More For Your Money
Monday, June 29 at 7 pm
An award-winning group from the Chicago a cappella scene. This quartet will croon out oldies you know and love and take on the tunes of today’s generation with equal class and style. With a driving rhythm/bass section, rockin’ leads and amazing arrangements, you just have to experience to believe! Using nothing but their four voices and mikes they sound like a full band, performing hits from top artists of today and yesteryear.
Jazz Spectrum
Monday, July 13 at 7 pm
Swinging instrumental jazz and big band sound you’re sure to enjoy. This popular vocal and instrumental ensemble has performed throughout Illinois and Wisconsin and pays tribute to some of the most popular groups from the 40’s and 50’s as well as more current groups, including The Manhattan Transfer. Lush ballads and swinging renditions of big band music. The group has released several CDs to date. Come swing the night away!
Morning Will Break
Monday, July 27 at 7 pm
Get ready to rock the library! Born in Lake County, Illinois, Christian alt/rock band Morning Will Break got their start playing local shows and church worship sets. Their budding talent caught the attention of Austin Cook of Indevo Records, who worked with the group to help them develop the sound they have today. Their next album is scheduled to be released this year. Come and say you saw them when…..
