WISH YOU WERE HERE will perform their 10th Annual Summer Show on SATURDAY AUGUST 13 at the CUYAHOGA COUNTY FAIRGROUNDS in Berea OH at 8pm.
The band will play both “The Dark Side Of The Moon” and “Wish You Were Here” albums in their entirety, along with other Pink Floyd classics.
"Traditionally our 'Annual Summer Show' has celebrated a milestone Pink Floyd tour, anniversary, or WISH YOU WERE HERE achievement," according to WYWH bassist/vocalist Eric "Eroc" Sosinski. "Last year was a celebration of our band’s 15 Anniversary, so this year we are commemorating the City Of Cleveland’s official ‘Resolution of Congratulations’ that has just been presented to the band’s founders in recognition of WISH YOU WERE HERE as one of America's most successful Pink Floyd tributes.”
The band returns once again to the Grandstand Stage at the Cuyahoga County Fairgrounds, also again directly partnered with WNCX 98.FM, Cleveland's Classic Rock station, who are celebrating their 25th Anniversary. According to Sosinski, “We've had a great relationship with WNCX ever since we formed and they have certainly contributed to our success here in Northeast Ohio."
WNCX Program Director and Air Personality Bill Louis has long been a vital supporter of the band, often hosting live in-studio broadcasts and interviews. "You don't last 15 years without knowing exactly what your audience wants. If you want an authentic Pink Floyd experience, then you want to see WISH YOU WERE HERE," said Louis.

WISH YOU WERE HERE has gained international recognition (in The Rough Guide To Pink Floyd) for it’s detailed recreations of Pink Floyd’s greatest albums and tours, performing the 1973 Dark Side Of The Moon show on the very same stage at Blossom Music Center in 2006, and the 1977 Animals tour show at the Nautica Pavilion in Cleveland in July 2005. In 2008 the band staged the most elaborate production of The Wall ever performed by an American Pink Floyd tribute act, at TimeWarner Cable Amphitheater. Formed in 1987 under the moniker of “The Harvest Pink Floyd Revue”, and continuing in 1995 as WISH YOU WERE HERE, the band is one of the longest continually-performing Pink Floyd tribute acts in the world.
