SUMMARY:The Heart of Rock and Roll: Huey Lewis Tribute Band
DESCRIPTION:The Heart of Rock & Roll is the only authentic Huey Lewis & The News tribute and HLN’s own keyboardist Sean Hopper called it “a surreal experience” after seeing them live. Frontman Roger Langdon channels Huey Lewis’ look\, voice\, and swagger with uncanny accuracy\, leading a powerhouse band through massive 80s hits like “The Power of Love\,” “Hip to Be Square\,” and “I Want a New Drug” with dynamic video backdrops and pure 80s energy. If you lived through the decade\, this one takes you straight back. And if you didn’t\, welcome to the best party of your life!
