Jamie and Steve opening for Bob Lind

It's only logical that pop music masterminds Jamie Hoover and Steve Stoeckel (of Spongetones infamy) should be special guest openers for singer songwriter Bob Lind tonight at the Sylvia Theater in York. Well-known for their spectacular Beatles/British Invastion/70s rock artisty and original music, Hoover and Stoeckel are clever as a duo in their recent release "English Afterthoughts." Their voices combine in a transcendent blend, lyrics are witty and evocative; their expertise is stunning -- all this and more "looms large in their legend."

Interestingly, we received a rave-up promo for Lind from Hoover, who related his elation to be on the same bill as Lind, pointing to Lind's mega hit "Elusive Butterfly" from the late 60s as well as material covered by major artists including Cher and Eric Clapton. Lind has written top hits for Aretha Franklin, Dolly Parton, Richie Havens, Glen Campbell, The Four Tops, Hugh Masekela, Marianne Faithful and Hoyt Axton.

Sylvia Theater is at 27 N. Congress St., downtown York. Call 684-5590 for details or check sylviatheater.com. Get more musical information at boblind.com and jamieandsteve.com.
