LIVE STREAM
This top-notch group of musicians has already rocked onstage with John Oates, Eddie Money (RIP), and both versions of the band Player. They’ve trademarked the term “yacht rock,” both metaphorically and literally (U.S. Registration Number 3834195). From humble beginnings in a basement, touring in partnership with Live Nation and Sirius XM, they now headline sold-out shows across the country.
Music of David Bowie W/ Atlanta Symphony Orchestra
On October 25, The Music of David Bowie will join Conductor Brent Havens, vocalist Tony Vincent, the Atlanta Symphony Orchestra and a full rock band for a symphonic musical odyssey. This concert will explore the incredible range of David Bowie's music including the hits "Space Oddity," "Changes," "Under Pressure," "Heroes," "Rebel Rebel," "Fame," "China Girl" and more!
David Bowie's unique life and musical sensibilities provide a wide range of different sounds and elements that's quite different from what Windborne has done in the past. Bowie's influence abounds within not only the rock community, such as his work with Queen and John Lennon, but also crosses into multiple genres including his work with Pat Metheny or his contribution to a soundtrack with Giorgio Moroder. That introduces a whole new set of challenges and opportunities for Windborne to stage a show that's unique in it's own right but stays within the confines of what we are known for as a presenter.
Americana string band Old Crow Medicine Show bring their folk melodies to Alpharetta on October 26. Old Crow Medicine Show started busking on street corners in 1998 New York state and up through Canada, winning audiences along the way with their boundless energy and spirit. It’s been over twenty years since these humble beginnings. The band has gone on to receive the honor of being inducted as members of the Grand Ole Opry, and have won two Grammy Awards: “Best Folk Album” for Remedy (2014) and “Best Long Form Music Video” for Big Easy Express (2013). Additionally, their classic single, “Wagon Wheel”, received the RIAA’s Double-Platinum certification in 2019 for selling over 2,000,000 copies while the band’s debut album O.C.M.S. has been certified Gold (500,000 copies).
