“With some of the most talented musicians in the northeast, The Mountain Jam Band will light up the night with an iconic Allman Brothers Southern rock live experience: signature guitar licks, soaring harmonies and improvisational magic,” Cooperstown Concerts promises. “Expect an evening of blues, country and southern soul woven together in the spirit of a rock ’n’ roll band known for their electrifying live performances.”

Then, on Saturday, February 7, the music continues as American Girl—A Tribute to Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers takes the stage.

“Featuring seasoned musicians from New York, American Girl captures the essence and infectious hook-laden melodies that Tom Petty and The Heartbreakers gave us,” the press release reads. “It will be a night of heartland rock with folk and blues influences, melodies you can’t stop humming, and lyrical stories full of grit, heart, and hope. With infectious energy and pitch-perfect musicianship, the American Girl concert will be electrifying, nostalgic, and perfect for singing and dancing the night away.”
