College of The Albemarle’s Performing Arts Center in Elizabeth City is excited to announce a night of legendary rock music with Trial By Fire, a Journey tribute band, on Saturday, October 12, at 7 p.m.

In 1996, Journey reunited to release their tenth studio album, Trial by Fire. Just as fans anticipated a high-energy tour, plans were put on hold when Steve Perry, Journey’s lead singer and frontman, sustained an injury that canceled the tour. Trial By Fire strives to provide that tour experience for Journey fans. 

Comprised of five talented North Carolina-based musicians, Trial By Fire brings the essence of Journey’s Steve Perry era to the stage, recreating the energy, sound, and emotion of a Journey concert. Audiences will be treated to all the timeless hits, from “Don’t Stop Believin’” and “Separate Ways” to “Lights” and “Faithfully.” 

 This is your chance to experience the magic of rock’s golden era, when concerts pulled you in, the crowd knew every word, and the energy was electric from start to finish. Trial By Fire will take you back to those days, bringing the heart and soul of Journey’s music to life in a way that’s sure to leave a lasting impression. 

The COA Performing Arts Center is located at 1208 N. Road Street in Elizabeth City.
