Little River Band Returns to The Monkey on Heels of New Album.

Plymouth, New Hampshire - At 7:30pm on Thursday, August 8th, The Flying Monkey is honored to bring Little River band back to their stage.  Known as one of the most influential bands ever to come out of Australia, they have a bagful of international hits, as well as a brand new album with exciting new material.   Tickets for this concert start at $39.

Little River Band was the first Australian band to successfully conquer foreign markets from an Australian base. Within eight months of their birth in 1975, they had already scored three Australian Top 20 singles and two Top Ten albums. Then in 1976, their self-titled album was released in the US and Canada and they began their first of many tours across North America. Headlining their own major shows and touring internationally with the likes of The Doobie Brothers, Supertramp, America and The Eagles was a huge learning curve that honed Little River Band into one of the finest live bands in the industry.

Total record sales around the world eclipsed the twenty-five million mark with sixteen hit singles by 1985 as well as gold, platinum and multi-platinum album sales awards. Their hits include “It’s a Long Way There,” “Help Is On Its Way,” “Happy Anniversary,” “Reminiscing,” “Lady,” “Lonesome Loser” and “Cool Change.”

The band’s members Wayne Nelson, Greg Hind, Chris Marion, Rich Herring and Mel Watts feel that The Little River Band is as strong as ever having finely tuned their unique sound through 30 years of touring, they will continue to tour successfully creating new fans worldwide!

 “Since their last stop in Plymouth LRB has recorded a new album with plenty of exciting new material,” says Seth McNally, Entertainment Director at The Flying Monkey.   “Fans can expect to hear some great new music for the very first time as well as all of their hits.”

Tickets to the Little River Band concert are $39, and $49 for premier seats. For more information on upcoming shows or to purchase tickets call the box office at 603-536-2551 or go online at www.flyingmonkeyNH.com.
