The Sixties Show
Presented by Cincinnati Arts Association at Procter & Gamble Hall at the Aronoff Center Cincinnati, OH
The Sixties Show from New York City is hailed as “The Greatest 1960s Musical Re-Creation Show on Earth!” This popular, award-winning off-Broadway production is a high-energy, multimedia, immersive experience that transports audiences back to the 1960s through a live, note-for-note re-creation concert. The cast features current and former band members of The Who, The Rascals, and John Fogerty's Creedence Clearwater Revival. This cross-generational crowd-pleaser has been selling out theaters and performing arts centers across the country. The band is widely celebrated for its spot-on, note-for-note performances of iconic hits, B-sides, and deep album cuts from some of the greatest songs of the 1960s. More than just a concert, this high-energy production is a large-scale, ambitious, multimedia stage experience. It is enhanced by time-travel-themed special effects, narration, authentic ’60s archival audio and newsreel footage, and a dynamic light show. This must-see, larger-than-life production is nothing short of awe-inspiring. The band utilizes a state-of-the-art sound system while performing exclusively on authentic 1960s-era vintage and reissue instruments – just like the original artists and recordings. Combined with genuine 1960s mod costumes, this attention to detail adds to the authenticity and impact of the performance. All music is performed live, with no samples, backing tracks, or prerecorded elements of any kind. "An astonishing achievement – The Sixties Show delivers an unforgettable hit of pure musical and storytelling brilliance!” “The music soars, the visuals dazzle, and the crowd can’t stop cheering – this Is a show for the ages!!” “A gorgeous collision of theater and rock ‘n’…

Brantley Gilbert: Real American Tour
Presented by PNC Pavilion at PNC Pavilion Cincinnati, OH
As he readies the release of his eighth studio album SINS OF THE FATHER for Friday, July 24, multi-Platinum trailblazer Brantley Gilbert announces additional tour stops, extending his headlining Real American Tour. With direct support from John Morgan and Atlus, the newly announced dates include a stop in Cincinnati, OH for a performance at PNC Pavilion on Friday, October 16. On Father’s Day, Gilbert released two new tracks from his forthcoming album: title track “SINS OF THE FATHER” and “GOOD OL’ BOYS,” which followed lead single “GOOD DAMN,” currently climbing the charts at Country radio, and the deeply personal “F****D ME UP,” with MusicRow praising, “his gripping, broken vocal on this ballad grabs ahold and doesn’t let go…it’s a powerful thing.” No stranger to pushing country’s evolutionary curve, SINS OF THE FATHER goes beyond sonic innovation, to confront the ugly truth. Fusing heartfelt country values with explosive energy and barbed-wire R&B swagger, he describes the project as a deeply personal playlist, once again ready to meet fans where they are. “As long as there’s a box in country music, I know where I belong,” the Georgia-born hitmaker says. “And that’s right on the outside of it. All of my albums are a chapter of my life and this one’s no different. I don’t have skeletons in the closet – my shit’s out in the open. So if there’s any piece of my story that could help somebody, I’m cheating them if I keep it to myself.” Co-produced with rock-schooled collaborator…

Within a year, he had added appearances on The Late Late Show with Craig Ferguson, AXS TV’s Gotham Comedy Live, and Comics Unleashed with Byron Allen.

He has made multiple appearances on Jeff Foxworthy's podcast, "A Comic Mind", was named one of the year's best by the New York Post, and can be heard every day on SiriusXM Satellite Radio.

Each week we bring you hilarious stand-up comedians, intimate concerts, unique theater productions, live podcast recordings, and so much more.
