Community concerts revving up for 39th season

A membership drive is currently underway for the 2024-2025 season of the Livingston Community Concert Association which features an exciting lineup that includes Legacy: Motown & More; Good Shot Judy presents “The Century of Swing;” Southeast Texas Swing Band; Shake, Rattle & Roll; and SixtiesMania.

The 39th season will kick off at 7:30 p.m. Sept. 19 with Legacy: Motown & More, an international male vocal group hailing from New York City that boasts members from Broadway’s acclaimed production, “Motown The Musical.” These remarkable entertainers deliver show-stopping performances featuring iconic concert hits spanning from the Beatles to Bruno Mars and everything in between. Their signature show, “Motown & More,” invites audiences on a high-energy musical journey through the decades, offering something for everyone.

The second show, Good Shot Judy presents “The Century of Swing,” is Oct. 16. Grounded in the swinging cadence of the Big Band Era, Good Shot Judy is fueled by the Golden Age of 1930s Jazz music. This high-energy band brings melodic muscle to every show and offers a performance that has one foot in the past and one in the here and now. Their show “The Century of Swing” features smooth standards like “Beyond The Sea,” “You Make Me Feel So Young,” “Fly Me To The Moon,” “Feeling Good,” and more.

The Southeast Texas Swing Band will perform at 7:30 p.m. on Dec. 5, performing all of your favorite Christmas tunes, Swing Band Style, to usher in the Christmas season. The guest vocalist will be Angie Garner.

Shake, Rattle & Roll is slated for Feb. 27. Step back in time and immerse yourself in the electrifying energy of the 1950s with Shake, Rattle & Roll. This show transports audiences to the era when Elvis Presley, Connie Francis and Chuck Berry ruled the airwaves and features authentic costumes, vibrant choreography, and malt shop hits like “Johnny B. Goode,” “Great Balls of Fire,” “Rock Around The Clock,” and more.

Tap your feet, shake your hips and celebrate the Golden Age of Rock n’ Roll. Rounding out the season will be SixtiesMania on April 22. One of the leading ‘60s tribute bands in the U.S., SixtiesMania covers everything from the Beatles to the music of Woodstock, and everything in between. With authentic tailored suits from England, vintage instruments and incredible musicianship, this group takes audiences on a musical rollercoaster ride through the 1960s. Audiences will be on their feet dancing and singing along with the biggest hits from superstars like the Beatles, the Beach Boys, the Rolling Stones, the British Invasion and more.
