SUMMARY:Trans-Siberian Orchestra-The Lost Christmas Eve
DESCRIPTION:Trans-Siberian Orchestra (TSO) is a progressive rock band founded as an outlet for the many rock operas late rock industry veteran\, producer\, composer\, and musician Paul O’Neill was writing. \nTSO was created to push the boundaries of what was possible for a band to create – both musically and visually. Paul O’Neill dreamed of a different kind of “band” that is not limited by the confines of traditional rock acts and instead established one with multiple singers who could inhabit the various characters he was writing into his rock operas. \nAlthough TSO is best known for their Capra-esque trilogy of holiday records – Christmas Eve & Other Stories\, The Christmas Attic\, and The Lost Christmas Eve – they have also released several other rock operas. Beethoven’s Last Night (2000) was the first of these non-holiday rock operas and tells a compelling tale of a battle for Beethoven’s soul between good and evil. It features instrumental crossovers between classical composers and contemporary rock\, along with original vocal tracks featuring Patti Russo (Meatloaf) as the character Teresa\, Beethoven’s love. Later albums take on great themes such as war and redemption\, namely Night Castle (2009). Night Castle was TSO’s first Top 5 album debut and included a bonus track featuring Greg Lake (Emerson\, Lake & Palmer\, King Crimson)\, who was one of TSO’s greatest influences. Letters From The Labyrinth (2015) was another Top 10 release for TSO. In total\, TSO has sold in excess of 12 million albums and DVDs. \nConsistently one of the Top 25 touring acts in the country\, TSO shows no signs of slowing down. Since its touring debut in 1999\, TSO has played over 2\,000 Winter Tour shows for more than 18 million fans. So far TSO has also donated over $18 million from these tours to local charities. \nAt the time of his passing\, O’Neill had several TSO projects in various stages of completion at his recording studio in Florida. He also had two finalized rock operas: Romanov: When Kings Must Whisper\, about the 1917 Russian Revolution\, along with a live concert adaptation of Night Castle. O’Neill also planned to eventually bring the TSO experience to Broadway. Nearly 25 years after the release of their first album\, Trans-Siberian Orchestra continues to create and live on.

SUMMARY:The Blues Is Alright Tour
DESCRIPTION:ABOUT KING GEORGE\nBursting onto the Southern Soul scene with his signature party-centric sound filled with R&B flair\, King George has quickly become a fan-favorite. Based out of Hopkins\, South Carolina\, King George exploded on the Southern Soul scene and rose quickly to headliner status on The Blues Is Alright Tour this past Spring 2023. His highly anticipated album\, Juke Joint Music was released in 2022 after launching onto the music scene via YouTube in 2020. For old-school music lovers\, King George’s music is the perfect combination of R&B\, soul and funk that is sure to get anyone to do a little two-step. With his rich tone and satin-smooth vocals\, his songs\, “Keep on Rollin\,” “Too Long\,” “Friday Night” and “Leave & Party” are his top hits. There can only be one king: King George. For more information on King George\, visit www.803kinggeorge.com and follow @King George on Facebook and @803kinggeorge on Instagram. \n  \nABOUT TUCKA\nEqually influenced by R. Kelly and Barry White\, Louisiana’s Tucka James is an R&B singer who can deliver “pillow talk” songs that recall the grooves of the ‘70s\, ‘80s and 2010’s. He kicked off his career in 2007\, singing lead vocals with Keith Frank & the Soileau Zydeco Band. He introduced his solo career in 2008\, along with his nickname “the King of Swing.” He soon became a regional Louisiana favorite and opened gigs for Mystikal and Lenny Williams. His Love Rehab album landed in 2009 with songs like “Sex on My Mind” and “Myspace Love.” Forever King followed in 2011\, then in 2015 he released Love Rehab 2. For more information on Tucka\, visit www.tuckajames.com and follow @TUCKA on Facebook and @tuckakingofswing on Instagram. \n  \nABOUT POKEY BEAR\nWardell “Pokey Bear” Brown was born on February 2\, 1970 in Baton Rouge\, Louisiana. He is known for his soulful sound of music in the Blues/Southern Soul genre; however\, he did not start out that way. Pokey Bear began his career as a rap music artist\, but after doing it for a while decided to try other styles. His venture off into other styles of music would lead him to be the soulful singer that he is today. He was first recognized in music for his first two projects produced by Beat Flippa. Particularly his songs entitled “They Call me Pokey” and “Side Piece\,” The song “Side Piece” happened as a result of a hook that was written by Heavy in which he asked Pokey to write lyrics to. He has worked with artists such as Tyree Neal\, Adrian Bagher\, Ms. Pat\, Veronica Raelle and Cupid. For more information on Pokey Bear\, follow @Big Pokey Bear-JSP on Facebook and @bigpokeybearjsp on Instagram. \n  \nABOUT THEODIS EALEY\nBlues guitarist\, vocalist\, songwriter\, producer and entertainer are just a few of the titles that describe the phenomenon of Theodis Ealey. This Mississippi native first picked up an instrument when his older brother\, “Y” “Z” Ealey first taught him how to play at the age of four. Ichiban Records\, a respected blues label in Atlanta\, recognized Theodis’ multiple talents and immediately signed him to a deal in 1991. Over the next six years\, Theodis and Ichiban Records would enjoy four very successful albums. The “Bluesman Lover” made lemonade out of lemons when Ichiban Records eventually closed its doors. Seizing the moment\, Theodis Ealey used this opportunity to create his new label home\, IFGAM Records.

The more than one billion streams between “Higher\,” “My Sacrifice\,” “One Last Breath\,” “With Arms Wide Open\,” and “My Own Prison” on Spotify alone is a testament to the band’s enduring power. Nearly 30 years after CREED’s formation\, the ubiquitous anthems composed by singer Scott Stapp and guitarist Mark Tremonti\, performed for millions of fans around the world together with drummer Scott Phillips and bassist Brian Marshall\, are part of modern rock and alternative’s DNA. \n  \nMy Own Prison (1997) is one of the late 20th century’s biggest debuts.
