March Artists and Themes

March has always been known as the windy month, but more recently it has also become a ceremonial month for music and film.

For the weekend of 3/6-7, The Acoustic Storm will be featuring acoustic-rock from the movies to celebrate the March 7th Academy Awards.

The Doors will star in the Eye of The Storm, with music from Oliver Stone's 1991 biopic, "The Doors" and rare sound bites from Jim Morrison and Ray Manzarek.

The main cast will also include The Beatles, Led Zeppelin, Stones, Who, Clapton, Petty, Seger, Dylan, and Jackson Browne, among others. We'll hear music from movies like "The Big Chill," "Forest Gump," "Jerry Maguire." "The Graduate," and one of this year's most-nominated films, "Up in the Air."

On March 15th, Genesis and the Hollies will be among the artists inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame.

For the weekend of 3/13-14, we'll feature Genesis in the Eye of The Acoustic Storm, including solo stuff from Peter Gabriel and Phil Collins.

For the weekend of 3/27-28, the Graham Nash and the Hollies will get the spotlight in the Eye of The Storm.

Here's the March schedule:

3/6-7: DOORS (Silver Screen Storm: salute to the Oscars)

3/13-14: GENESIS (Rock Hall of Fame Tribute)

3/20-21: BOB SEGER
