Ben Rollo Presents
The Music of Tom Petty & The Heartbreakers
For Sunday afternoon’s show, Ben has put together an all-star band to reflect the music for which Tom Petty & The Heartbreakers are known.
Ben and his band will perform hits from the late great Petty’s legendary 40 year career. They’ll showcase Petty’s timeless songwriting and The Heartbreakers range in rock, blues and folk music.
Petty’s influence can no doubt be heard in Ben’s singing and songwriting. Ben’s original songs have been featured on CBC radio and over 20 radio stations across Canada.
