ELECTRIC AVENUE: THE 80'S MTV EXPERIENCE
SPOTLIGHT SERIES
8 p.m. Thursday, February 12 | Main Stage
We don't get to repeat even one minute of our time here, but what if you could experience all of the youthful energy and sonic celebration that was 1980s New Wave & Radio Pop? Every sound. Every nuance. Every feeling. That's Electric Avenue.
What started out as a one-off party gig has turned into just over a decade-long run, totaling more than 1,100 concerts across the US and abroad.
An Electric Avenue show is a high energy space that reminds people of a time when they came home from school, put a record on, and listened with open ears and an open heart; conjuring first dates, first cars, prom nights, weekend movies, meeting friends at the mall, while finding a sense of fashion and an identity all their own. At an EA show, 80's music is as alive and well today as it has ever been.
If authenticity is your thing, Electric Avenue meticulously and painstakingly recreates every nuance and flavor of your favorite 80's songs. Delving into their personal stash of vintage synthesizers and rare signal processors, and Electric Avenue show is a true labor of love.
As artists, the musicians in Electric Avenue have had a hand in the sale of over 15 million albums worldwide. They choose to perform these songs because they love them as much as you do.
Every sound. Every nuance. Every time. That's Electric Avenue.
