The Waldo is ready to rock the Midcoast with The Rebels- A Tom Petty Tribute on Saturday, Aug. 10 at 8 p.m.

The Rebels, America’s premiere Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers tribute band, is made up of five seasoned musicians from Massachusetts with decades of experience between them. “Tom
Petty has been a major influence on my singing, guitar-playing, songwriting- all of it.” says lead singer Mike Golarz. “He was just such a talented musician that wrote so many great songs we love to play as a band- then we get to share that same energy with a crowd.”

The Rebels don’t rely on impersonations but rather on performing the songs and the authentic sounds of the legendary music of Tom Petty. Their energetic performances are played with the
intensity and spirit in which they were intended. To the audiences' delight, their song selection spans the entire Tom Petty catalog. No gimmicks here, just rock and roll like it's meant to be.

Online tickets are available for $25 in advance, $30 the day of the event. Doors open at 7 p.m., show at 8. Concessions include beer and wine. To purchase tickets and for more information about The Waldo, parking and other upcoming events, please visit: thewaldotheatre.org.
