Mark Farner’s American Band

All guests attending OME events at Sugar Loaf Performing Arts Center will need to provide a vaccination card or proof of a negative test result within 48 hours of showtime. OME Events presents Mark Farner’s American Band at Sugar Loaf Performing Arts Center on Saturday, April 23rd. Farner’s hit “I’m Your Captain (Closer to Home)” became a rock anthem during the Vietnam war era. Now, 50 years later and in his 70’s, Farner commands the stage with the same intensity and outpouring of love as he did during the summer of ’69 and his fans are still flocking to see “The Captain.” A husband, a father, and grandfather, and in his fourth decade of marriage to wife Lesia, Mark is a true family man. His love for the American military, as well as his humble beginnings and blue-collar roots, are nearly paramount to his musical legacy.
