Piano Rock Through the Ages with Josh Christina & the Revivals
Join us for the return of Josh Christina and his 7 piece band for Josh Christina and the Revivals present “The Ultimate Piano Rock Show”. A high energy tribute to the musical journey of piano rock and roll, covering everything from Jerry Lee Lewis to Elton John, Ray Charles to Billy Joel and more. Having delivered hundreds, if not thousands, of performances, die-hard fans and newcomers alike can agree that Christina is most certainly doing his audience justice. About Josh Christina & The Ultimate Piano Rock Show YouTube | Facebook Every artist has their influences, but Josh Christina is one of the few who can say he’s won a seal of approval from the peers of his heroes. Christina is living proof that while heroes are remembered, legends never die. Quite literally the last of a dying breed, the piano rock phenomenon is carrying the torch passed down by the genre’s founding fathers; the legacy left behind by pioneers Jerry Lee Lewis, Chuck Berry, Elvis Presley and more will live on through Josh Christina. The piano-wielding front man combines the soul of what was once the most controversial musical movement of its time with his own distinct, magnetic performance style, reaching audiences nationwide and beyond. Making his television debut on Ireland’s Late Late Show, Christina soon recognized the limitless impact of his art. From recording at the iconic Sam Phillips Studio in Memphis, where he played a piano once blessed by the hands of Jerry Lee Lewis himself, Christina has fostered an unparalleled respect for his craft. Through profound tracks like “Old Piano” and “Rockstar,” he pays homage to the ones who made him the artist he is today. And his catalog has no shortage of up-tempo, rhythm and blues tracks, such as “Friend Zone” and “Let’s Get Woke”.Famed pianist and band leader Daryl Davis, whose credits include Chuck Berry, Jerry Lee Lewis, BB King and beyond, said it best when he proclaimed, “in 20th century 1955, it took several young men to create and define Rock ‘n’ Roll. 65 years later and it only takes one young man who embodies all the pioneers to introduce it to the 21st century– that man is Josh Christina.” Tasked by one of the greats with leading a rock n roll revival all his own, Christina takes pride in every note he plays, every word he sings and every moment he spends on stage. While single handedly breathing life back into the origin story of a genre that shaped music for generations to come, Josh Christina allows history to repeat itself, exposing his peers to ‘where it all began.’

A Carole King Christmas with Michelle Foster
A Carole King Christmas is exactly that: a first act of Carole King’s hits, and a female-centric second act of Christmas songs. From All I Want For Christmas Is You, to Merry Christmas Darling, there are songs for every audience member to connect with and sing along to. There is no better place to enjoy the holiday nostalgia than at A Carole King Christmas! About Michelle Foster Website | Instagram | Facebook | Youtube New York-based singer, pianist, actress, and dancer, Michelle Foster has redefined the quadruple threat. Foster has been touring and performing professionally since the age of 14, when she was chosen to perform as a soloist at Disney’s Hollywood Studios for an audience of thousands. Foster is now a regular keyboardist with Gloria Gaynor’s musical director, Mark Baron, and a keyboardist/vocal soloist with legendary doo-wop group, The Duprees. In the summer of 2019, Foster was cast in her first professional musical at Axelrod Performing Arts Center. Months later, however, Foster was selected to perform as vocalist/keyboardist with the Mercury World Tour, produced by Terry Barber, at The Gallo Center for the Arts in Modesto, California. Michelle now tours internationally with Barber as a collaborative pianist and vocal soloist. While performing The Music of Andrew Lloyd Webber in Canada, Michelle “stuck out as a clear talent” (The Palace Theatre). Though Michelle’s first love was always musical theater, her experience performing in Barber’s various tour programs opened her up to a world where her diverse talents could merge. At 23 years old, Michelle self-produced, created and starred in Broadway 2020, an original musical review that showcases her mastery of voice, piano, drama and dance as she takes audiences on a journey through Broadway hits old and new. The show premiered at The Ritz Theatre in 2019 and is currently being booked for the 2021-2022 seasons. The Broadway 2020 album is set to release in the summer of 2020. In addition to touring, Michelle is part-owner of the private music production company, Tunedly. Michelle holds a Bachelor of Science from Fairleigh Dickinson University, with minors in chemistry and dance. She has continued her studies at The Juilliard School, Liz Caplan Vocal Studio, and one-on-one with the most prominent casting and creative directors in New York. “Michelle was amazing and it is clear she is going to have a long career ahead of her.” – Janet Perkins
