Jackson Browne – Interlochen Arts Festival – June 28, 2016


Since the 1960s, Jackson Browne has combined artistry and advocacy. One of the most literate songwriters in popular music, Browne uses music to convey message that are deeply personal and political in nature. Browne’s many accolades include inductions to the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame and Songwriter’s Hall of Fame.

Accompanying Jackson on the road this summer are longtime band mates Val McCallum (guitar), Mauricio Lewak (Drums), Jeff Young (keyboards), Bob Glaub (bass), Alethea Mills (Vocals) and the acclaimed multi-instrumentalist Greg Leisz (guitar, lap steel, pedal steel).

“This is my ideal band, with some of my favorite players, whose combined gifts provide the musical foundation and emotional underpinnings of my new songs,” says Jackson. “The interplay between Val McCallum and Greg Leisz—the effortlessness of their chemistry is a gift really, that just dropped into my lap. I feel fortunate to have them out on the road for this tour.”

World Youth Symphony Orchestra, JoAnn Falletta conductor – Interlochen Arts Festival – July 3, 2016


Imagine: A warm summer evening, beautiful Green Lake and the debut performance of the 2016 World Youth Symphony Orchestra! Under the direction of conductor JoAnn Falletta, WYSO will perform selections evoking both moving and stationary images: Mussorgsky’s Pictures at an Exhibition and a suite from Shostakovich’s score for the film The Gadfly.

JoAnn Falletta currently serves as artistic director for the Buffalo Philharmonic Orchestra, a position she has held for the past 15 years. Beyond her commitment to the Buffalo Philharmonic, Falletta is in high demand as a guest conductor, appearing at the helm of internationally recognized orchestras such as the London Symphony, China National Symphony and Orchestra National de Lyon. Falletta is also a leading advocate of youth musicians and women conductors.

The Capitol Steps – Interlochen Arts Festival – July 5, 2016

Founded in 1981 by Senate staffers planning Christmas-party entertainment, the Capitol Steps have been hilariously deconstructing political headlines ever since.

This election year, take a break from Facebook rants and television advertisements and enjoy the humor inherent in our political system.
