Community Education kicks off concert series with The Neverly Brothers Oct. 17
The District 214 Community Education's first-ever concert series will kick off this Saturday, October 17, with the "rock n' roll evolution" concert of The Neverly Brothers at 3 p.m.
The Neverly Brothers will play all-time favorite hits from 1950s American rockabilly, rock and roll, and rhythm and blues to the 1964 British Invasion. They will be dressed in period-perfect matching suits from each era and will play show-stopping renditions of the classic tunes.
"The concert promises to make you feel like you are witnessing rock history unfold before your very eyes," says Kegham (Keg) Giragosian of The Neverly Brothers.
The concert series continues Sunday, November 22 with the World Stage Series featuring A Greek Celebration: Rythmos. Enjoy traditional as well as contemporary Greek music from the band that's considered the new force in Chicago's music entertainment. The music of Rythmos will allow you to find or channel your kefi which in Greek is a way of experiencing something positive or defined as the spirit of joy, enthusiasm, passion or high spirits.
Elvis is in the Building, the third concert scheduled on February 27, 2016, will bring to life two Elvis performers. For the price of one, enjoy a young and a young-at-heart Elvis and relive the music of the one and only king of rock and roll!
Two more concerts: South America, Ole! on May 28, 2016 and Letters from Home, featuring America's Bombshell Duo (Erinn Diaz & Serah Haley) on June 26, 2016, will wrap up the concert series next year.
