Bay Chamber Concerts

Postwar 1950's America was an optimistic, confident, enthusiastic society and an economic colossus where people enjoyed increasingly greater wealth and leisure time. TV overtook radio as the most important cultural influence and began broadcasting ads for a device that would transform society: the automobile. Families wanted to get in their cars and go!

doo wop Welcome back the days of saddle shoes and poodle skirts with the doo-wop supergroup The New Brooklyn Reunion, made up of The Emotions (Echo), The Classics (‘Til Then) and The Excellents (Coney Island Baby). The look, the sound, the feel will bring you back to the 50s & 60s when music was fun! Relive all the nostalgic greatness with artists who provided the soundtrack to teenagers parking at Inspiration Point in the back of a T-Bird.

Listen to The Classics:
Till Then

Have fun and come to Doo-Wop & Oldies Spectacular dressed the part: Girls, pull on your bobby socks, poodle skirts and cat eye glasses! Guys, grease back your hair, peg your jeans and put on your letterman's cardigan. Think T-Bird, 45 RPM records, hula-hoops and soda fountains. Don't be a square, get creative, and make the scene!
