About Vendor 

Learn more about this vendor for your event.

Pafford Burke & The Uptown Society Band performs themed shows with favorite classic songs from the '50s to the '80s. The band features New England's #1 Roy Orbison Tribute Show. This tribute takes you on a journey from Roy’s earliest hits in the 1960’s such as “Only The Lonely” and “Oh, Pretty Woman” to his remarkable 1980s comeback with the Traveling Wilburys and his posthumous “Mystery Girl” album. Coupled with authentic instrumental arrangements and lush vocal harmonies performed by a dynamic and vibrant 7-piece band, Pafford’s classically trained voice channels the essence of Orbison while infusing it with his unique flair, blending nostalgia with a fresh, contemporary sound. In addition to Roy Orbison, Pafford reinterprets the songs of Smokey Robinson, Bobby Hatfield, Van Morrison, BB King, Del Shannon, Johnny Rivers, The Searchers, Jackson Browne, Dion, Sam Cooke, Otis Redding, and more.
