9-20-2025 The Petty Larceny Band has been bringing the music of TOM PETTY & the HEARTBREAKERS, the TRAVELING WILBURYS, MUDCRUTCH and associated acts to venues throughout New England for more than a dozen years. Founded in Worcester, MA, Petty Larceny is, first and foremost, a rock band. Its members chose not to take the impersonation and prop-driven approach when forming a tribute band, instead focusing on capturing the sound and excitement of a live Petty performance for fans and newcomers alike while delivering searing rock performances. It seems to be paying off. In addition to playing packed houses in every New England state across dozens of shows each year, the band has won “Best Tribute Band” three years running in the Worcester Music Awards. The band features Scott Edman on lead vocals, winner of “Best Male Vocalist” in the Worcester Music Awards in 2024. Reena Langmeyer brings her dazzling voice and endless enthusiasm to our female lead and backing vocals. Matt Bruce’s jaw-dropping guitar work - both electric and acoustic - allows us to explore all the nuances of Petty’s music, while Brian Martin’s nimble fingers and “guitar God” status lets us burn down the house when needed, or deliver classic 12-string glory. Kent Anderson adds rolling organs, sparkling keys and driving synths. Drummer Brian Lizotte sets the tempo to keep the fans digging it, while Max Christian holds down the low end with his pristine bass lines.
