Whether you’re a die-hard fan or new to their music, this performance promises to stir your soul, get your toes tapping, and have you humming along to the songs that defined a generation.
Maine-based singer/songwriter Tom DiMenna has been captivating audiences with his rich voice, masterful guitar playing, and knack for storytelling. His debut album, You Know Me, My Devil Says, released in 2020, was followed by a sold-out tour of Cat Stevens’ classics in 2021. Expanding his repertoire, DiMenna now includes the works of Gordon Lightfoot and Harry Chapin in a broader celebration of 1970s story songs. Tom recreates the magic of these unforgettable tracks, making them resonate as deeply today as they did decades ago. From the gentle wisdom of Cat Stevens to the poetic narratives of Gordon Lightfoot and the poignant tales of Harry Chapin, this show is a must-see for lovers of meaningful music. Join us for this one-of-a-kind tribute that will transport you back to the heart and soul of the ’70s. The legend lives on!
