EARLY ELTON TRIO — Summer Tour ’26
Featuring Jeff Kazee, John Conte & Rich Pagano

Step back to the raw, electrifying early years of Elton John — when the music was stripped down, soulful, and bursting with creative fire.

Early Elton Trio is a powerful live tribute to Elton’s legendary 1970–72 trio tours with bassist Dee Murray and drummer Nigel Olsson. Featuring world-class musicians Jeff Kazee (Southside Johnny & The Asbury Jukes), Rich Pagano (The Fab Faux), and John Conte (Southside Johnny & The Asbury Jukes), the group faithfully captures the spirit, energy, and emotional depth of this iconic era.

Drawing from rare recordings, live performances, and Elton’s own early demos, the trio brings these songs to life with stunning authenticity — while adding their own musical spark. Expect unforgettable renditions of classics like “Take Me to the Pilot,” “Levon,” “Amoreena,” “Burn Down the Mission,” “Indian Sunset,” and more.

This is Elton at his most intimate, powerful, and inspired — a rare chance to experience the music the way it first shook the world.
