Friday & Saturday, March 25 & 26, 2022 at 8:00 PM at South Orange Performing Arts Center

America’s pre-eminent Pink Floyd tribute band, The Machine, is coming to SOPAC for back-to-back nights featuring two classic albums that will be played in their entirety. Hear The Wall on Friday, October 8 and then hear Greatest Hits & Obscurities on Saturday, October 9.

The Machine

The Machine performs Pink Floyd, America’s top Pink Floyd show, has forged a 30+ year reputation for extending the legacy of Pink Floyd, selling out theaters, premier showcase rooms and casinos across North America, Europe and Asia, performing at renowned music festivals such as Bonnaroo, Riverbend and Gathering of the Vibes and sharing the stage with full symphony orchestras, including the Atlanta, Detroit, Pittsburgh, Jacksonville and San Diego Symphonies, as well as the Buffalo Philharmonic.

With stellar musicianship and passionate delivery, The Machine explores collective improvisation rivaling that of an early 1970s Pink Floyd. Their use of expanded theatrical elements and elaborate stage displays and lighting continues in the spirit of the later Pink Floyd of the 1980s. The band is also known for recreating entire albums as a part of their show, accepting requests from fans and for taking an A to Z approach in which one song is played for every letter of the alphabet. Special shows include lasers by the same company that provides classic Pink Floyd laser effects for Roger Waters and David Gilmour tours.

“They duplicate the sound and hits of Pink Floyd with chilling accuracy and they play for a hell of a long time.” ~Matt Diehl, Rolling Stone

“These guys are great!” -~Bob Ezrin, Co-Producer, Pink Floyd’s The Wall

“The Machine look nothing like Pink Floyd, but that doesn’t matter – they sound exactly like Pink Floyd and that’s what counts.” ~Matthew Webber, Spin Magazine
