History of Rock n Roll

The History of Rock n Roll brings the decades of Rock n Roll to life! Complete with costumes, video, and of course the music that defines each decade. It's more than a concert - it's more than a show - it's an experience! Bandleader John Pinna created History of Rock n Roll to pay homage to the music he loved ? starting with the 50's. Both of my parents grew up in the 50's recalls John we always had 50's music playing in my house. I can remember quite vividly the sounds of Elvis Presley echoing throughout my childhood. Combining the look of each decade is just as important to this experience as the music. It's not enough to simply play the songs. Music is the soundtrack to people's lives so what better way to represent each decade than to wear the fashions of each decade that people remember so fondly. It's also a lot of fun!
