Blues Brothers Concert in Wellington, Florida |
Blues Brothers Soul Band, a Blues Brothers tribute band |
Wellington fans looking for a Blues Brothers concert have a nearby option this fall, though the show is not in Wellington.
The Blues Brothers Soul Band is listed to perform October 2, 2026, from 8 to 10 p.m. in Delray Beach.
That distinction matters for anyone making plans: the listed address is 94 NE 2nd Ave, Delray Beach.
No Wellington performance is confirmed in the event details, so locals should plan for a trip rather than a hometown show.
For fans willing to travel, the draw is a familiar one: sharp suits, larger-than-life characters and the punch of rhythm and blues.
This Blues Brothers tribute band builds its act around Jake and Elwood Blues, the fictional brothers whose musical misadventures became a cultural touchstone.
Paul Ferretti takes on Jake, while Robert Vicens plays Elwood, backed by musicians on guitar, keyboards, bass, drums and horns.
That full-band lineup gives the performance room to lean into the excitement and swagger that make this style of show more than a costume act.
The band's description evokes the soul and blues associated with Aretha Franklin, Tina Turner, Ray Charles and James Brown.
Those references set the mood, but they should not be mistaken for a confirmed setlist.
Guitarist Steve Pierce brings a background in blues and rhythm and blues, while keyboardist Stan Bernstein adds extensive live-performance experience.
With horns in the mix, the energy is likely to matter as much as the nostalgia for concertgoers.
For Wellington residents, the key takeaway is the location: this is a Delray Beach outing, not a concert within Wellington.
Still, a nearby evening of soul, blues and showmanship could be worth the trip for fans who love the brothers' unmistakable style. |

This seems like a pleasant option for Wellington fans willing to go to Delray Beach. I appreciate knowing up front that there is no hometown show confirmed.
We’re glad the location was helpful. No Wellington date is confirmed in the event details. This show is listed for Delray Beach.
Rosa DelgadoYes, I'd rather know before making plans. Delray is doable, but it's a different evening than a show in Wellington.
I am more interested in hearing the blues side than seeing the movie characters. Steve Pierce on guitar makes me curious about the sound.
The October date is helpful for planning ahead. I would check the event details again before driving from Wellington, just in case anything changes.
I have seen tribute bands where the players were better than the costumes. The lineup here sounds like the musicians are a big part of the draw.
The Jake and Elwood act could be a lot of fun with the right crowd. Delray is a bit of a trip, so I would want to make an evening of it.
Janet K.I'd do the same. Dinner in Delray before the show would make the drive feel more worthwhile.
Two hours sounds like plenty of time for a Blues Brothers tribute. I hope the band leaves room for the horn players to shine.
Terry WalshSame here. The horns are a big part of what makes those songs fun live.
I was curious whether this was a Wellington performance, so the address helps. It would be nice to see a local date added later.
A friend and I have been looking for a music night in Delray. I will mention this one to her, especially since we both love soul music.
The suits and characters are fun, but I would go for the rhythm and blues. Having horns in the lineup makes this more appealing to me.
I like that the show runs from 8 to 10 p.m. That gives people a reasonable idea of when they would be heading back from Delray.
Bethany ColeAgreed. Getting back around 10 is much easier to plan for than an open-ended show.
Stan Bernstein's live experience sounds like a plus for this kind of act. Keeping that music lively for two hours takes a solid band.
I would love to see a show like this in Wellington someday. For now, the October 2 performance in Delray might be worth the drive.
Delray Beach is doable from Wellington, but it is still something to plan for on an evening out. I appreciate the location being made clear.
The Aretha Franklin and Tina Turner references caught my attention. It helps to know those names describe the style and do not promise particular songs.
Exactly, the artists help describe the sound, but the event details don’t confirm specific songs.
A full band with guitar, keyboards and horns is a good sign. Tribute shows can feel thin when too much of the music is prerecorded.
Steve Pierce's blues background sounds promising. I would be interested to hear how much of the night focuses on the music rather than the characters.
I am glad the address is included, since Delray Beach and Wellington are different trips for most of us. The show itself sounds like a good time.
Thanks for noting that. The listed address is 94 NE 2nd Ave in Delray Beach, so Wellington fans can plan for the trip.
My parents played the Blues Brothers soundtrack all the time when I was growing up. This could be a nice reason to take them to Delray.
That sounds like a lovely family outing. The Delray Beach show is listed for October 2, from 8 to 10 p.m.
The horns are what would get me interested in this show. A Blues Brothers tribute needs that big sound to feel right.
It is a little disappointing that there is no Wellington date confirmed. Delray is still close enough for fans who really want to see the band.
The 8 p.m. Start makes this a proper night out from Wellington. I would want to sort out parking in Delray before heading over.
Paul Ferretti as Jake and Robert Vicens as Elwood sounds like a fun pairing. The music will matter more to me than how close the costumes look.
The music is a big part of the appeal. Ferretti and Vicens will be backed by a full band, including horns.
I appreciate the note that the artists mentioned are not a confirmed setlist. I would still enjoy hearing what the band does with those influences.
October 2 gives people time to plan the drive to Delray Beach. A show with a full horn section sounds worth considering.
The Delray Beach location is worth pointing out for anyone in Wellington making plans. I would have assumed the show was closer to home otherwise.
Maria G.I nearly missed that too. Good thing they included the Delray address.
