Ella and Louis were the best of friends with voices and talent that beautifully complimented their friendship. Get ready to sing along to their popular duets, solo tunes and learn more about why these two are rightfully named Jazz Music’s Perfect Partnership!
BAD MOON RISING:

Creedence Clearwater Revival, also commonly known as CCR, set the precedent for 1970’s Classic Rock. CCR’s era of chart topping success keeps their music relevant to this day as they continue their run on the Billboard charts with songs like Bad Moon Rising and Proud Mary, as well as pave the way for today’s biggest bands!
RHYTHM NATION:
The Music of Janet Jackson
May 22- 25
Hailing from arguably the most talented family band of our time, Janet Jackson has courageously defined her own path and legacy through her music which has made its unforgettable mark on the music industry. As a true triple threat, Janet has gifted us over the years with music to sing to, dance to and enjoy on screen. The rhythm of our nation wouldn’t be what it is without the contributions of Janet, Ms. Jackson!
BROTHERLY LOVE:
The Music of the Everly & Doobies
July 17-20
This show pays tribute to three bands of Brothers who performed some of the most popular tunes in styles ranging from Country Rock, Rock and Roll and Blue-Eyed Soul. All icons in their own right, these bands gave groups like The Beatles and The Bee Gees the inspiration needed to follow in their footsteps. Come along with us on this journey as we jam the night away to the rockin’, soul-filled tunes from The Everly Brothers, The Righteous Brothers and The Doobie Brothers.
THAT’S WHAT FRIENDS ARE FOR:
The Music of Dionne Warwick & Lionel Richie
September 11 – 14
As pioneers of R&B music and pop-chart veterans, the timeless hits of Dionne Warwick and Lionel Richie still give us life to this day. Their philanthropic efforts through songs like “That’s What Friends Are For” and “We Are The World” has impacted the entire planet. Dionne, Aunt to Pop Princess Whitney Houston and Lionel, Lead Singer from the world renown funk band, The Commodores, continue to remind us why their legacy (and music) has stood the test of time.
THE GUITAR MAN:
The Music of James Taylor & Jimmy Buffet
November 6-9
Folk rock and Yacht rock may not exist today without the memorable contributions of James Taylor and Jimmy Buffet. Their melodic guitar sounds coupled with their unique, distinctive vocals are a perfect match that can’t be denied. Songs like “Fire and Rain” and “Margaritaville” will take us back in time as we celebrate tunes made famous by these two Artists.
