SUMMARY:Joe Jencks in Concert
DESCRIPTION:The Unitarian Universalist Congregation of DeKalb (formerly known as the Unitarian Universalist Fellowship of DeKalb) is proud to announce a special performance by Joe Jencks for a benefit concert at its church at 158 N 4th Street in downtown DeKalb on Friday\, September 13\, 2024. Tickets can be purchased via PayPal at uufdekalb.org/joejenksconcert or you can reserve tickets by emailing the church office at office@uudekalb.org and pay for your tickets at the door. Ticket Price: $20.00 for adults; children under 13 are free. \nJoe Jencks sings with a lyric baritone voice that has the edgy richness of a good sea-salt caramel. A 25-year veteran of the international Folk circuit\, an award-winning songwriter and a celebrated vocalist based in the Chicago area\, Joe delivers engaging musical narratives filled with heart\, soul\, groove\, and grit. Blending well-crafted instrumentals and vivid songwriting\, he is known for his performances of musical beauty\, social consciousness\, and spiritual exploration. Jencks has penned several #1 Folksongs including the ever-relevant Lady of The Harbor. From Carnegie Hall to Lincoln Center to Festivals across the U.S. and Canada\, Jencks has become a fan favorite throughout North America and beyond. \nJoe’s 2017 CD Poets\, Philosophers\, Workers\, and Wanderers earned #1 Artist\, #1 Album\, and #1 Song on the North American Folk DJ Chart as well as spending several weeks at #1 on the SIRIUS XM Americana Chart. In August 2022 Joe released The Coming of the Years – a new album more deeply exploring matters of social justice and his Irish heritage. Blending modern and traditional Celtic instrumentation\, this recording is already receiving critical acclaim in advanced reviews. In addition to his work as a touring performer\, songwriter\, and producer\, Joe also leads songwriting workshops with diverse communities from Military Veterans to School Children. Joe is a dual US-Irish citizen and has served as a Cultural Ambassador with the US State Department. He also received a grant in 2020 from the Archives of American Folk Music at The Library of Congress. \nArtist website: \nhttps://www.joejencks.com

SUMMARY:After-hours: Sarah McQuaid in Concert
DESCRIPTION:“One of the most instantly recognizable voices in current music.” —Trust The Doc \nSarah McQuaid’s lush\, chocolatey voice combines with her engaging personality\, “subtle mastery onstage” (Huffington Post) and “brilliant musicianship” (fRoots) on acoustic and electric guitars\, piano and (occasionally) drum to create a truly immersive experience. \nBorn in Spain\, raised in Chicago\, holding dual Irish and American citizenship\, and now settled in rural England\, she brings the eclecticism of her background to her “captivating\, unorthodox songwriting” (PopMatters) and choice of material\, spanning genres and defying categorization. \nAll this is abundantly demonstrated by her new live album and video series The St. Buryan Sessions — but needs to be savored in person to be fully appreciated. \nThis concert is free and open to all. Doors will open at 6:00 p.m. and music will begin at 6:30 p.m. No registration is required. \nFor additional information\, please contact Samantha at samanthah@dkpl.org or at (815) 756-9568 ext. 1701.

SUMMARY:Tusk at the Egyptian Theatre
DESCRIPTION:Back by popular demand! Tusk is the number one Tribute to Fleetwood Mac in the world\, bar none.

The five seasoned\, well-respected musicians comprising Tusk have been making music together in various combinations and styles\, in original outfits and in cover bands\, for over twenty-five years.

Authentic-sounding and always respectful\, Tusk leaves no stone unturned in replicating the sounds of one of the world’s best-loved\, top-selling bands. \n\n\n\nReserved Ticket Prices $35 / $45 / $55

SUMMARY:Foreigner 4 Ever & Rok Brigade
DESCRIPTION:One night with two extraordinary tribute rock bands! \n\n\n\nForeigner 4 Ever is an American 7-piece rock band formed in 2017 as a tribute to the music of British/American rock band Foreigner and is based out of Milwaukee\, WI. The band is made up of veteran musicians with decades of experience entertaining rock music fans at premier venues\, festivals and concert events.

They wanted to cover their favorite songs from the band’s extensive catalog\, focusing primarily on the first six albums. Def Leppard’s infectious melodies\, heavy guitars\, pounding drums and layered harmonies combine perfectly to give us some of the greatest rock anthems of all time! Reproducing the Def Leppard experience live with great sound\, look and energy is what makes Rok Brigade one of the best Def Leppard tribute bands today. Rock with Rok Brigade!
