Lying at the intersection of a chamber music ensemble, rock band, and art project, Mikael Darmanie (Piano), Ju Young Lee (Cello), and Josh Henderson (Violin) are pushing the boundaries of music consumption through inter-disciplinary collaborations and eclectic programming that includes elec- trifying original material, dynamic interpretations of popular music, improvisation, and unique takes on classical reper- toire.

BRING BACK THAT LOVIN’ FEELIN’: A SALUTE TO THE RIGHTEOUS BROTHERS AND BLUE-EYED SOULS - SOLD OUT Featuring Chach Snook, Alex Mack and the LSP Band st Friday, March 1 at 3:00 PM and 7:00 PM Tickets: $25 in advance - $30 at door The term “blue-eyed soul,” originally coined in the 60s, refers to musicians who were influenced by soul rhythm and blues. Sensa- tional artists such as The Righteous Brothers, The Rascals, Johnny Rivers and Hall & Oates were the cornerstones of this movement, and their music has inspired artists ever since. Bring Back That Lovin’ Feelin' promises a soulfully sensational eve- ning with a full band and powerhouse vocals! THE LIMELITERS th Tuesday, March 5 at 3:00 PM (ADDED) and 7:00 PM Tickets: $20 in advance – $25 at door The unique blend of surging vocals, thrilling harmony, whacked out humor and classic folk music of this unique trio continue to earn them their title as The Fabulous Limeliters! The Limeliters launched their career in 1959 at San Francisco’s famous “Hungry i” and before long, founding members Alex Hassilev, Lou Gottlieb, and Glenn Yarbrough emerged as one of the dominant voices of the early 1960’s folk music scene. A string of best-selling albums for RCA Records and television appearances quickly made The Limeliters a household name. Throughout the ensuing years, the lineup has featured several spectacularly talented new members, but The Limeliters have never deviated from the integrity of the fabulous sound they pio- neered. With an undiminished energy and enthusiasm, current members Don Marovich, Andy Corwin, and Gaylan Taylor re- main as exciting an act as the genre has produced. ARIZONA GHOST TOWN DOUBLE FEATURE: Ghost Town Trail and Ghost Towns of Old Arizona Two Films by Phil Wenstrand Wednesday, March 6 th at 7:00 PM Tickets: $10 in advance - $15 at door The Ghost Town Trail isn’t necessarily a real place but is com- posed of the few images and stories that remain of Arizona’s frontier past. The “Trail” takes the viewer down a path that leads to riches, treasure and murder. Jimmy Pierce was just eating his lunch when he discovered a fortune. The Haldeman brothers were just defending themselves but they became the victims of “The Last Hanging” of Tombstone. Frontier Arizona was a very hostile place. Forbidding deserts, heat and unfriendly natives made pio- neering here as tough as any place in the west. As miners dug in search of riches, others built camps that turned into towns. These films will take you into these fascinating and often dangerous places as filmmaker Phil Wenstrand follows the stories and lives of those who braved frontier Arizona. HIGH TIDE: TRIBUTE TO THE BEACH BOYS TAD Management Thursday and Friday, March 7-8 at 3:00 PM and 7:00 PM Tickets: $25 in advance – $30 at door This Beach Boys tribute show has been featured at Disneyland and many other major venues throughout the country. The spot on vocals and versatile musicianship of the band will guarantee a rocking good time! High Tide will have you on the edge of your seat as it transports you to the beaches of southern California. This show truly captures the essence of the original Beach Boys with stunning harmonies and the genius of Brian Wilson’s music. A TRIBUTE TO MARTY ROBBINS - SOLD OUT With the Big Iron Band Saturday, March 9 th at 3:00PM and 7:00PM Tickets: $25 in advance - $30 at door The Big Iron Band is back to present their faithful tribute to the music of Marty Robbins! Robbins was not only a songwriter, multi-instrumentalist and racecar driver; he was one of the most successful singers in the world for the greater part of four dec- ades. Robbins had 16 number one hits between 1952 and 1976. Chris Campbell, leader of the Big Iron Band, has been captured by the intrigue of Marty Robbins for most of his life. The primary objective of the band is to keep the Marty’s music and memory alive for future generations. The Big Iron Band is comprised of Chris Campbell lead vocals/guitar , J.D. Hoag lead guitar , Billy Easton pedal steel guitar , Rick Puzzo drums , Denny Sarver up- right bass , and Michael Campbell Jr. & Mike Campbell Sr. back- ing vocals . You will hear classic songs such as El Paso, White Sport Coat, Big Iron, Devil Woman and much more! JACK LASSETER The Spanish History of California th Tuesday, March 12 at 7:00 PM Tickets: $15 in advance - $20 at door California, the land of Disneyland, movie stars, freeways, and the ocean, was for some 300 years (from Cabrillo’s time in 1542 to the end of the Mexican War in 1848) part of the Spanish world. Although Cabrillo and other Spanish mariners sailed along its coast as far back as the 1500s, its first Spanish settlement didn’t come until 1769 with the establishment of presidios at San Diego and Monterey, and in the following year of 1770 with the estab- lishment of the mission at San Diego, which would be the first of that whole string of California missions along El Camino Real. Jack will tell us all about those missions, their importance to the development of California, their treatment of the Indians, and the effect of their secularization; as well as the founding of San Fran- cisco in 1776 by a Tucson boy, the Bear Revolt, the discovery of Gold at Sutter’s Mill, its importance in the Civil War and more.

  • Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers' Mike Campbell
    Mike & Marcie Campbell Tom Petty and The Heartbreakers Mike Campbell and Wife Marcie ‘Won’t Back Down for the Animals’ By Melissa Maroff If life mirrors song, Mike Campbell “got lucky babe” when he found his wife Marcie. Before he went on to fame as lead guitarist for one of the world’s greatest rock bands, Tom Petty and The Heartbreakers, Mike met Marcie -- literally because of a dog. It was in 1974 at an LA Halloween party where Marcie brought her dog Medena; Mike mistakenly called Medena “Daisy,” the name of the host’s dog. Marcie had to set him straight -- and the rest as they say, is rock and roll history. “I connected with the dog and then found out the dog came with her,” Mike says. “If it weren’t for the dog, we probably wouldn’t have met.” And for two dog lovers it was “something very good from the get go,” they admit. After 34 years of marriage, the love is still strong, which is evident the minute you see them together. They compliment each other; both have a sense of humor, don’t take themselves too seriously and love their family, which extends to their animal family -- and other animals as well. Mike Campbell has a resume that speaks for itself. In addition to playing on and co- producing Tom Petty and The Heatbreakers albums and co-writing some of their biggest hits, he has also co-penned other classics like Stop Draggin’ My Heart Around (Petty’s duet with Stevie Nicks) and Don Henley’s iconic Boys of Summer, which ranks among Rolling Stone’s 500 Greatest Songs of All Time.
