The Teddy Bear Band

  • The Newtown Theatre 120 North State Street Newtown, PA 18940 (map)

The Teddy Bear Band will perform a one-night-only concert at the Newtown Theatre on Friday, August 18 at 8 PM.

Formed in 2002 for Teddy Pendergrass’s comeback tour, The Teddy Bear Band features Bill and Brett Jolly on keys and bass, Rob Landham on sax, Johnnie Croom on percussion, and long-time guitarist Wawa LeGrand, the lone holdover from Teddy’s original Teddy Bear Orchestra.

Today, The Teddy Bear Band has reformed to celebrate that legendary 2002 tour and the music of the late, great Teddy Pendergrass. The band has added lead singer Don Connor, who embodies both Teddy’s voice and vibe.

Online tickets are $40 per person or $35 for theatre members. A limited number of VIP tickets will be sold for $60 per person ($55 for theatre members). VIP ticketholders receive prime seats and a pre-concert meet-and-greet with the band.
