in Clearwater

Dave Koz Christmas Tour at Ruth Eckerd Hall

Dave Koz Christmas Tour

Celebrate Christmas in style with smooth jazz aficionado Dave Koz! Although he's Jewish, Koz loves the festive season and all the trimmings that come with it, so much so that he released a Yuletide album entitled "The 25th Of December" in 2014. The classy compilation features contemporary covers of classics and carols like The First Noel and Let It, Snow!

Bonnie Raitt at Ruth Eckerd Hall

Bonnie Raitt

Singer/guitarist Bonnie Raitt did not begin to win the comparable commercial success due her until the release of the aptly titled 1989 blockbuster Nick of Time. Her tenth album, it rocketed her into the mainstream consciousness nearly two decades after she first committed her unique blend of blues, rock, and R&B to vinyl. More than just a best-selling artist, respected guitarist, expressive singer, and accomplished songwriter, Bonnie Raitt has become an institution in pop rock music with 16 albums and nine Grammy Awards.

Big Bad Voodoo Daddy at Capitol Theatre

Big Bad Voodoo Daddy

Journey back to the golden era of swing with Big Bad Voodoo Daddy. Theirs is a world populated by sharp-suited mobsters and high-class dames, and it's an impossibly cool sound which has seen the band's popularity just keep on rising in the three decades since forming in California in 1989. Their catchy name comes from a meeting vocalist and guitarist Scotty Morris had with blues legend Albert Collins, who signed an autograph from 'The Big Bad VooDoo Daddy'!

Beat - King Crimson Tribute at Ruth Eckerd Hall
