Back 2 Mac's 40+ song list spans all the hits of the chart-topping Buckingham / Nicks / McVie era, solo hits and early classics by Peter Green and Bob Welsh. Lush vocal harmonies and an easy-going playfulness with the audience distinguish Back 2 Mac performances from those of other tributes, a result of the combined years of music-making among the band members who have played and recorded with Leon Russell, Bob Weir, The Impressions, Days Of The New, Josh Ritter, Anais Mitchell, and Kevin Morby. Pooling their experiences into electrifying performances of Fleetwood Mac music, Back 2 Mac play small theaters, city-sponsored events, and great rock and roll venues including City Winery (Nashville, Philly, Chicago, and Boston), Brooklyn Bowl (Brooklyn); Headliners Music Hall (Louisville); The Bluebird (Bloomington IN), and Stephen Foster Amphitheater (Bardstown KY). In 2023, the band expanded its reach to 12 major cities and 20 secondary markets across the eastern United States.
