Tommy Emmanuel (10/24/25) 6:30pm arrival.

We are thrilled to welcome the world renowned guitar player Tommy Emmanuel back to the Music Hall! Tommy has a Grammy Award, multiple ARIA Awards and countless accolades, but nothing means more to Tommy than the three letters Chet Atkins designated at the end of Tommy’s name: C.G.P. The title of Certified Guitar Player was the highest honor Atkins could bestow on another player – a signifier that the recipient had not only mastered the instrument but taken it to new vistas and become a guiding light for the next generation of pickers. Like Tommy, Chet had never gone to a university, and the C.G.P. was his version of a PHD or a Doctorate of the guitar. He gave the honor to Tommy and only five other handpicked players. As a songwriter and a performer, Tommy is a melting pot of influences across genres, form pop to bluegrass and jazz to rock n’ roll. To him, music is rhythm and emotion, all other distinctions are meaningless. Anyone who has seen Tommy play will tell you, the vocalist is there, as is the drummer, the bass player and the rhythm and lead guitarists. In a way that must often be seen to be believed, Tommy plays all the parts of a full band simultaneously, his fingers dancing around the fretboard with a dexterity and speed that would seem impossible if you weren’t witnessing it.

The Mavericks - Moon & Stars Tour (10/31/25) Friday 6:30pm arrival.

We are beyond thrilled to welcome the Mavericks back to the Music Hall for their always amazing Halloween run, this time in support of their new album ‘Moon & Stars’. The Mavericks have always been explorers….For decades, they've created the kind of multicultural Americana that reaches far beyond America itself, blending their favorite stateside sounds — including rock & roll, country, and R&B — with Tex-Mex twang, Cuban rhythms, Jamaican ska, and other Latin influences. The exploration continues with Moon & Stars, a progressive album that finds Raul Malo and company continuing to push the envelope, exploring the outer orbits of an organic, otherworldly sound that remains entirely their own. "This record took us to places we've never gone before," says frontman, co-producer, and chief songwriter Malo, whose voice — a booming baritone that continues to age like top-shelf whiskey and fine leather, becoming richer and more pliable with each album — remains one of the band's calling cards. "It's a collection of tales from the universe. We've traveled around the world, gathering new stories and new sounds, and this is what we have to show for it. Moon & Stars is our cosmic energy put into practice." It's also the sound of a band that refuses to be limited by its own legacy. Three days after receiving the Trailblazer Award at the 2021 Americana Music Honors & Awards, The Mavericks hit the highway once again, resuming the busy touring schedule that's kept the band in sharp shape. Joined by longtime co-producer Niko Bolas, they recorded portions of Moon & Stars while on the road, setting up camp at studios in Santa Fe, New Mexico, and Maurice, Louisiana, before finishing the record at home in Nashville. Tracking sessions were fast and inspired, built around the chemistry of four musical brothers — Malo, guitarist Eddie Perez, keyboardist Jerry Dale McFadden, and drummer Paul Deakin — who've logged thousands of hours onstage together, racking up multiple Grammy, ACM, and CMA Awards along the way. On Moon & Stars’' 11 songs, The Mavericks are larger than life: not only musically, but literally, too, thanks to an expanded roster that features a three-part horn section, an accordionist, and a guest list stocked with powerhouse singers like Nicole Atkins, Maggie Rose, and Sierra Ferrell. Songs like the album's tropical title track prove there's strength in numbers, with Ferrell and Malo piling their voices into thickly-stacked harmonies over a Cuban charanga groove. Rose appears on "Look Around You," an album highlight that splits the difference between timeless country-soul and classic R&B. Saxophonist Max Abrams takes centerstage on "Here You Come Again" to channel the steamy 1980s textures of George Michael's "Careless Whisper," while Atkins adds sauce and swagger to "Live Close By (Visit Often)," a roadhouse roots-rocker whose horn arrangement nods to the influence of Stax Records and Muscle Shoals.

Over her 40-year career Natalie Merchant has earned a reputation for being a songwriter and recording artist of rare quality, a captivating stage performer, and a skilled producer. She has also distinguished herself as a social justice and environmental activist through her work with a wide- variety of non-profit organizations, and by creating documentary films and large-scale community arts projects. Natalie began her musical career as the lead vocalist and lyricist of the pop music band 10,000 Maniacs in 1981 and released two platinum and four gold records with the group. She left the band in 1993 and has subsequently released nine albums as a solo artist with combined sales of seven million copies.

Colin Hay (11/7/25) FRIDAY 6:30PM ARRIVAL.

We are thrilled to welcome Colin Hay back in support of his new album Now and the Evermore. Colin first came to international fame with seminal ’80s hitmakers Men At Work. While the band would reach the heights of stardom—they took home a GRAMMY Award for Best New Artist and sold more than 30 million records worldwide on the strength of #1 singles like “Who Can It Be Now?” and “Down Under”—by 1985, they’d called it quits and gone their separate ways. Hay released his solo debut the following year and, over the course of the next three-and-a-half decades, went on to record twelve more critically acclaimed studio albums that would help establish him as one of his generation’s most hardworking and reliable craftsmen. Rolling Stone praised his “witty, hooky pop” tunes, while NPR’s World Café lauded his “distinctive voice,” and late night hosts from David Letterman and Craig Ferguson to Jimmy Fallon and Jimmy Kimmel have all welcomed him for performances. Over the course of his remarkable solo career, Hay developed a reputation as a gifted raconteur with serious comedy chops, and his frequent appearances at LA’s Largo club helped garner him a legion of fans in the entertainment world.

If you like fast-paced, edgy one-liners then get ready to be happy. Jimmy Carr is going back on tour with his brand-new show ‘Jimmy Carr: Laughs Funny’.

Holiday Fun for the Fam!

Enjoy a classic movie in a classic theatre.

Rolling Stone Magazine has proclaimed Darlene Love to be “one of the greatest singers of all time” and that certainly rings true, but perhaps Paul Shaffer says it even more concisely: “Darlene Love is Rock N’ Roll!” - which was made official when she was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame by Bette Midler, a great fan of her work, in 2011. During the celebration, the two ladies enjoyed performing He’s A Rebel together and as part of the festivities, Darlene also sang He’s A Fine, Fine Boy backed by another distinguished fan, Bruce Springsteen.

Celebrate the Holiday Season with the Glenn Miller Orchestra, featuring Holiday favorites and classics from the Big Band Songbook. The World Famous, Glenn Miller Orchestra, the most popular and sought after big band in the world today for both concert and swing dance engagements.

GREGORIAN: PURE CHANTS WORLD TOUR featuring songs of Enigma (3/1/26) Sunday 5:30pm arrival.

For 25 years, GREGORIAN have thrilled millions of people worldwide with their choreographed shows and their ability to switch seamless from classical chorales to pop and rock songs. Their concerts have set new standards. With over 2,000 shows in 36 countries and more than 11 million albums sold, GREGORIAN are the most successful choir in the world. In Spring 2026, GREGORIAN will continue with their PURE CHANTS World Tour in the USA. Frank Peterson, the creator and producer of GREGORIAN says: “Our Pure Chants concerts bring the most popular GREGORIAN classics in an atmospheric and tranquil sound environment. Pure Chants concerts are extremely peaceful, yet spectacular and unite the audience with the most beautiful melodies in the world.” The idea for GREGORIAN was born when Frank Peterson visited the royal monastery of San Lorenzo de El Escorial in Spain in 1989. Wandering through the medieval monastery and castle complex and listening to contemporary music on his Walkman, he found the inspiration for the sound experiment of mixing ancient Gregorian music with modern music. Peterson first realized his idea with Michael Cretu and the worldwide sound phenomenon "Enigma". Their first album "MCMXC a.D.” was released in 1990 and quickly became a worldwide success. "MCMXC a.D." was number 1 in 41 different countries and went 57 times platinum and 45 times gold. It is considered as the most successful German album of all time worldwide. This gigantic success paved the way for GREGORIAN to take the musical idea one step further and to establish it as an independent music act. In 1999, with the start of production on the first album "Masters Of Chant", Frank Peterson seamlessly built on the success of "Enigma". In the following years, GREGORIAN has sold over 11 million CDs an DVDs worldwide and achieved gold and platinum status in 24 different countries.
