Celebrate the Holiday Season with Rock and Roll Hall of Famer Darlene Love when she returns to The Ridgefield Playhouse onSunday, December 18 at 8 p.m. Love's classics and holiday songs are all delivered with her signature dynamic vocal delivery that theNew York Times has hailed as 'a thunderbolt voice embedded in the history of rock n' roll…' and Rolling Stone has called 'a rare instrument sturdy enough to vault over Phil Spector's 'Wall of Sound.' She returns as part of the Ridgefield Magazine Broadway and Cabaret Series after sold-out performances in 2014 and 2015. From her first No. 1 recording, "He's A Rebel," through her string of hits with the legendary "Wall of Sound" hit factory ("Da Doo Ron Ron," "He's Sure The Boy I'm Gonna Marry" and "Christmas Baby Please Come Home"), to the countless songs she sang backup on for artists like Sam Cooke, Elvis Presley, Dionne Warwick, Cher and Aretha Franklin, Darlene Love is still blazing a trail of success in the music industry! It's the perfect event for dinner and a show - visit Bernard's (20 West Lane, Ridgefield) on the day of the show for a great Prix Fixe Menu when you present your tickets to this performance - Reservations suggested. The show is partially underwritten by Adam Broderick Salon & Spa with media sponsor is WEBE 108fm.
Jarrod Spector began performing at three years old. A film of his singing 'Toot, Toot, Tootsie' with emphatic gestures shows the talented artist preternaturally polished. We're then treated to a clip from Ed McMahon's Star Search in which the six-year-old, pint-sized pretender performs Bertolt Brecht/Kurt Weill's 'Mack the Knife.' His parents, he explains, favored Bobby Darin to the extent that they overlooked the song's subject was 'a serial killer.' Tonight's version is brass-centric, Las Vegas swing. JUKEBOX LIFE, presented at Feinstein's 54/Below, is the most recent iteration in a series of biographical shows. ('Time to move on.') It adds Spector's marriage and his role as songwriter Barry Mann in the Carole King musical BEAUTIFUL to that of playing Frankie Valli in JERSEY BOYS and early aspirations. (Interestingly, he was unaware of both the men into whose shoes he has stepped.) Its title was inspired by a fan who asked, 'What's it like to have this incredible jukebox life?'
