Enjoy some of the most memorable songs of the 70s in Close to You: The Music of the Carpenters, the Decade Tour at Metropolis Performing Arts Centre April 8, 2022.
Considered one of the best vocalists of all time, Karen Carpenter captured the attention of a generation with the surprisingly deep material of her unabashedly catchy pop music. Singer and playwright Lisa Rock has compiled a moving tribute to the music and life of Carpenter, and brings it to the stage with her 6-piece backing band. Dedicated to re-creating the true sound of The Carpenters, Rock and her band showcase some of the most memorable songs of the 70s including "We've Only Just Begun," "Rainy Days and Mondays," and of course "Close to You." Close to You: The Music of The Carpenters debuted at Metropolis Performing Arts Center in 2010. They have played nearly 400 shows in 40 different states in their 11+ years of touring.
