April 9, 2008
His reign as King of the Blues has been as long as that of any monarch on earth. Yet BB King continues to wear his crown well. At age 76, he is still light on his feet, singing and playing the blues with relentless passion. Time has no apparent effect on BB, other than to make him more popular, more cherished, more relevant than ever. Don't look for him in some kind of semi-retirement; look for him out on the road, playing for people, popping up in a myriad TV commercials or laying down...

Etta James has seen it all: in a life lived to the full, she has experienced all the ups and downs, the highs and lows, the joy, the pain and then, rejuvenation, reinvention and renewal. Perhaps unlike any one of the dozens of albums she has recorded during a distinguished career that spans five decades, ALL THE WAY could be said to capture – if just one record could possibly do so – a miniature kaleidoscope of the emotions, feelings, expressions and sentiments that this remarkable woman...

In reviews, Wilcox's voice is perhaps most often compared with James Taylor, though a 1994 Acoustic Guitar cover story characterized it as Taylor combined with a "husky breathiness more reminiscent of the late Nick Drake." That article also called him the "best known of the brilliant crop of singer-songwriters to emerge in the late '80s."
This concert will be held in Studio Bee at the Pikes Peak Center.
