Mellencougar

Mellencougar, is the only Tribute to John Mellencamp that has featured members of John's actual band! Mellencougar is made up of a group of musicians from the Midwest with an appreciation for the danceable poetry of John Mellencamp.

The shared experiences described in John’s lyrics bring the audience and band together while singing songs about our youthful and rebellious days in songs like “Hurt So Good”, “Ain’t Even Done With The Night” and “I Need A Lover." As the fiddle and guitar sing with the bass drum hits, patriotic songs like “ROCK in the U.S.A.”, “Our Country” and “Pink Houses” drive you to dance as we return to Skokie for another summer of Wednesdays on the Green!
