Guitarist/songwriter/band leader Carl Baldasarre has been in the Cleveland music scene for more than four decades performing primarily in classic and progressive rock styles. In recent years, he’s become known for assembling groups of top-notch musicians to perform special shows under the name The Baldassarre Orchestra.
His latest special event pays tribute to music from the decade of 1965-1975, a period of epic change and wide-ranging eclecticism in popular music, encompassing the birth of styles such as heavy metal, progressive and psychedelic rock. Among the artists whose music they’ll bring to life in their own arrangements are the Beatles, the Rolling Stones, David Bowie, Cream, The Who, Janis Joplin, Jethro Tull, the Hollies, the Guess Who and Led Zeppelin. Oddly it also includes Queen who barely made the cut, finding their first major success in 1974, and whose music in generally associated with a later period.
They’ll be performing the show at the Kent Stage for one night only. Go here for tickets.
