Theatre 3
There will be a cash bar in the theatre.
“Fresh from being named the “Best New Local Band” in the Illinois Times “Best of Springfield” issue, Music for Big Kids continues on a roll with the release of their first CD, Hold and Hold On. Produced, recorded and mixed by Kevin Wasmer in his locally owned and operated studio, Wasmer Waves, the album features eight songs, predominantly written by singer and rhythm guitarist Patrick Russell, with two co-writes by bassist Jeff Nevins and one from Dan Stroup, plus a song from Jacob Palmatier, a friend of the band killed in action in Iraq in 2005. Backed by the sympathetically forceful drumming of Ralph Shank and the blisteringly tasteful lead guitar work of Michael Sullivan, Hold and Hold On should transfer well into a live performance with M4BK’s proving that on Dec. 11 at the Hoogland Center for the Arts. The CD is available at the gig and as a digital download on the band’s official Web site.” (from the Illinois Times)

Hoogland Center for the Arts
The Center for the Arts is established to provide arts-related organizations with an environment to maximize their programming potential to stimulate the community's cultural growth. It provides the community with a venue to foster an understanding of and appreciation for the arts, enhance artistic expression and communication, and to enrich community interaction. The Springfield Center for the Arts is itself a product of the human drive to create. The organization grew from the collective desires of arts organizations and arts patrons to build a new facility that would meet the physical needs of the organizations and serve as a cultural hub for the City of Springfield. What began as a dream is becoming a reality as musical, theatrical and dance performance groups, visual artists, writers, and photographers all have a place to call home.Post a Countdown Widget
