These 3 are not famous yet. And this is not a tribute group. But you can expect them to honor an eclectic mix of Sinatra, Bruno Mars, Johnny Cash, Bobby Darin, and others in the same show.
Shaun is the lead singer of Tonic Solfa and an Emmy winner.
Theodore Brown is a vocal percussionist, pianist, and sought-after sideman.
Dave Stanoch is a drummer known the world over having authored a famous book for musicians as well as toured with many of the "greats."
Together, these three have garnered a top 5 Billboard album and are bringing their brand of Amercian music and humor to Chankaska for the first time!
Come see what the Star Tribune described as a once-in-a-lifetime "performance that goes for the gut in rousing fashion!"
Food will be available to purchase from S&B BBQ
