STRAIGHT NO CHASER: BEACH BASH!
Thursday, July 2 @ 8pm
Hall Auditorium

If the phrase “male a cappella group” conjures up an image of students in blue blazers, ties, and khakis singing traditional college songs on ivied campuses… think again. Straight No Chaser (SNC) are neither strait-laced nor straight-faced, but neither are they vaudeville-style kitsch. Straight No Chaser is the real deal, the captivating sound of nine unadulterated human voices coming together to make extraordinary music that is moving people in a fundamental sense… and with a sense of humor.

BOOGIE WONDER BAND
Saturday, July 18 @ 8pm
Hall Auditorium

After more than 3500 shows around the world the Boogie Wonder Band has become the most celebrated DISCO band of our generation. They have played in Canada, Bahamas, Bermuda, Cuba, China, Macao, Italy, Ecuador, Hawaii, Monaco, France, Japan, India and in over a hundred cities in the US, from casinos, to theatres, festivals and clubs like the famous Cutting Room in New York City, Los Angeles iconic Whisky a Gogo and Brooklyn Bowl in Las Vegas. Boogie Wonder Band is the ultimate celebration of disco fever—past, present, and future!
Over the years, BWB has had the privilege to share the stage with Kool & The Gang, Village People, The Jacksons, Rick James, War, CHIC, KC & the Sunshine Band, Gloria Gaynor, Maxine Nightingale, The Trammps, Paul Shaffer, Pointer Sisters, The Family Stone, Styx, Foreigner and the who’s who of funk and disco…
If we didn’t know better, we’d say that the Boogie Wonder Band, arrived via a time machine because this 10-piece band busts out funk-a-licious grooves and disco-strutting jams like they are straight out of the ‘70s. Channeling the era with a full throttle high-octane live show, each member dons eye-popping Las Vegas-inspired costumes and flashy personas. They don’t just hail from another land; they come from another decade – where Disco ruled the dance floors!
