From the hauntingly beautiful melodies of “Rhianon” and “Songbird” to the electrifying energy of “Go Your Own Way,” every performance is a journey through the timeless classics that defined a generation and continues to influence pop and rock music today.

Each member of Rumours ATL: A Fleetwood Mac Tribute brings a unique touch to their role, immersing themselves in the essence of their iconic counterparts.

Yet, beyond the impeccable recreations, there is an enigmatic quality to their performances that keeps the audiences guessing and longing for more.

Their intricate harmonies and evocative stage presence create an atmosphere where each concert feels both familiar yet enchantingly new.

The concert will take place at the Williamsport Scottish Rite Theater, an 1,100-seat venue offering fans an exciting live music experience with incredible acoustics. Proceeds from the event will benefit the Williamsport Scottish Rite’s ongoing philanthropic efforts, including community outreach, charitable giving, and educational programs.

“We’re very excited to bring in Rumours ATL: A Fleetwood Mac Tribute. The group puts on an incredible show, and we’re thrilled to have them,” states Jack Becker, Event Committee Chair. “This concert is one of three upcoming fundraising events for the 2026-27 season with 60% of the monies raised going to various local charitable organizations as well as supporting Scottish Rite charities such as children’s dyslexia centers, continuing undergraduate and graduate scholarships for young men and women from Scottish Rite families, and providing assistance to Masons and their families facing unexpected hardships.”

Jim Shaible, President of the Board of Trustees for the Williamsport Scottish Rite, stated, “After many years of the Scottish Rite Theater being underutilized, we started earlier this year hosting a tribute band with local ties. For the first time out the gate, it was quite a successful event, offering a safe venue to our audience, and proving that we have the abilities and skills necessary to bring in quality entertainment acts. Our venue has exceptional acoustics according to the sound company and the attendees gave us great reviews. Moving forward, we are planning up to four major concerts in 2027 using tribute bands as an affordable and cost-effective alternative to provide live entertainment to the local community while helping to raise money to support local nonprofits and Masonic charities,”

The local non-profits who received donations so far are: Lycoming County SPCA, American Rescue Workers, YMCA/YWCA, American Red Cross, Central PA Food Bank, and Janet Weis Children’s Hospital.
