Patti Smith and Her Band

See Patti Smith and Her Band live at the State Theatre for one-night only! Patti Smith and Her Band will perform songs from their new album, Banga, as well as some of Smith’s greatest hits. Singer-songwriter Smith first broke into the NYC punk rock scene in 1975—alongside acts like Blondie and The Ramones—with the release of her debut album, Horses. Smith’s hits include “Because the Night,” “Gloria,” “Free Money,” and “People Have the Power.” 

Smith’s highly-anticipated album, Banga, marks Smith’s first collection of original material since 2004, when she made her Columbia Records debut with the critically-acclaimed Trampin’. Banga was recorded at Electric Lady Studios in New York City and produced by Patti Smith and Her Band: Tony Shanahan, Jay Dee Daugherty, and her long-time collaborator Lenny Kaye. Featured guests include Tom Verlaine, Jack Petruzzelli, Smith’s son Jackson, and daughter Jesse Paris.
