Unplugged - A Tribute to MTV Tickets

Unplugged - A Tribute to MTV is a Buffalo-based, first-of-its-kind MTV Unplugged tribute act fronted by Paul Waneczki. The project aims to faithfully recapture the intimate, acoustic-driven atmosphere of MTV’s iconic Unplugged performances, often highlighting a Goo Goo Dolls–centered set in select performances. Promoted as the first and only MTV Unplugged tribute band in the United States, Unplugged has toured major venues in Western New York and beyond, earning praise from artists and fans for its authentic sound and engaging live experience.

The group’s dynamic live shows have included notable performances like Unplugged – A Tribute To MTV at Town Ballroom in Buffalo on March 24, 2023. The Goo Goo Dolls’ own VVH1 Storytellers-inspired energy and philanthropy have intersected with the act, most recently showcased at a February 17, 2024 Town Ballroom event that supported Music is Art and received public blessing from the Goo Goo Dolls themselves.

Led by lead vocalist Paul Waneczki, the band continues to build a national footprint with a rotating setlist that spotlights songcraft from MTV Unplugged-era acts, with occasional Goo Goo Dolls selections resonating with audiences who remember that era. Social media updates and fan interactions are managed under the band handle @unpluggedtributeband across Facebook, Instagram, and TikTok.

Upcoming tour dates in 2025 include Rochester, NY (Flour City Station) on October 3, Syracuse, NY (Westcott Theater) on November 8, Warrendale, PA (Jergel's Rhythm Grille) on December 18, and Cleveland, OH (House of Blues) on December 19. While the act does not release commercially released albums or singles, fans can expect a carefully curated live experience that captures the essence of MTV Unplugged and the nostalgic energy of acoustic rock from beloved bands.
