John Cafferty & The Beaver Brown Band brings their high-octane energy to the stage with hits like “On The Dark Side,” which dominated the Billboard Rock charts and MTV for weeks in the ’80s.

Celebrating over 40 years of making music, Shooting Star continues to shine bright. With classics like “Last Chance” and “Bring It On,” their legacy of heartfelt rock lives on, even after losing founding member Van McLain in 2018. Come join them as they carry forward the spirit of Van’s timeless songs.
