Judging from packed audiences when tribute bands perform at DesertView, there is little doubt that SaddleBrookers love music from the past. Mark your calendars for April 3 at 7:30 p.m. for what promises to be a great concert, The Tributaries: The 60s, 70s, and Beyond. Many of you have heard The Tributaries, either at DesertView or at the Oro Valley Gaslight Theatre, so you know how talented they are. Their music is very authentic, and as they pay homage to the bands and artists they are showcasing, they share interesting bits of trivia about the songs and the artists.
You may have heard this group perform Woodstock, the Eagles, CSNY, or Simon and Garfunkel. They also do a Linda Ronstadt tribute, Super Songs of the 60s, a 70s singer/songwriter show, and a fabulous new show, Good Morning Vietnam. In this new concert, which is a fundraiser for the Oracle Schools Foundation, they will perform a medley of songs from their various shows, so even if you have seen one or more of their performances, this will be an entirely different experience that you won’t want to miss! Tickets are on sale at the DesertView Performing Arts Center. You can buy them in person at the SaddleBrooke TWO administration building, order online at the website, or call 520-818-1000, Ext. 4.
The mission of the Oracle Schools Foundation is to provide financial and related support to ensure that every Oracle student has unlimited opportunities to succeed. By attending the concert, you will not only hear great music, but you will be helping the foundation raise money for a very worthy cause.
