Celtic Nights

Tuesday, February 7, 8pm
$30 / $35

Celtic Nights expertly weaves together the lilting melodies and plaintive lyrics of the rich Celtic heritage to tell the story of a people. In this stirring tale of the Celtic experience, the audience is invited to travel along on a journey of hope, transported in time through traditional ballads, vivid choreography and the story of a people struggling to find their place in a changing world.

Celtic Nights is a unique show which features both the finest male and the finest female voices of the Celtic world, showcased against a thundering backdrop of expert dancing and musicianship. In this glittering production, six of Ireland’s most prominent vocal talents are complimented by six of its most accomplished step dancers, creating an exhilarating picture of a proud people who dared to dream big and doggedly carved out a home in the New World. In Celtic Nights, their story is told, through the power and majesty of music and the hypnotic fury of dancing feet. Learn more...

Soul Salvation
featuring Ruthie Foster and Paul Thorn

Wednesday, February 8, 8pm
$25

One black, one white. One from Texas, one from Mississippi. One woman (with her band), and one man (solo). Both raised in the church. Both steeped in the tradition of American music, and both putting their own contemporary twists on it – blending
blues, rock, gospel, folk, R&B, and country music. Most importantly, both have a whole lotta soul!

Ruthie Foster and Paul Thorn have taken their careers to new heights with their most recent releases: Ruthie’s new, deeply  intimate recording ‘Let It Burn’ and Paul’s June 2010 release, ‘Pimps & Preachers.’ But it is their live shows that have really established Ruthie and Paul as two of America’s freshest and finest performers. Perhaps it’s the shared experience of the lively church music of their youth that has made them such compelling entertainers. Ruthie sang in church as a child and Paul was raised the son of a Pentacostal preacher. Whatever the reason, their songs of humanity and redemption have earned them enthusiastic fans and high praise from press, promoters and fans alike.

Jake Shimabukuro
 BACK BY POPULAR DEMAND!

Friday, February 10, 8pm
$30 / $35

It’s rare for a young musician to earn comparisons to the likes of Jimi Hendrix and Miles Davis. It’s even harder to find an artist who has entirely redefined an instrument by his early thirties. But Jake Shimabukuro (she-ma-boo-koo-row) has already accomplished these feats, and more, in a little over a decade of playing and recording music…on the ukulele.

Yes, the ukulele. In the hands of Shimabukuro, the traditional Hawaiian instrument of four strings and two octaves is stretched and molded into a complex and bold new musical force. On his most recent album ‘Peace Love Ukulele’ (which debuted at #1 on the Billboard World Album Chart), Jake and his “uke” effortlessly (it seems) mix jazz, rock, classical, traditional Hawaiian music, and folk, creating a sound that’s both technically masterful and emotionally powerful…and utterly unique in the music world.

Tuck & Patti
 VALENTINE'S WEEKEND

Saturday, February 11, 8pm
$25 / $30

For nearly three decades, this unique vocal/guitar jazz duo has cast its passionate musical spell worldwide, capturing the hearts of lovers, the respect of jazz buffs, and the jaw-dropping awe of guitarists.

With 29 years of performing together, and 26 years of marriage, the devotion forged by this extraordinary couple shows no sign of dimming from the pressure of familiarity. For them, this pressure creates more diamond than dust. Their instinct for refining their music, their technique and their career—their home studio makeover—their house and garden renovation—never wavers from their credo: It's not done if it's not from the heart. And what comes from the heart demands excellence.
