The Great Escape - Tribute To Journey

About Me

The Great Escape is the Ultimate Journey Experience!Formed in early 2008 The Great Escape performs the timeless music of Journey with precision, high energy and genuine passion each and every time they hit the stage.
Whether playing in a large scale venue, a private function, or a sports bar, the Great Escape aim to leave their audience energized, entertained and eagerly anticipating their next show.
Highlights for the band to date have included playing several successful concerts in the majestic Wolf Den at the Mohegan Sun casino in Uncasville, CT, inspiring many audience and staff members to ask if Journey was actually playing!
In 2009, The Great Escape was voted New England's Best Tribute Band at Limelight Magazine's Awards Show! The Great Escape was also included in the 2008 summer issue of Limelight Magazine.
Jason Paulino fronts the band with his powerful vocals and enthusiastic energy. When singing the songs of Journey, Jason’s vocals are indistinguishable from Steve Perry - it’s an amazing sight to see and hear. Rich Vigdor is the band’s lead guitarist. Rich will dazzle any audience with his note-for-note renditions of Journey’s familiar guitar riffs and solos. Peter Ferlisi fills a big role with his keyboard and piano playing, a critical piece in so many Journey songs, as well as adding key vocal harmonies. The backbone of the band is filled by Tony Clement, conducting the band with his power and precision drumming, and the rhythmic, agile bass playing of Bob Wheeler.
Come experience The Great Escape as they breakout their high energy musical performance and take you on an incredible Journey!
