OPENING ACT ~ JAKE WILDHORN

Join us in the lobby at 7:15pm for a free beer tasting before the show!A powerhouse siren with impressive writing chops to match her towering vocals, Porter (who attended high school in CT) won Season 10 of NBCs The Voice. Born to a Broadway singer mom and rocker dad, she went from wowing America on Star Search at the age of five to starring in the John Hughes 1991 classic Curly Sue. Post-high school, she logged time on Broadway, starring in the first production of Footloose and revival of A Chorus Line. She fronted The Canyons and released two solo albums, namely 2009s Alisan Porter and Who We Are in 2014. During a 2016 respite from music, a friend secretly submitted her to NBCs The Voice. Emerging triumphantly, she made history on the show becoming the first victor for a female coach repping Team Christina Aguilera. Exercising the limits of her robust voice, she conjures a style steeped in booming gospel, soulful blues, and rock n roll energy.Porters newest album, Pink Cloud is the bible of everything Ive done. says Porter, it has all accumulated to this moment. Its about truly understanding what it means to be in a partnership, but also really knowing who you are within a relationship.Bandsintown Emerging Artist SeriesPepsi Rock Series powered by Xfinity
