Concert: John Sebastian
Time: 8pm.
Grounds For Sculpture is excited to welcome back Rock & Roll Hall of Famer John Sebastian. With a repertoire of pop music classics such as “Summer in the City” and “Did You Ever Have to Make Up Your Mind,” as well as the theme song to Welcome Back Kotter, “Welcome Back”. John is a true folk/rock music original. He first rose to fame as the front man for The Lovin’ Spoonful, scoring ten Top 40 hits before going solo, including his memorable solo appearance at Woodstock in 1969. With more than 40 years of performing and touring behind him, and his induction into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 2000, there’s no slowing John down. Come see why John Sebastian is not only a master musician, writer, and exuberant performer, but one of the best ambassadors American music has.
Price: $25 Members; $30 Non-Members; $30 Day of Show. For tickets, please call (609) 586-0616.
