Get ready for an unforgettable evening of music as Tom DiMenna and his talented band bring the iconic story songs of the 1970s to life. Featuring the timeless works of Cat Stevens, Gordon Lightfoot, and Harry Chapin, this heartfelt tribute showcases DiMenna’s remarkable ability to channel the vocal and musical style of these legendary artists. Whether you’re a die-hard fan or new to their music, this performance promises to stir your soul, get your toes tapping, and have you humming along to the songs that defined a generation.
Maine-based singer/songwriter Tom DiMenna has been captivating audiences with his rich voice, masterful guitar playing, and knack for storytelling. His debut album, You Know Me, My Devil Says, released in 2020, was followed by a sold-out tour of Cat Stevens’ classics in 2021. Expanding his repertoire, DiMenna now includes the works of Gordon Lightfoot and Harry Chapin in a broader celebration of 1970s story songs.
Accompanied by a skilled ensemble, Tom recreates the magic of these unforgettable tracks, making them resonate as deeply today as they did decades ago. From the gentle wisdom of Cat Stevens to the poetic narratives of Gordon Lightfoot and the poignant tales of Harry Chapin, this show is a must-see for lovers of meaningful music.
But there’s more to Tom than his musical prowess. A fascinating journey led him to this stage. “I’ve been playing since college,” Tom shares, “where I was a lowly hand signaler on the football team. Then I played a year of semi-pro football for the Bologna Warriors in Italy. The experience of quarterbacking an Italian football team was pretty funny. I spent the next decade working on a movie about it.”
Tom also honed his comedic talents at the prestigious Second City and other improv schools in Chicago, L.A., and New York. One of his sketches, where he hilariously portrayed the ghost of Telly Savalas in a lounge act, evolved into an off-Broadway show that ran for several years. Eventually, Tom returned to his first love: music, settling in Maine with his partner, Lauren, and sharing his extraordinary gifts with audiences far and wide.
“I can’t say enough good things about Tom.” – Aimsel Ponti, Portland Press Herald
Join us for this one-of-a-kind tribute that will transport you back to the heart and soul of the ’70s. The legend lives on!
