Guitars 4 Vets & Camp Hometown Heroes Benefit Concert Featuring:
The Verve Pipe
Sponsored by West Bend Mutual Insurance and West Bend Power Hockey
With a reputation for spectacular live performances, the multi-platinum alternative rock band The Verve Pipe are recognized worldwide for their radio hits Photograph, Hero, Happiness Is, Never Let You Down and the #1 smash single The Freshmen.
In addition to their success on radio, TV and film, sold-out concert dates throughout the U.S., Canada, Europe and Australia, features in Rolling Stone, Interview Magazine and many more, and videos on MTV and VH1, the band has made numerous television appearances, including ‘The Tonight Show With Jay Leno’ and ‘Late Night With David Letterman.’
After an extended break from recording, The Verve Pipe released their first rock album in over 13 years with Overboard, a collection of ten new songs including the haunting title track. This long incubating project brought renewed energy and focus to the band as they soon followed with Parachute and their first-ever live album, Villains – Live & Acoustic featuring an acoustic re-imaging of their platinum debut album Villains.
Their latest, the critically acclaimed Threads, maintains their commitment to forward-thinking rock and roll as the band continues to reinvent itself with each new release. The Verve Pipe continue to tour, performing shows throughout the U.S., including special appearances at Lollapalooza, Austin City Limits Festival, Lincoln Center, Hangout Music Festival, SummerStage in Central Park, and many more.
About Guitar 4 Vets:
