SUMMARY:MidAtlantic Men Presented by Live on Stage Permian Basin
DESCRIPTION:Please note for all events we have a clear bag policy with a size limit of 12x6x12″ or a non-clear bag/wallet with a size limit of 8x3x5″. This policy includes diaper bags.  \nIntroducing the MidAtlantic Men a mesmerizing trio who’ve dazzled audiences on Broadway stages with their captivating vocals and magnetic charm. Comprising two endearing Americans and one witty Brit\, they’ve set out on a musical quest to settle a timeless debate: which side of the pond\, Britain or the US\, truly has the superior tunes? Dive into an auditory adventure as they bring iconic hits from legends like Elvis\, The Beatles\, Madonna\, and Queen to life\, seamlessly weaving in classics from Elton John\, Billy Joel\, Coldplay\, Bruce Springsteen\, Tina Turner\, and more. As they blend their voices in harmonious perfection\, their playful banter and delightful humor have left audiences around the world entertained and enthralled. The MidAtlantic Men finally settle the score…. who does it better?” \nThis group have toured the planet and first met on the stages of London and Broadway where they continue to delight crowds when they aren’t together as MidAtlantic Men. Notable credits like Les Miserables\, American Idiot\, Dear Evan Hansen\, Sweeney Todd and Billy Elliot to name just a few. The trio also have the unique honor of having performed concerts on every continent\, including Antarctica. Currently\, they all reside in NYC and\, despite their different accents\, have formed a bond over their love of performing. Not only are they singers in the MidAtlantic Men\, but they are “multi-hyphenates” in their own right with talents ranging from voiceovers (the voice of Burger King and Covergirl)\, film acting (Billions\, Nurse Jackie)\, composing original off-Broadway musicals (I Love My Family But…)\, writing and comedy (UCB

SUMMARY:Little Joe Y La Familia
DESCRIPTION:The traditional Tex-Mex style of norteño was fused by Little Joe (born Jose Maria DeLeon Hernandez) with influences of country music\, blues\, and rock to create the up tempo hybrid known as “Tejano.” Together with his band\, Little Joe Y La Familia\, his music has reached far beyond the Texas and Mexico borders and has been one of the most popular Tex-Mex bands in the music industry. Little Joe has been entertaining more than 50 years and has been described as the “KING OF THE BROWN SOUND”. \nJose Maria DeLeon Hernandez “Little Joe” was born to Salvador “La Cotorra” Hernandez and Amelia DeLeon Hernandez in a three wall dirt floor car garage in Temple\, Texas on a cold stormy night on October 17\,1940. The seventh of 13 children\, Little Joe began playing music in 1953 with his cousin David Coronado’s band\, David Coronado & the Latinaires. Two years later\, he performed his first paid gig with the band at a high-school sock hop in Cameron\, Texas. In 1958\, Little Joe made his recording debut with the song “Safari\,” released by Torrero Records in Corpus Christi\, Texas. The following year\, Little Joe’s brother Jesse joined the band on bass and vocals. When Coronado left shortly afterwards\, Little Joe assumed leadership of the group. Throughout the early ’60s\, Little Joe led the band through a series of recordings on small independent labels. He underwent a personal transformation after Jesse died in an automobile accident in 1964. Determined to achieve commercial success\, he altered his musical approach to include more rock and blues influences. \nSongs of the Polka King\, Vol. 1 In 1968\, Little Joe formed two labels of his own: Buena Suerte for recordings in Spanish\, and Good Luck for recordings in English. He later added a third label\, Leona Records. His musical approach shifted again in 1970. After performing in the San Francisco Bay Area\, he became enchanted by “Latinismo” and changed the name of his band again. In 1985\, Little Joe y la Familia signed their first major-label recording deal with WEA International. Two years later\, Little Joe formed his fourth label — Redneck — and released the double live album 25th Silver Anniversary. After releasing two albums for WEA\, Little Joe switched to Sony International\, where he remained until 1983\, when he launched his fifth label\, Tejano Discos. His first release on the label\, “Que Paso\,” earned him his third Grammy nomination. In 1996\, Little Joe performed on the Frankie Yankovic album Songs of the Polka King\, Vol.1\, singing a duet with Yankovic of “Just Because/Si Porque.” Little Joe has appeared in two films: Proposition 187\, a Deadly Law and Down for the Barrio. \nFifty Years…and over 50 albums later\, Joe continues to tour the world\, trailblazing\, looking forward to new challenges\, breaking down cultural and musical barriers and innovating his musical style. As always\, Joe strives to bring many people together to make a more peaceful and harmonious world. \n\n\nREAD LESS

SUMMARY:Styx LIVE in Concert
DESCRIPTION:Creating and recording new music is often considered the lifeblood of any band—an ethos AOR torchbearers Styx continue to embody with the release of Circling From Above\, the 18th studio album in their formidable catalog. Spanning 13 tracks\, the album navigates the complexities of the human experience through the intersecting lenses of technology and nature. \nThe album\, the band’s third in eight years\, delivers a 41-minute\, end-to-end listening experience that is both thought-provoking and exhilarating. A masterclass in storytelling\, it blends signature Styx hallmarks with bold steps forward—building on the creative momentum of recent releases The Mission(2017) and Crash of the Crown(2021).

SUMMARY:Shifting Subjects: Heroes of the West: Exhibition Opening
DESCRIPTION:The first hero was nature herself; sweeping landscapes awed early audiences and are still prominent in modern pieces. Then\, the people took their turn. Though early depictions of cowboys and Native Americans were often flawed in interpretation and depiction\, it is the heroic moments of perseverance within a harsh landscape that made them worthy of immortalization through art. Finally\, wildlife stole the focus. \nThe simple yet powerful balance animals create in nature harmonized the disruptiveness of people and the emptiness of a landscape. Each of these subjects has created visual lessons on what the West is\, was\, and how it has changed today. \nAdmission to the Museum and it’s exhibitions is always free. Shifting Subjects: Heroes of the West is on view April 2 through May 31.

SUMMARY:Home\, Love\, and Loss: Exhibition Opening
DESCRIPTION:This exhibition is the third in a series of American art exhibitions created through a multiyear\, multi-institutional partnership formed by the Amon Carter Museum of American Art as part of the Art Bridges Cohort Program. Bringing together more than 66 works from the collection of Art Bridges\, the Amarillo Museum of Art\, Art Museum of South Texas\, Amon Carter Museum of American Art\, and the Ellen Noël Art Museum\, this exhibition features family lifecycles from aging to death. This collection of works\, comprised of paintings\, photographs\, works on paper\, and video\, delves into the milestones and challenges of family and community life—from birth to aging\, and from the bonds of joy to the fractures of loss. The exhibition invites visitors to reflect on how we form families and communities; how those relationships are disrupted by adversity\, such as illness\, poverty\, or immigration; and how they are fortified through love\, celebration\, and resilience.
