originally published: 01/28/2025

(NEWARK, NJ) -- The New Jersey Performing Arts Center (NJPAC) presents Kashmir - The Spirit of Led Zeppelin Live! on Friday, September 19, 2025 at 8:00pm. Celebrate the 50th anniversary of Physical Graffiti with Kashmir, one of the most popular Led Zeppelin-inspired bands, featuring vocalist Jean Violet. This group is more than just a tribute band; it offers an immersive experience that brings the iconic music of Led Zeppelin to life.

You’ll experience the 1975 double album in its entirety, packed with iconic hits: “In My Time of Dying,” “Ten Years Gone,” “Down By the Seaside,” “Night Flight,” “Sick Again,” “The Wanton Song,” “The Rover,” “Trampled Under Foot” and “In the Light.” And of course, you’ll rock out to the larger-than-life anthem “Kashmir,” which Robert Plant and Jimmy Page called “the band’s definitive moment.” Live your Led Zeppelin fantasy with one of the top Zep tributes in the world.

This concert offers a complete audio and visual experience. The members of KASHMIR not only replicate the sound of Led Zeppelin but also bear a striking resemblance to the legendary band. This visual realism, combined with their intense sound, enhances the overall experience. Attending a KASHMIR concert is like being transported back to an era when musical giants walked the Earth.

Tickets are available for purchase online starting Friday, January 30th at 10:00am, by calling 888.GO.NJPAC (888.466.5722) or by visiting the NJPAC Box Office. New Jersey Performing Arts Center is located at 1 Center Street in Newark, New Jersey.

Founded by Jean Violet in 2000, the band has evolved from performing on the streets of New York City to becoming one of the premier Led Zeppelin tribute acts, captivating audiences both nationally and internationally

Meet The Band

Jean Violet As Robert Plant - Jean Violet embodies the spirit of a young Robert Plant with his long, golden mane and powerful, seductive vocals. His performance is a testament to Plant’s influence and charisma, capturing the essence of Led Zeppelin’s legendary frontman.

Kevin Slover As Jimmy Page - Kevin Slover channels the energy of a young Jimmy Page, donning the iconic black dragon suit and strutting the stage with confidence. His guitar work is a blend of power and finesse, delivering the blistering riffs and solos that defined Page’s style.

Tommy James As John Paul Jones - Multi-instrumentalist Tommy James takes on the role of “Jonesy” with ease, inspired by the creativity and musicianship of John Paul Jones.

David Blampied As John Bonham - David Blampied, the “keeper of the groove,” masterfully recreates the drumming of John Bonham.
