With his new single Together out today, Jim Brickman will deliver his distinctive piano style in multiple performances this weekend. The first of his “Share the Love, LIVE Virtually shows takes place tonight followed by two evening concerts Saturday and another pair on Sunday. The Ohio native will donate a portion of ticket sales to various small venues around the country, including CAPA s Southern Theatre. The struggle they are going through is a devastating situation, Brickman said of performance venues and the COVID-19 pandemic. The arts are such an important part of the fabric of the community. The theatre takes the chance on bringing me in. They are so supportive of me and give me a platform on their stage. I feel like it s a responsibility. It s a gesture. They won t make a million dollars but it s something they can provide to their followers and community patrons. So, it s appropriate at this point in my career.

New Mexico ranks almost at the bottom in poverty (49th) in the US and the Navajo and other Native American lands have long been short of basic health, jobs and education services- so the impact of Covid on these folks has been devastating.
“How in the world are they going to fit all these folks into one show? We’ll see.
Mutual appreciation
“Now for some folks my connection to these musicians might seem a little odd – we don’t exactly make the same kind of music – but I sense there exists some mutual appreciation – it’s certainly there from my end.
