Last year the music of Pink Floyd rocked capacity audiences at the Harris Center for the Arts with Greatest Hits and Rarities Part II. Due to the overwhelmingly positive feedback, this year marks the third Harris Center presentation of The Pink Floyd Experience! This year the group has crafted a brand new, exciting Floyd fan experience, 4 Sides of Floyd, complete with a dazzling new light show, giant screen HD Video, full quadraphonic sound and six brilliant musicians dedicated to bringing you the most authentic Floyd experience possible. It's "a must-see for any Pink Floyd enthusiast!" (C-News, Northampton, MA).

The music of Pink Floyd is more than simply an echo of days past. Pink Floyd continues to gain new fans today. Nearly 1,000,000 Pink Floyd catalog albums are sold each year worldwide. On average, more than 8,000 copies of Dark Side of the Moon are scanned each week in the U.S. alone, and Wish You Were Here and The Wall are also stalwarts on the Billboard Top Pop Catalog chart. Since then, the band's contemporary fans have long since replaced, or added to their vinyl Pink Floyd collections with CD versions. Clearly new generations are discovering the intense, cinematic, epic rock of Pink Floyd.

The Pink Floyd Experience! 4 Sides of Floyd will take place on Monday, March 30, 2015 and Tuesday, March 31, 2015 at 7 pm. Tickets are $39-$59; Premium $69. Tickets are available online at www.harriscenter.net or from Harris Center Ticket Office at 916-608-6888 from 10 am to 6 pm, Monday through Saturday, and two hours before show time. Parking is included in the price of the ticket. Harris Center is located on the west side of Folsom Lake College campus in Folsom, CA, facing East Bidwell Street.

Without question, Pink Floyd remains one of the most influential rock bands of all time. Their record-breaking status is legendary. Today, years since their last live performance, Pink Floyd's appeal continues to span the generations. Their shows were described as theatrical, with mind-blowing lights and unsurpassed sound. The show was not only onstage...it engulfed the audience. 4 Sides of Floyd is the show for the ultimate Floyd Fan, giving audiences the true Pink Floyd concert experience every year!

In this two-hour show, performed with over $2.5 million worth of production equipment on stage, The Pink Floyd Experience! should come with a warning for potential "retinal damage." But fans won't turn their heads away as the massive light show and HD projection brings the show right onto their laps. Even the icons that Pink Floyd have made their own - from the blinking eye to the marching hammers - have all been translated into clever hooks along the ride. Imagine your hair literally swept up by the helicopter that introduces the next song. 4 Sides of Floyd will cover just that, four different sides off of four different Floyd albums, back to back, along with a slew of fan favorites.

The Pink Floyd Experience! is a celebration of the music, the themes and the innovation that this great band brought to fans around the world. It is Pink Floyd, up close and personal without losing the scope and power of their performance.
