin and Led Zeppelin II (also released in 1969) and many more Led Zeppelin favorites from the canon including Led Zeppelin IV and Physical Graffiti as well as hits and deep cuts.
At Westbury, where there are back-to-back nights, the show set lists will be completely different each night.
The last 18 months of Bonham’s life have been a whirlwind. He won a Grammy Award (“Best Rock Album,” Led Zeppelin, Celebration Day), performed for President Obama – when Led Zeppelin received the Kennedy Center Honors- worked with Phil Collins, joined The Circle with Sammy Hagar and Michael Anthony and recorded an album with California Breed alongside Glenn Hughes.
Bonham also recorded an entire drum library for the legendary film composer and music producer Hans Zimmer and became part of a who’s who of drumming drum orchestra for Hans Zimmer while recording the soundtrack to his film “Man of Steel.”
“It’s been about a year since we last went out with the band and I’m excited to bring the Led Zeppelin Experience back out on the road with a new energy and a diverse set list,” Bonham said. “This time around we are doing more album work and including a lot of songs that Led Zeppelin never played live before. We have a few cities where we’ll do two consecutive nights. The second night will be different from the first night; therefore, if you come both nights, you won’t be disappointed.”
The band includes Bonham on drums, Tony Catania on guitar, Alex Howland on keyboards/ guitars, Dorian Heartsong on bass and James Dylan on vocals.
