The Doors: Unhinged featuring Reggie Headen

With an intoxicating, genre-blending sound, provocative and uncompromising songs, and the mesmerizing power of singer Jim Morrison’s poetry and presence, The Doors had a transformative impact not only on popular music but on popular culture. This Asheville-based quintet, fronted by the charismatic and electrifying Reggie Headen, features an all-star, highly sought after group of musicians: Jonathan Pearlman (Musical Director and guitarist), Taylor Pierson (keyboards), Zack Page (bass) and Jay Hoots (drums). Pearlman says, “There’s something very daring, dangerous and dark about the Doors’ music. We’ve tried to capture that. We found it challenging to approximate their chemistry and alchemy. I believe that we got it right!”

Jonathan Pearlman (JP) is a veteran of the Western North Carolina Music Scene. Under his pseudonym, Alien Music Club, he’s recorded over a dozen albums of original music and produced countless amazing shows, selling out one after the other after the other. These shows include The Doors: Unhinged, Tom Waits: The Early Years, Leonard Cohen: The Deep Cuts, Paul Simon Meets Beatles and The British Are Coming!

Reggie Headen is a native North Carolinian and graduate of the American Musical and Dramatic Academy in NYC. He sees the stage as a medium of many possibilities to connect and engage an audience. He started his professional career as a featured performer at New York’s famous Broadway concert venue Town Hall, playing to giants and peers in the industry. He can be heard singing anything from Aretha Franklin to Jefferson Airplane. The power and panache of his live performances are ones for the history books. Headen beguiles and astounds. A fearless performer and heartfelt old soul vocalist.
