A Look Bacharach with RetroFizz and Friends

Great 1960s Lounge Pop & Jazz

Join RetroFizz for their annual tribute to that genius of American Popular Song, Burt Bacharach. This year’s all-star special guest lineup will include Maud Hixson, Curtiss A, Julius Collins, Kendra Glenn, Becky Schlegel, Nate Dungan, John Kerns and possible others!

Ariel Donahue: Vocals

Jimmy Kennedy: Keyboard, Vocals

Joe Weismann: Bass, Vocals

Mo Engel: Drums, Vocals

Plus Jeff Horwich: Sax/Guitar/Percussion/Ukulele/Accordion/Percussion/Vocals (and probably other things)

RetroFizz celebrates the music that rolled on the radio without rocking— Mancini and Bacharach, Bossa Nova, movie themes, British invasion ballads, Brill Building tune-smithery and some surprise musical mash-ups. The band is made up of veterans of the MN music scene, with résumés that include every style imaginable; bluegrass, punk, country, folk, rock, pop, swing, jazz, r&b, a cappella and easy listening.

“Like a crisp, ice-cold poolside tea on a hot summer day, RetroFizz refreshes the soul. The nightingale vocals of Ariel Donahue paired with dreamy background harmonies of Jimmy Kennedy, Mo Engel, and Joe Weismann capture the intoxicating essence of a blissful elevator ride in the early 70’s during mom’s afternoon department store shopping spree. Each song is a treasure from the past you didn’t know you needed to hear and yet you are thrilled having heard it. Sparkling with ethereal effervescence, RetroFizz is an incredibly nutty gas!!” – Vic Volaré
