About this Event

Through accomplished musicianship and with an enthusiastic delivery, Don’t Back Down energizes audiences up and down the east cost with a diverse mix of songs from Tom Petty & the Heartbreakers’ extensive 41-year, 13-album repertoire, including tracks from Tom Petty’s three solo albums, Mud Crutch and The Traveling Wilburys.

Don’t Back Down was formed in 2017 by a handful of seasoned Baltimore-based musicians who share a mutual love and respect for not only one of the most prolific songwriters of our time but also for the band that produced one of the greatest American rock catalogues. Don’t Back Down band members include: Mark O’Dell on guitar and lead vocals; Chris Huntington on lead guitar; Jeremy Robinson on bass and vocals; Tom Sabia on drums; and Evan Cooper on keyboards and vocals.
