Connections Band this Sunday: Tribute to Carole King and James Taylor

Posted on 05:55 by Unknown
Hey Everybody:

Hope you're finding ways to stay cool during this "hottest July on record."

One great way would be to come to our Connections Band show this Sunday night.

How about THAT for a segue?

Did you know, btw, that the etymology of "segue" comes the music world? It was originally used to describe smooth transitions from one song or piece to another.

For example, it's a pretty smooth segue that our show this Sunday night is:

A Tribute to James Taylor and Carole King

The two have been good friends for years, and their music is associated together in so many ways. King, arguably, is the most prolific songwriter of her era. And Taylor, arguably, the most iconic singer-songwriter.

We'll do just about every song you expect to hear:
"You've Got a Friend"
"Jazzman"
"Fire and Rain"
"You Make Me Feel Like a Natural Woman"
"Shower the People"

The Carole King set features the women in our group, taking center stage.

I'll be playing and singing throughout the JT set.

Here's the details:

Connections Band: A Tribute to the Music of Carole King and James Taylor
Sunday, July 27. 6 pm
Walnut Hill UMC
10066 Marsh Lane
Dallas, TX 75229


Here's the map

We're expecting a pretty nice crowd, so come early and stay all night. (Because of our early start time, we'll be done before the sun goes down!)

Our beneficiary for the night is "
Nothing But Nets," and we're hopeful that we can raise several thousand dollars for this great cause.

In other band news, our brand new website should soon be up and running. I will send you info about this when it's done.

Hope to see you all Sunday night!

Peace, love, and an adequate AC unit,

Eric Folkerth
