John Caffery & the Beaver Brown Band Rocks North Haven Connecticut

John Caffery

 

John Caffery & The Beaver Brown Band preformed again this year at the North Haven Fair. It was a beautiful night, much different than last year's pouring rain and the band played all their old hits which had the crowd on their feet and dancing. And when they performed their hit "On the dark side", it brought down the house.Michael Antunes

 

 

 

            The audience went crazy when John Caffery and Michael "Tune"  Antunes jumped down from the stage and mingled with the crowd. Michael's saxophone playing was hot as the band played their hit "Tender Years", which is also from the movie "Eddie and the Cruisers". For those of you who don't know Antunes, he also appeared in the movie.

It was an exceptional night at the North Haven Fair and a fantasic performance by John Caffery & The Beaver Brown Band. Don't miss out on the chance to see some great bands at the North Haven Fair. You still have time to see Chris Cagle, who will be performing Saturday and the Gin Blossoms on Sunday.
