5/12/2023 | Dynasty Entertainment presents Danny Seraphine and CTA – “California Transit Authority” The Take Me Back to Chicago Tour May 12 7pm Tickets: $39 – $109
DYNASTY ENTERTAINMENT LLC Present “Take Me Back to Chicago Tour” Danny Seraphine and CTA California Transit Authority Dynasty Entertainment LLC and Marion Cultural & Civic Center are proud to announce “The legendary music of Chicago comes alive starring Chicago co-founder and Rock & Roll Hall of Fame inductee Danny Seraphine. The CTA band and their powerful horn section, performs Chicago’s classic hits from the 70’s like 25 or 6 to 4, Feeling Stronger, and Saturday in the Park and also includes the 80’s power ballad era including Hard Habit to Break, You’re the Inspiration, and Look Away. It’s a night of nothing but classic hit music with Danny Seraphine’s, “Take Me Back To Chicago Tour.” Drumming Legend Danny Seraphine, is one of the world’s most highly-respected rock drummers. He was the drummer, percussionist and a founding member of the band Chicago. From 1967 to 1990, Seraphine played on and produced multiple Grammy Award winning records. From the beginning, Danny Seraphine, as the drummer, was always the backbone of the operation. It was his job to keep everyone in time and on balance. He set the pace and carried it through to the end, no matter what. In 1990, after 23 years of performing, composing, and recording albums with Chicago, Seraphine experienced a jarring parting of ways with the bandmates that he considered brothers. The rift threw his life into chaos. Together they had toured the world and created one of the most enduring American songbooks of all time. The iconic group that captured the hearts of millions of fans has earned 23 gold, 18 platinum, and 8 multi-platinum albums to date. They have had five number-one albums and 21 top-ten singles. On April 8, 2016 they were inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame at Barclay’s Center in New York. In the end, it was a request to play a benefit show for a fellow drummer that pulled Seraphine out of seclusion and sparked a musical rebirth. That night, basking in the glow of a standing ovation, Seraphine realized how much he missed performing. Founded in 2006, CTA (California Transit Authority) is led by co-founder and original Chicago drummer Danny Seraphine. Their music is rooted in new arrangements from the extensive Chicago catalogue. Often described as “Chicago on steroids,” Seraphine’s legendary drumming is at the core of CTA’s funk, jazz, and rock material supporting the searing guitars, blazing horns and impassioned vocals. more info... |

5/13/2023 | Dynasty Entertainment presents Suzy Bogguss May 13 7pm Tickets: $35 – $65 Sponsored by River Radio Best Western DYNASTY ENTERTAINMENT LLC Presents An Evening with GRAMMY Award Winner Suzy Bogguss Grammy award-winning and Platinum selling artist Suzy Bogguss is making her first ever appearance to the Marion Cultural & Civic Center. Suzy Bogguss is one of the most acclaimed female country singers of the late ’80s and ’90s, who was able to balance country tradition with a contemporary mainstream sensibility, thereby satisfying both audiences and critics. Suzy is from Aledo, Illinois and began singing in her church choir at age five. Encouraged by her parents, she learned piano and drums as a child, and took up guitar as a teenager. During the creative explosion that was country music in the 1990s Suzy Bogguss sold 4 million plus records with sparkling radio hits like “Outbound Plane”, “Someday Soon”, “Letting Go” and “Drive South”. One of the most diverse female artists in country music, she is a CMA, ACM, and ASCAP Award Winner. She has recorded a duets album with the legendary Chet Atkins, made an album of modern swing music with Ray Benson of Asleep At The Wheel, and landed on the jazz charts with an original album Sweet Danger. In 2004 she became a GRAMMY winner to her list of accolades for her work on Beautiful Dreamer: The Songs of Stephen Foster, and in her critically acclaimed album and book project from 2011, American Folk Songbook. In 2014 she released Lucky, a collection of songs written by Merle Haggard and interpreted through Suzy’s crystal vocals from the female point of view. Her recent offering, Aces Redux, is a re-recording of her platinum selling album Aces produced by Suzy with fresh arrangements and her signature effortless vocals. So yes, you can call her a country singer if you want, but really that’s just the beginning. Since 2017, Suzy has also been touring as one of three “Chicks With Hits”, a show that also features Pam Tillis and Terri Clark. more info... |

5/18/2023 | MCCC Presents Patti LaBelle May 18 7pm Tickets: $69 – $250 Sponsored by WSIL TV and River Radio Patti LaBelle Beautiful, simply does not describe the incomparable force known to the world as Patti LaBelle. As time continues to evolve, the soulful songbird’s name has become synonymous with grace, style, elegance and class. Belting out classic rhythm and blues renditions, pop standards and spiritual sonnets have created the unique platform of versatility that she is known and revered for. It’s a small wonder that Patti has time for anything else in between recording and touring, but she makes time and the world is oh so happy that she does! She has written six books, Don’t Block the Blessings, LaBelle Cuisine: Recipes to Sing About, Patti’s Pearls, Patti LaBelle’s Lite Cuisine, Recipes for the Good Life and Desserts LaBelle. Recently, Patti released a 20th anniversary edition of her New York Times bestselling cookbook, LaBelle Cuisine, featuring three new recipes. Additionally, Patti has been featured in popular films and television programs including A Soldier’s Story, A Different World, American Horror Story, Empire, Star and The Kominsky Method, and starred in her own TV series, Out All Night. She’s also wowed television audiences with unforgettable performances on the hit shows, Dancing with the Stars and The Masked Singer and starred in Broadway productions of Your Arms are Too Short to Box with God, Fela, and After Midnight, In 2007, she introduced Patti’s Good Life, a successful food and lifestyle brand that offers a variety of frozen comfort foods, breakfast items and desserts, including her world-famous sweet potato pie. The Patti’s Good Life brand is available at retailers across the United States including Walmart and Target. Always a person to take on new challenges, in 2017 Patti launched a record label, GPE Records, and released her first jazz album, Bel Hommage. Although she is an award-winning entertainer, author and entrepreneur, Patti’s work as a humanitarian is just as noteworthy. She remains an advocate for adoption, diabetes, cancer, HIV / AIDS and many other causes and non-profit initiatives. While she has reached the heights of success throughout her 60 plus year career, Patti has also endured and survived personal strife. Within a ten-year period, she lost her mother, three sisters and best friend to diabetes and cancer. In 1994, she was diagnosed with diabetes and shortly thereafter became a spokesperson for the American Diabetes Association. The same motivation that had Patricia Louise Holte blossom from a choir member to lead vocalist for Patti LaBelle & The Bluebelles and later Labelle, to a solo artist, is the same energy that keeps her fire burning at seventy-eight years young. “Each year I grow, and that’s a blessing from God. I do what I can do. I do what I feel God has given me the energy to do, so I just go out there and I do it…it’s not about making money because I don’t need money, but I need to sing. With a voice or without, I’ve got to get on that stage.” And the world is thankful that Patti’s voice sounds so good to our ears. more info... |
