    Kashmir, The Live Led Zeppelin Show, will return to The Newton Theatre on March 10 at 8 p.m. Tickets are on sale now, range from $29 to $44 and may be purchased by visiting www.TheNewtonTheatre.com or contacting the Box Office at 973-940-NEWT.
    Iconic ’70s band Led Zeppelin may have disbanded long ago, but the excitement and energy of its live shows lives on with Kashmir. In an explosive, high-energy rock concert Kashmir recreates the sound, likeness and experience of classic Led Zeppelin, unlike any since Robert Plant and Jimmy Page shared the stage.
    The show features a catalog of many of the greatest rock songs ever written as well as the sound-alike of Plant’s vocals, Page’s iconic double-neck guitar, Bonham’s drum solos and the stage show of the era.
    The band members are lead vocalist Jean Violet on harp, Andy Urban on guitar and theremin, Paul Cooper on drums and Felix Hanemann (of the multiplatinum band Zebra) on bass and keyboards.
    Urban, wearing Jimmy Page's signature dragon suit, dazzles with a bow solo in “Dazed and Confused” and the hypnotic use of the theramin during “Whole Lotta Love.” Paul Cooper hammers out drummer John Bonham's familiar rhythms including an authentic version of “Moby Dick.” Jean Violet’s dynamic vocal range and striking resemblance to Robert Plant completes the experience. Singing hits such as “Rock n Roll,” “Ramble On” and “Stairway To Heaven,” Violet demonstrates his vocal versatility with the same strength and subtleties that set Robert Plant and Led Zeppelin as the standard for bands to come.
    The Newton Theatre is at 234 Spring St. in Newton. For more information see at www.TheNewtonTheatre.com or by call 973-940-NEWT.
