Catch Symphonic Rock Tributes from some of the Best Musical Eras This Season


Revisiting the music of our youth through live performances can be a powerful and
personal journey. From upbeat tributes to emotive homages, these shows allow us
to reconnect with the songs that defined our coming-of-age. The Soda Jerks’ infec-
tious tunes instantly transport us back to simpler times, while Michael Cavanaugh’s
Elton John showcase captures the essence of those timeless hits. And the raw en-
ergy of grunge-era anthems taps into the angst we felt as teenagers, reminding us
of our deep personal connection to that music. Experiencing these live performanc-
es is about more than just hearing the songs – it’s about fully immersing ourselves
in the memories and emotions they evoke.


A high energy nostalgic journey through the iconic sounds that defin-
ed a generation with music from Alternative Rock classics by Green
Day, Smashing Pumpkins, Red Hot Chili Peppers, Radiohead, and
Alanis Morisette, to the Seattle Grunge scene and beyond with bands
like Nirvana, Foo Fighters, and Pearl Jam.

onic love letter to that indelible show and the iconic songs heard
on that show. Songs from Bobby Rydell, Frankie Avalon, Fabian,
Smokey Robinson, and more!
