Phil Barone and The Cruisers - Jim Morrison Tribute Concert

Phil Barone and The Cruisers are teaming up once again for a stellar collaboration and Jim Morrison Tribute Concert with a special Bruce Springsteen Tribute! This year's concert will give all proceeds to the local non-profit The Dyslexia Education Center. If you haven't been to one of our Jim Morrison Tribute Concerts then NOW is the time, baby!

The concert will be on Saturday, February 1st, 2025, at the historic Maumee Indoor Theatre (601 Conant Street, Maumee, Ohio). Doors to the event will open at 6 pm. Drink tickets will be available for purchase and use at the bar. The show will begin at 7 pm with the opening act, Mikey “Blue” Barone playing the harmonica, guitar, and vocals. Then Phil Barone and The Cruisers will take the stage at 8 pm with a special Bruce Springsteen Tribute followed by the Jim Morrison Tribute.

All proceeds from the concert will benefit the local non-profit The Dyslexia Education Training Center (formerly the 32° Masonic Learning Center for Children), which provides help for students from Northwest Ohio and Southeast Michigan. The center is located at Coy Elementary School in Oregon, Ohio (formerly Union School in Maumee), where students receive individual instruction to learn the skills necessary to overcome their condition. The success rate is close to 100%.

This unique tribute features several amazingly talented local musicians, including Phil Barone on lead vocals as Jim Morrison, Pat McDonagh on lead guitar, Mike Perzynski​ ​on​ ​bass, Nate Woodward on the keyboard, Evan Spurlock on drums, and an accomplished horn section led by John Grafing on the Trumpet, Al Ashby on the tenor sax, and Bob Huff on the trombone.
