If you are ready to see some live music this year, you’re in luck. With mask mandates lifting and many things returning to normal, live shows are making a comeback.
The Appell Center for the Performing Arts has announced its first shows in the 2021-2022 Strand Theatre season.
“This initial list focuses on what our audiences love best – and need the most – live music and comedy”, said Todd Fogdall, president and CEO of the Appell Center.
Fogdall said that the center has offered limited-capacity shows during the past year, and its last live show was on April 30.
Tickets start at $38.25. Call 727-791-7400 or visit www.rutheckerdhall.com.
Started by Bradlee in 2009, Postmodern Jukebox bends time by reworking modern hits into vintage genres, especially early 20th century forms such as swing and jazz. They put out a new video on YouTube each week to their 4.3 million subscribers, most of which are filmed casually in Bradlee s living room. With over 1.3 billion YouTube views and more than 2.4 million Facebook fans, the band has covered songs by artists ranging from Lady Gaga to the White Stripes. Since their beginnings as a small group of friends making music in a basement in Queens, New York, Postmodern Jukebox has gone on to feature 70 different performers and tour six continents.

The celestial celebration will add to our popular lantern festival tradition but will also include moon cakes and moon poetry.
