We dare you not to sing along!
Join Helen Welch as she celebrates the magic and music of the Carpenters. Helen’s distinctive alto voice settles in perfectly amidst the precise, lush arrangements provided by her band performing Carpenters classics such as; We’ve Only Just Begun, I Won’t Last a Day Without You, Yesterday Once More and Close To You and many more.
With their light, airy melodies and meticulously crafted arrangements, the Carpenters stood in direct contrast with the excessive, gaudy pop and rock of the ’70s; yet they became one of the most beloved recording acts of all time.
The early 70s were The Carpenters’ best years and by 1976 they had celebrated 16 consecutive Top 20 hits and 3 Grammy Awards.
This show honors the timeless music of the Carpenters. So come and join us on this nostalgic musical journey.
