Panorama: A Tribute to The Cars
The Cars were the prototypical American new wave band. Known for their refreshing and clever songwriting in an era of bombastic art rock and mindless disco, The Cars were a unique blend of analog synthesizers, muted power chords, catchy choruses and muscular guitar heroics.
Scoring a string of hit singles between 1978 and 1987, The Cars sold over 24 million albums around the globe and had 13 singles that reached the Top 40.
After regularly selling out their staple tribute show of The Cars' debut album, Milwaukee music stalwarts Mike Benign, Don Moore, Jack Rodee, Jack Rice and Nick Verban now fully recreate one of the best live performances of The Cars you'll find anywhere, each song given the energy and attitude they deserve.
From the massive hits that poured out of teenagers' radios such as "Just What I Needed", "You Might Think" and "Shake It Up" to the album track gems like "Night Spots", "Gimme Some Slack" and "I'm in Touch with Your World", Panorama brings every album to the stage.
Songs that are so timeless they are still used in film, television and advertising more than 40 years after their release.
