Celebrating its 50th Anniversary, Tower Of Power melds jazz, funk, rock and soul in a way no group ever has. They are one of those rare bands who can claim to be the real deal, 100 proof, aged-to-perfection, ground zero Soul. Over the years, the Tower of Power horns have recorded with hundreds of artists as diverse as Aerosmith, Elton John, Little Feat, Phish, Santana, Heart, and many others. It seems "What Is Hip?" "Soul Vaccination," and "So Very Hard To Go" are no longer oldies. They're now timeless. The truest testament to Tower Of Power remains the bands formidable concert appearances. Each year Tower of Power plays to sold out crowds all over the world remaining true to itself and to its soul music roots. Always in demand, the band never fails to entertain and amaze their fans. New generations of fans come to see the band perform as their music continues to excite fans of all ages. For over 45 years, the band members let loose with an energy-filled show that leaves the crowd on its feet, dancing in the aisles, and applauding for a band that is truly loved.

Produced by Brevard Music GroupContemporary jazz icons, Spyro Gyra shows no sign of slowing down. Over the last 40+ years, they have performed over five thousand shows, released thirty-one albums (not counting "Best Of..." compilations) selling over ten million albums while also achieving one platinum and two gold albums. Although few acts have accomplished this type of record, they have done it by constantly challenging themselves as is evidenced by their last studio release "The Rhinebeck Sessions," which was written and recorded over three days in the studio. Their latest release, "The Best Of The Heads Up Years," serves as an ideal touchstone for the newcomer to the Spyro Gyra experience as well as the long-time fan. Since the 1970s, the band has built an enormous following via their rare blend of virtuosity, stylistic range and accessibility - not to mention their tireless commitment to touring on virtually every continent on the planet. A wonderful concert to see in the intimate setting of the Studio Theatre. Tickets for this show are also available at www.BrevardMusicGroup.com.
