Frankie Valli Will Bring All of His Classic Hits to Life When He and the Four Seasons Come to the Chumash Casino Contact: Caitlyn Baker [email protected] (805) 944-7780 (c) (805) 350-7913 (o) FRANKIE VALLI & THE FOUR SEASONS TO PERFORM AT CHUMASH CASINO RESORT SANTA YNEZ, CA – September 16, 2019 – Frankie Valli will bring all of his classic hits to life when he and The Four Seasons come to the Chumash Casino Resort’s Samala Showroom for an unforgettable performance at 8 p.m. on Friday, October 11, 2019. Tickets for the show are $69, $74, $79, $89 & $99. As the inspiration for the critically acclaimed Broadway musical, “Jersey Boys,” it’s no surprise Frankie Valli and The Four Seasons were inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 1990. They are one of the best-selling musical groups of all time, having sold an estimated 100 million records worldwide. Valli was born Francesco Stephen Castelluccio in Newark, New Jersey. From a young age, he was influenced by jazz, doo-wop and soul, along with artists like The Drifters, Rose Murphy and Frank Sinatra. He would listen to some of his favorite singers on record at home and then practice what he’d heard. Realizing he needed a stage name, he changed Castelluccio to “Valley” and eventually “Valli,” after friend and country singer Texas Jean Valli. In 1961, The Four Seasons was formed with Valli on lead vocals. Other original members included Bob Gaudio, Tommy DeVito and Nick Massi. The group achieved commercial success in 1962 with their single “Sherry,” which landed at No. 1 on the Billboard pop and R&B charts. The group’s next two singles, “Big Girls Don’t Cry” and “Walk Like a Man,” were also No. 1 hits. The group went on to become one of the biggest pop acts of the 1960s with more than two dozen Top 40 hits during the decade. The hits included tracks “Candy Girl,” “Dawn (Go Away),” “Rag Doll,” “Working My Way Back to You” and “Opus 17 (Don’t You Worry About Me).” Don’t miss an opportunity to see these hits performed live in one of the most popular music venues in Santa Barbara County. Located on Highway 246 in Santa Ynez, California, the Chumash Casino Resort is an age 21-and-older venue. Tickets for all events are available at The CLUB at Chumash or online at www.chumashcasino.com. .

  • The Jean Thomas Story—Part 3
    The Jean Thomas Story—Part 3 Jean Thomas worked with many top producers during the 1960s but the one who cre- ated her best known work and who perhaps brought the best out of her vocal talent was Bob Crewe. Bob Crewe had a special talent himself and was a highly respected producer Jean’s good friend Ellie Greenwich had a good relation- ship with Bob Crewe and commented on his ability and on how they first met in an interview before her untimely passing in 2009….. "I'm not exactly sure when I met Bob Crewe, but we always saw each other around the business from the very beginning. (We) had an affinity for each other (and) still do! He was a joy to work with on all levels . he's a perfectionist, he's open to any outside ideas, he really knows what he wants and gets it, and most of all, he is passionate about what he does. He puts all of himself into eve- rything he touches . I always loved and still do love Bob! I can go on and on about this talented gentleman, and he is just that: A 'gentle man'." Mick Patrick and Malcolm Baumgart captured the best of Bob Crewe’s productions on “The DynoVoice Story….the label that had to happen” Westside CD226 and say of his unique- ness …..“Bob Crewe is not a man to be easily pigeon-holed. Possessed by an overriding creative urge from his earliest years, he has painted , worked as a photographic model, sculpted, acted,run an art gallery and dabbled in interior design alongside those talents for which he is justly renowned – ie singer, songwriter, producer, label owner, music publisher and manager.” The best of his productions of course include those of Jean Tho- mas.
