Beyond Purple with special guest Shovelhead!

Saturday, November 23, 2024 – 8:00 PM EST

Beyond Purple is an explosive rock band that delivers on every level. Playing venues up and down northern New England, lead singer Mike Gill’s stinging vocals and energetic stage presence bring every song to life.

Jimi Bell’s over the top guitar playing and incredible shredding are beyond comparison and have made him legendary in the music world.

Brian Camelleri’s solid bass playing and tight riffs round out this amazing band.

BJ Zampa’s drumming is off the charts and his double bass playing is in a league of its own.

Welcome Gary Fox Jr. on keyboards and backing vocals, a long standing member of legendary Led Zeppelin tribute “Physical Graffiti”. His talent is beyond amazing.

Beyond Purple plays the greatest hits of Deep Purple, Whitesnake, Rainbow and Dio all born out of the Deep Purple family tree. We are professional musicians with national act affiliations who deliver each and every show. This band is a must see!
