So, who are "The Strangers"?
"The Strangers" a musical tribute to Billy Joel is comprised of 6 New England area accomplished professional musicians Jon Abrams, Denis Brunelle, Tom Fetters, Sean Fitzgerald, Don Goupil and Joe Laite all of which have been performing together in and out of several different musical ensembles throughout the years and plays all of Billy's hits and more with out the help of sequencing or digital trickery, just good old fashion talent. This band brings an unmistakable musicality and energy to their performance. With well over 25 years of masterful work by Billy Joel, "The Strangers"focuses on the music and not the "clone" tribute look. "The Strangers" performance can be best described by one of the band's fans...

"I heard the guys perform in Barrington, RI for a local fundraiser for the fist time and I could not stop listening. Jon Abrams is such a gifted pianist and an amazing vocalist, And the band is so good! I was so blown away by the musicianship in this group and I've been a musician and Billy Joel fan for over 20 years. It's hard to describe how much energy this band has and how much fun they are to see live" - Mark Molley.

The band reaches back into the history of Billy Joel's recognizable "hit bag" and pulls out countless memorable songs from his earliest hits of the 1970's through the 1990's and even covers the lesser known fan favorites from "Angry Young Man" to "Stiletto". "The Strangers" approaches every Billy Joel composition with intricate detail and musical attention that delivers a fun, exciting and musically fulfilling concert performance the whole family can enjoy.
