Pump’s 2026 Concert Schedule: Aerosmith Tribute Shows Through July

It is never too early to plan your excursions for 2026 to see your favorite musical acts perform live.

If you like fantastic rock music, one of those bands sure not to miss is Pump, an entertaining Aerosmith tribute band, as it has a full slate of shows booked for the first part of 2026.

Pump’s first performance of the new year takes place on Friday, January 16th at 7:00 p.m. at Lucky Strike Bar & Grill at Port Jefferson (31 Chereb Ln, Port Jefferson Station, N.Y.).

“We will be doing two long sets here,” bass player and owner of Pump, Frank Tassielli, said. “This is a big tribute spot, and people really love the music.”

Next, on Friday, February 6th, at 7:30 p.m., Pump heads to The Warehouse at 203 Broadway Amityville, N.Y. Also, the three-piece Rush Tribute band Moving Pictures will be co-headlining with Pump.

Additionally, the Long Island-based group will hit the stage on Saturday, March 14th at 7:00 p.m. at Montana Brothers Pizzeria & Catering (385 S Main Street, Freeport, N.Y.).

Pump’s next show takes them out of state to Connecticut, to the outdoor space at Aquila’s Nest Vineyards (56 Pole Bridge Rd. in Sandy Hook, Ct.) on April 12th from 4:00 p.m. to 7:00 p.m.

Then, the hard-rocking tribute band will land at Hoyt Farm Nature Preserve (200 New Highway, Commack, N.Y.) on Sunday, June 28th at 7:00 p.m. as part of Smithtown’s Summer Concert Series.

Another must see summer show will take place at Pindar Vineyards located at 37645 NY-25, Peconic, N.Y., on the North Fork of Long Island, on Saturday, July 11th from 1:00 p.m. to 5:00 p.m.

“We had 2,000 people there in the fall, but this will be the first time for us in the summer,” Tassielli said. “There are busloads of people, and we love playing there. It’s a lot of fun.”

While playing more quality live shows is at forefront of Pump’s future, Tassielli eyes bigger performances and developing his band booking business, Franklin Bear Productions.

“I’m working on playing cruise ships and casinos,” the big New York Yankees fan said. “It’s about the bigger picture. “Plus, I’m looking to build my booking business, so I can help other tribute bands grow.”

Pump features bass player nad backing vocals Frank Tassielli, lead singer Mike Castella, Tom Collier on lead/rhythm guitars, Jason Perillo on lead/rhythm guitars and keyboards and Rich Savarese on drums.
