About LoveAsItWas

“It was a great night with ‘Love As It Was’ as the main entertainment for our benefit fundraiser! As I looked around at the audience; everyone was singing and likely reminiscing because the tunes are familiar and it’s just done so well! John Pilmer was a great source for our PR with contacts to the local news that we desperately needed!” - Alison Chuntz,  fundraising committee chairman, Family Support and Treatment Center

LoveAsItWas plays an eclectic collection of classic rock, the blues, show tunes and a touch of light jazz that celebrates “forever love” between a man, a woman and the family their love creates. Soft and cozy love songs are accented with occasional visits to the edgy side of rock n’ roll, strolls down the swampy path to the blues, and periodic trips to the country broadens the band's appeal. 

Classics Show - Features the classic hits of the 60’s & 70’s that people request most. If you are a Baby Boomer these are songs that have endured your cheap record player as a teen, been heard in the elevator, survived as grocery store background music, have been played by your children’s marching band, and have come back full circle to the stage where they began. Consistent crowd pleasers include Brown-Eyed Girl, Something, Hound Dog, and Peaceful Easy Feeling to name a few, plus a little Led Zep, Clapton, and Hendrix add some high energy.

Show Tunes Saturday Night – Features variations on some of the most beloved tunes from Broadway musicals. Amanda’s dynamic vocal range brings each song to its fullest potential. Songs like Love Changes Everything from Aspects of Love by Andrew Lloyd Webber and Stranger to the Rain from Children of Eden by Stephen Schwartz.
