Micky Dolenz
FRIDAY, AUGUST 4, 8 P.M.; SATURDAY, AUGUST 5, 7 P.M.
TICKETS: $42.50 - $80

In 1965 Micky Dolenz was cast in the television sitcom "The Monkees" along with Davy Jones, Michael Nesmith and Peter Tork and became the drummer and vocalist in the "imaginary" band that wanted to be The Beatles but that was never successful. The actor/musicians; however, soon became a real band. Dolenz wrote a few of the group's self-pinned songs as well as providing lead vocals for such hits as "Last Train to Clarksville," "Take a Giant Step," "Pleasant Valley Sunday," "Daydream Believer," and "I'm a Believer" giving The Monkees their distinctive sound. Although the sitcom was cancelled in 1968, the band continued to record until 1971.

The Monkees have sold more than 75 million records worldwide and, at their peak in 1967 beat the sales of the Beatles and Rolling Stones combined.

John Lloyd Young
THURSDAY, AUGUST 10, 8 P.M.; FRIDAY, AUGUST 11, 8 P.M.; SATURDAY, AUGUST 12, 7 P.M.

Best known for his 2006 Tony Award winning performance as Frankie Valli in the Tony Award-winning musical Jersey Boys that chronicles the formation, success and eventual breakup of 1960s rock 'n roll group The Four Seasons. John Lloyd Young also reprised the role in London's West End and for director Clint Eastwood's film adaptation that was released in 2014. Young is a Sacramento native and returns to Feinstein's at the Nikko after three previous sold out engagements to continue to celebrate the music of the era including songs from the hit show as well as his own CD "My Turn."

Grammy Award-winning and gold and platinum-selling duo, Marilyn McCoo and Billy Davis, Jr., will celebrate their multifaceted 45-year career in a show that includes R&B, gospel, jazz, blues and pop.

After leaving the group, Marilyn and Billy recorded "You Don't Have to be a Star," a chart topping #1 record which earned them their seventh Grammy Award and a television series on CBS.

WILLIAM FLORIAN
THURSDAY, AUGUST 24, 8 P.M.
TICKETS: $17.50 - $40

An upbeat, energetic musical journey of America's greatest folk and pop songs of the 1960s including "Where Have all the Flowers Gone," "Blowin' in the Wind," "Leavin' on a Jet Plane," "If I had a Hammer," "California Dreamin" as well as "This Land is Your Land" and other hits William performed as lead singer of the 1960s folk music group The New Christy Minstrels.

HAIR IN CONCERT
FRIDAY, AUGUST 25, 8 P.M.; SATURDAY, AUGUST 26, 7 P.M.
TICKETS: $30 - $55

A tribe of the best and brightest young Bay Area musical theatre artists convey the story of friends Claude and Berger, their roommate Sheila and the group of hippies with whom they rebel against the Vietnam War through the familiar score of songs including "Aquarius," "Manchester England," "Hair," "Easy to be Hard," "Where Do I Go," "Black Boys, White Boys" "Good Morning Starshine" and "Let the Sunshine In." The bohemian lifestyle of the characters included racial integration, sexual freedom, drug use and the mockery of religion which were certainly controversial themes when Hair debuted Off-Broadway in 1967 and on Broadway in 1968. The concert presentation will include stories from this time as well as later notable productions and an exploration of the legacy of this enduring musical.
