The Band

Tupelo Honey is a celebration of the music of the man with many names. They call him “Van The Man”, they call him “The Master”…He was one of earliest inductees into the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame and has written some of the most iconic songs in popular music… He is Van Morrison.

“Moondance”, “Into The Mystic”, “Brown Eyed Girl”, “Have I Told You Lately”, “Crazy Love”, “Someone Like You”, “Crazy Love” …the list goes on and on and on and Tupelo Honey celebrates this impressive catalog of songs with some of the finest musicians.

Tupelo Honey is a celebration. Sing along, dance, and enjoy the great music. We’re here to make sure you have a wonderful time!

Comprised of some of the finest musicians on the East Coast, each band member is dynamic on their own, but as a band they are electric.

When you watch the musicians in Tupelo Honey, you’re seeing the real thing. No special effects, no backing tracks, no tricks. Just great music, written by a legendary songwriter. And most importantly… a GREAT TIME!

Testimonials

We thoroughly enjoyed the show, what a pleasant surprise. We definitely recommend them to everyone!
Greg & Carolyn from Hatfield
We absolutely loved them! We danced and sang all night long to every song. The night we saw the show was actually their 2nd time performing the Van Morrison celebration. Was blown away when we found that out. We thought they have been performing together for years! ❤️ Can't wait to see them again!
Tammy May

Karen Lewis
Absolutely awesome Friday night at the Landis Theater in Vineland NJ.

My husband and I saw your performance last night in Newton. We travelled all the way from Louisville, Kentucky and you did not disappoint. Vantastic! ❤️ You asked for song suggestions so here are a few of our favorites to consider. The Healing Game, Sweet Thing, In the Garden, In the Days Before Rock and Roll, Philosophers Stone, Rain Check, Stranded, Queen of the Slipstream, Enlightenment… I could go on and on 😊...

Erin Philbin Parfitt
We saw you guys last weekend at the Newton Performing Arts Center... what an awesome show!!! The tickets were my bday gift from my boyfriend and I couldn't have asked for anything better. We love Van Morrison believe that he could sing the ABC song and make it magical and you guys just did his music proud... we loved it!! Thank you all for helping to celebrate my 58th in such a memorable way. We look forward to seeing you again soon.
Robin & Alec Kirkley
I’m a serious Vanatic since Passaic 1979 and I saw you tonight at Etta Park in East Windsor tonight. I’ve seen The Man every tour ever since. Now that I’ve established my bona fides I wanted to let you know that you are fantastic! I enjoyed the show so much and I am so glad to have seen your performance for the first time but not the last. I’ve posted your setlist and a couple of videos of tonight’s show in a Van Fan group and I am already receiving responses raving about you. I can’t wait to hear from my European friends tomorrow. Thank you for an incredible evening!!!
Adam Falk
You guys did a great job last night and made our night special by recognizing our wedding song. We never had a chance to dance alone to that as our wedding party all joined us immediately, it was nice to share that with my wife alone, except for the 300 people watching us. Thanks again, we will see you guys again.
Rusty Smith
Easily one of the best live shows you'll see this year. An absolute BLAST!!
