December Music at The Suffolk

It may be getting cold outside, but Suffolk Theater in Riverhead is warming things up in the coming weeks with plenty of hot music. Here’s what’s coming up:

Nightrain: The Guns N’ Roses Tribute – Friday, December 16, 8 p.m.

Nightrain is here with the ultimate Guns N’ Roses tribute. With scary accurate vocals, killer showmanship and spot-on classic riffs, audience members will be transported back to the good ol’ days of rock ’n’ roll.

The accurate vocals and hypnotic swaying of Axl both capture the audience’s attention from the first beat down to the last note. Slash’s classic riffs and perfect showmanship (and top hat) will make everyone do a double take. However, Axl and Slash are only part of the show. The tight rhythm of Izzy, Duff and Steven are the glue that keeps this true concert tribute together. Izzy’s laid back style, a 6’ blonde Duff, the energy of Steven “popcorn” Adler complete this visually and musically accurate line-up. This band’s vibrant stage presence and accuracy to everything about Guns N’ Roses leaves the entire crowd pleased.

The band’s tribute to Guns N’ Roses has been taking the U.S. by storm for years. Performances have ranged from The House Of Blues, MTV’s Famous Club LaVela, The FC Dallas Stadium, to this year’s Carolina Rebellion, sharing the bill with Alice In Chains, Soundgarden and Buckcherry to name a few.

Tickets are $35 to $45. Doors open 7 p.m.

Sinatra Birthday Celebration – Saturday, December 17, at 8 p.m.

Celebrate Frank Sinatra’s 107th birthday with the New Millennium Jazz Band. Enjoy a night of dancing, drinks, food, and most importantly, the timeless music of the man himself.

This will be an elegant night of dancing, wine, appetizers, desserts and the music of Frank Sinatra performed to perfection by the 19-piece New Millennium Big Band orchestra, and the dance floor will be open. Hear all of the hits amidst the timeless décor of the 1933 Historic Suffolk Theater

Tickets are $45 to $55. Doors open 7 p.m.

“Miracle on 52nd Street” – Friday, December 23, at 8 p.m.

The band that recorded Billy Joel’s classic albums The Lords of 52nd Street returns ... but this time with some Christmas spirit. Come hear favorites from albums they recorded with Joel like “The Stranger,” “52nd Street,” “Glass Houses,” “Turnstiles” and so much more along with some holiday classics thrown in. Joel’s band included Richie Cannata, Liberty DeVitto, and Russell Javors who are The Lords of 52nd Street. They perform all of the favorite Billy Joel songs exactly as they sounded on the albums, because they all played in the band that recorded and toured them.

Tickets are $49 to $59. Doors open 7 p.m.
