Dean Ford & the Beautiful Ones perform the music of Prince at The Kate
The Katharine Hepburn Cultural Arts Center, “the Kate”, welcomes back Dean Ford & the Beautiful Ones on Thursday, August 3, 2023, at 7:30 pm.
Dressed 2 the 9’s, Dean Ford embodies Prince with every fiber of his being, giving the audience a show as close as you will ever get to the real thing. Ford and company perform all the hits, including the “Purple Rain” album in its entirety. But, it’s more than just the songs. He’s got the look, the moves, and the sounds down jaw-droppingly well. So well, you’ll forget it’s only a tribute.
It all started in 2011, when Dean Ford and his musician friends put on their first of many sold-out tributes to the Purple One in Portland, Maine. The show, lovingly entitled “Purple Brainz” is now held annually at the prestigious Port City Music Hall. Past shows have featured Prince and The Revolution’s own keyboardist Matt “Doctor” Fink. Lately, Ford has been sticking with a rotation of his core band, The Beautiful Ones. Though, he and the band have plenty of surprises up their frilled sleeves.
