Australia's rock legends Little River Band take the stage at the Paramount Theater
Little River Band Aussie rock legends appearing at the Paramount Hudson River Valley Theater Saturday, July 9th.

Through the years LRB has thrived as a highly respected and constantly in-demand outfit, going about their craft with a dedication to excellence and professionalism that few, if any, can match. The Little River Band of 2015 is stronger than ever and performs between 125-150 shows a year in the U.S., Canada as well as abroad. This is why the Paramount is very pleased to bring LRB to the downtown Peekskill.
The band is anchored by American bass player Wayne Nelson, who began his LRB career in 1980. The following year Wayne debuted as lead vocalist on the top ten hits "The Night Owls" and "Take It Easy On Me," and continues in that role today. Wayne has more years of service than anyone throughout the band’s illustrious history.
Greg Hind (guitars and vocals) has been an integral part of the bands current sound since 2000. Before joining LRB Greg played and sang with many well-known artists including Thelma Houston, Kylie Minogue, and Bachelor Girl.

He has produced CDs for Shane McAnally (Curb Records) and Eric Stromer (Jimi Noodles Records), as well as being co-producer on three Little River Band projects since joining the band in 2006...We Call It Christmas, Outback, and Standing Room Only (Sony Records, 2006). His touring credits include a 2-year stint with Steve Holy.

After studying music in college, Chris moved to Nashville and began his playing career, with his music garnering nominations for 4 Dove awards from the Gospel Music Assoc. He has toured and recorded with artists like Steven Curtis Chapman, Shenandoah, Brent Lamb, and Keith Longbotham. In 1992, he joined with partner Danny Myrick to form Western Flyer and later worked with artists such as Garth Brooks, The Oak Ridge Boys, Doug Stone, and Charlie Chase.
Ryan Ricks (drums and vocals) is one of those great Nashville musicians who checked out of the business for a few years to be a stay-at-home dad. He had spent many years touring with Loretta Lynn before deciding to get "off the bus". But a phone call from Rich Herring pulled him back to the road. Having played in bands with Rich before, their reconnection was instant and the band kicked into another gear. His vocal talents complete the picture for LRB, with all five band members singing.
The Paramount Hudson Valley Theater is the ideal venue to feature the tight harmonies, expert musicality, and crowd-pleasing charisma that Little River Band delivers. Get your tickets today for this extraordinary evening with Little River Band.
