Let the Concerts Begin
Issue: 2016/06 - June
It’s the return of The King when the Highlands Performing Arts Center launches its 2016 Concert Season Friday, June 17, and Saturday, June 18, with Travis LeDoyt, hailed by The New York Times as “The Best Young Elvis.”
Growing up, LeDoyt was exposed to a broad variety of musical styles, from Country to Swing, to Rock and Roll, as well as Classical. Over the years, he’s developed into a truly remarkable talent– singer, performer, songwriter, and musician but most of all he is one of America’s most convincing, jaw-dropping tribute acts to ever grace the stage.
Although not an immediate fan of Elvis, as LeDoyt got to know more about the man and his music, he came to understand why Elvis was dubbed and will forever be known as “The King” of Rock & Roll. Particularly appealing to LeDoyt are Elvis’ early years, the Sun Recordings, a time when a kid out of nowhere became a legend. He flawlessly captures the essence of Elvis in his prime. Travis only sings Elvis’ songs from 1959 to 1962.
Saturday, June 25, brings the amazing mentalist Guy Bavli: The Master of the Mind. In 1997, Bavli first walked onto the world famous stage at Caesars Palace Casino in Las Vegas. As a result of the overwhelming popularity of his outstanding performances at Caesars Palace, Bavli was awarded a contract to perform 400 shows each year for three consecutive years.
In 2007, Bavli starred in the TV series “Phenomenon.” Today he continues to travel and perform worldwide with his unique performances and continues to astound audiences with his mesmerizing performances.
Guy Bavli makes the audience the star of the show. He delights audiences with interactive entertainment that delivers a unique combination of mystery, humor, psychology, and suspense showcased in an amazing multi-media production of sound, lights, and video.
Tickets are available online at highlandspac.org or by calling (828) 526-9047. The Performing Arts Center is located at 507 Chestnut Street in Highlands.
