Louisville-based band, Dark Side of the Wall will be performing at the Brown Theatre, 315 W. Broadway, this Saturday, February 25th, at 8:00 pm. Well known for their keen resemblance to Pink Floyd, Dark Side of the Wall will be recreating three hours of psychedelic "Art Rock" from Pink Floyd's classic line-up era (1967-1979) and Waters-led era (1981-1984). On February 3rd you may have heard Dark Side of the Wall perform on WFPK's "Live Lunch" concert series. This Saturday they will be creating a full multi-media event with a giant film screen, light show, costumes, and grand staging.
The band members of Pink Floyd from 1967-1983, the time period Dark Side of the Wall will be covering, included Syd Barrett (65'-68'), Roger Waters (65'-85'), Nick Mason (65'-96'), Richard Wright (65'-79' and 87'-96'), and David Gilmour (67'-96'). The musicians of Dark Side of the Wall are Allen Needham (electric, acoustic lead guitar, and lap steel), Steve Katsikas (keyboards and vocals), Brian Knopf (lead vocals and rhythm guitars), Mark Whobrey (drums and vocals), Antony Szaraz (bass guitar and lead vocals), Richard Malone (saxophone), Caroline Petrik (vocals), Jennifer Lauletta (vocals), and Sarah Smith (vocals).
