Ohio State Marion’s Five Nights on Campus performance & cultural arts series welcomes A Band Called Honalee to the Morrill Hall Auditorium stage, Thursday, May 14th, at 7:30 p.m.
Musically accomplished, interactive and energetic, A Band Called Honalee draws inspiration from Peter, Paul and Mary, The Mamas & Papas, Simon & Garfunkel, The Beatles, Bob Dylan, The Byrds and other legends of 1960s folk-rock era. By reinvigorating their iconic songs with fresh harmonies, A Band Called Honalee brings this vital American music back to life once more.
Following in the footsteps of Peter, Paul and Mary, A Band Called Honalee got its start in the heart of New Year City’s East Village in 2009. Since then, they have pursued an active touring schedule around the country. Their self-titled debut CD will be released in the spring of 2015. A Band Called Honalee believes the melodies and messages of the 1960’s folk and folk-rock era are just as relevant today as they were when they were first sung, perhaps even more so. Their mission is to share this uniquely American music with new audiences, while rekindling the passion of long-time fans. Above all, they celebrate the undeniable ability of these songs to inspire people and bring them together once again.
All performances begin at 7:30 p.m. in Morrill Hall Auditorium. Doors open at 7 p.m. All tickets are general seating. For ticket information call 740-725-6253 or 740-725-6340. Tickets are available in advance or at the door, the night of the event. Ticket prices are $10 general admission, $9 seniors, $8 Marion campus faculty & staff, $4 for all students.
