J. Geils Band Takes on Portland for Summer Concert

Alright Rockers, get ready! It's going to be one heck of a summer for concerts in Maine!

American Rock Group, the J. Geils Band will be performing LIVE at the Maine State Pier in Portland, ME on Thursday, September 3rd as part of the Machias Savings Bank Concert Series!

The J. Geils Band was one of the most popular touring rock & roll bands in America during the '70s. Where their contemporaries were influenced by the heavy boogie of British blues-rock and the ear-splitting sonic adventures of psychedelia, The J. Geils Band was a bar band pure and simple, churning out greasy covers of obscure R&B, doo wop, and soul tunes, cutting them with a healthy dose of Stonesy swagger. While their muscular sound and the hyper jive of frontman Peter Wolf packed arenas across America, it only rarely earned them hit singles.

Tickets go on sale to the General Public on Friday, May 29th at 10 a.m. and range in price from $32.75 to 85.75.
