DANIA BEACH, Fla. /Florida Newswire/ — Tribute band Jaded Aerosmith will light up the stage on Saturday, May 19 followed by a captivating performance by R&B band Deep Fried Funk on Sunday, May 20 at the 6th Annual Dania Beach Arts and Seafood Celebration. The 2018 lineup features an electrifying cast of performers and a diverse range of acts, including Classic Rock Therapy, Whipping Post and Latin group Catabella to name a few.
Join the FREE celebration on Saturday and Sunday, May 19 and 20, 2018 from 11 a.m. to 8 p.m. on Saturday and 11 a.m. to 6 p.m. on Sunday at Frost Park, located at 300 NE 2nd Street in Dania Beach. This event is the perfect getaway for music aficionados who prefer to “experience” live music and interact with artists amidst beautiful South Florida weather.
Jaded Aerosmith began one day in early February 2015 in Ft. Lauderdale, Florida as a bright idea by Guitarist Pete Lauria (Brad Whitford) after noticing that his main street band singer and fellow transplanted Bostonian Tommy Braga really loved imitating Steven Tyler during their shows.
With the lineup set, the band quickly devised a set list that encompassed enough of the 45-year history of AEROSMITH to be representative of the actual experience of seeing the band live on any given night. Jaded Aerosmith hits the stage at 6:30 p.m. on Saturday.
“We have, through the study of the music being reproduced, discovered a genuine love for this first truly American Rock and Blues answer to The British Invasion’s Rolling Stones and Led Zeppelin, and feel that shines through in each of our performances. Most importantly, we are about having a good time with good music and good friends,” states Braga.
One of the most sought after Drummers of this Generation deftly playing any genre, David “Jody” Hill is the C.E.O. and founder of his band Deep Fried Funk. Jody has earned himself 3 Grammy nominations with Joss Stone for the album “Mind, Body & Soul” and has had numerous television appearances. Jody and the Band were also given the opportunity of playing for the First Lady of the United States, Michelle Obama, and landed performances with Malcolm-Jamal Warner, Jaguar Wright (known for Jay Z’s hit song “A Song Cry”), Kindred Family Soul, Dwele, Peter Harder, Gloria Gaynor, RL, Bobby Valentino, Lloyd, Roscoe Dash, Flo-Rida, Rick Ross, Tank, Git Fresh, Trick Daddy, Big Brooklyn Red, D.Woods, Anthony David, Q. Parker and Eric Roberson.
Hill possesses infinite talent and maintains his status in the industry as a force to be reckoned with. Attendees won’t want to miss jamming out to his soulful rhythms on Sunday evening beginning at 5 p.m.
“Each year we continue to push ourselves to bring attendees the very best festival experience. With some new changes and features in store for this year’s festival, we are ready and excited to treat our fans to an incredible weekend of live performances,” states Rickelle Williams, Executive Director of the Dania Beach Community Redevelopment Agency.
