Suffolk Theater presents The Brit Pack performing on Friday, February 23, at 8 p.m. Founded by two Brits in New York, The Brit Pack has established a reputation as the most authentic British Invasion band in the United States, covering the full timeline of the U.K.’s best music.

The Brit Pack delivers a show full of music from major names across the pond that’s at the same time familiar enough to make audiences feel right at home and high-energy enough to get them on their feet. From the iconic sounds of the Beatles, The Rolling Stones, David Bowie, Radiohead, The Police and The Who, to the unforgettable anthems of Queen, Led Zeppelin, and Pink Floyd — The Brit Pack brings the golden age of British Invasion to life, filling the air with nostalgia and pure rock ’n’ roll magic.

The band features Matt Nakoa from the U.S. on vocals, guitar and keys; Mark Johnson from the U.K. on guitar and vocals; Bryan Percivall from the U.S. on bass and vocals; and Will Haywood Smith from the U.K. on drums and vocals.

Tickets are $45 to $59 at thesuffolk.org. Suffolk Theater is at 118 East Main Street in Riverhead.
