It's not a concert...it's a party! Spend a nostalgic evening saluting 3 of the world's most beloved musical groups who were instrumental in creating the Rock & Roll/Doo Wop sound: Cornell Gunter's Coasters ("Charlie Brown," "Yakety Yak," "Poison Ivy"); The Platters featuring 4 of America's premier singers performing their greatest hits ("Only You," "Smoke Gets In Your Eyes," "The Great Pretender"); and The Drifters, one of Rock & Roll's founding vocal groups touring the U.S. again under the auspices of their original management team with their 50 year catalog of hits ("Under the Boardwalk," "Up on the Roof," "This Magic Moment," and "On Broadway").

Combined, these three Rock & Roll Hall of Fame groups have been associated with well over forty of the top classic songs in Rock & Roll history. From "Under the Boardwalk" to "Only You" to "Yakety Yak", very few artists can boast of a richer musical resume. With such incredible musical diversity - from the comedy of Cornell Gunter's Coasters to the romance of The Platters to the Motown Magic of The Drifters - this show has songs to please every palate, delivered just the way you remember them, when you first heard them on the radio.

Two legendary Motown groups are teaming up for a night of memorable hits and classic dance moves as they return to the Luhrs Center this February!

All around entertainment legends The Temptations stand as not only the greatest vocal group of Motown Records' golden era empire; the quintet is indisputably the greatest singing group of all-time. The Temptations are world renowned ambassadors of soul, conscience and style with 16 million selling LPs, 14 #1 R&B singles, three Grammys plus induction into the Grammy Hall of Fame, membership in The Vocal Group Hall of Fame, induction into The Rock N' Roll Hall of Fame, a Star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame, and nearly 100 R&B charted songs including hits such as "My Girl," "The Way You Do The Things You Do," "Since I Lost My Baby," "Get Ready", "Ain't Too Proud To Beg", "I'm Gonna Make You Love Me" (with The Supremes), "Ball of Confusion," "Papa Was A Rollin' Stone," "Just My Imagination (Running Away With Me)," "Treat Her Like a Lady," "Stay" and more.

The Four Tops' first Motown hit, "Baby I Need Your Loving" in 1964, made them stars and their sixties track record on the label is indispensable to any retrospective of the decade. Their songs, soulful and bittersweet, were across-the-board successes. "I Can't Help Myself (Sugar Pie, Honey Bunch)," a no. 1 R&B and Pop smash in 1965, is one of Motown's longest-running chart toppers; it was quickly followed by a longtime favorite, "It's The Same Old Song." Their commercial peak was highlighted by a romantic trilogy: the no. 1 "Reach Out I'll Be There," "Standing In The Shadows Of Love," and "Bernadette."

Enter to win a pair of tickets to see Ladysmith Black Mambazo at The Appell Center's Strand Theatre in York, PA - Friday, February 1 at 7:30pm!

Contest ends January 21.

Tickets start at: $24.50

Ladysmith Black Mambazo South Africa's Five Time GRAMMY Award winning singing group, Ladysmith Black Mambazo, was founded in the early 1960s by Joseph Shabalala, then a teenage Zulu farm boy living on the lands just outside the small town of Ladysmith. In naming the group, Joseph used his hometown to honor his family history. The word Black is reference to the black oxen, the strongest of the farm animals he worked with, so to announce the strength of the group's vocal singing. Mambazo is the Zulu word for chopping axe, a symbol of the group's vocal ability.

A radio broadcast of a Ladysmith Black Mambazo concert, in 1970, opened the door to their first record contract, the beginning of a recording career that includes over seventy albums, earning nineteen GRAMMY Award nominations and those five GRAMMY Award wins, more than any other World Music group. Those albums are; Shaka Zulu (1988), Raise Your Spirit Higher (2004), Ilembe (2009), Singing For Peace Around the World (2013) and most recently Shaka Zulu Revisited: 30 Year Anniversary Celebration (2017).

Apartheid, the South African social system forced upon the country's black majority to keep the white minority government in power, was a dividing force in many ways. The musicians and artists of South Africa took two paths of protest. Some sang songs with powerful messages of revolution against the horrors of apartheid. Others, led by Ladysmith Black Mambazo, followed a path of peaceful protest through songs of hope and love. When Nelson Mandela was released from prison, in 1990, he stated that Ladysmith Black Mambazo's music was a powerful message of peace that he listened to while in jail. When Mandela was awarded the Nobel Peace Prize, in 1993, he asked the group to join him at the ceremony in Oslo. It was Mandela who called Ladysmith Black Mambazo "South Africa's Cultural Ambassadors to the World."

The group sings from a traditional music style called isicathamiya (is-cot-a-ME-Ya), which developed in the mines of South Africa. It was there that black workers were taken to work far away from their homes and families. Poorly housed and paid, the mine workers would entertain themselves after a six-day week by singing songs into the wee hours on Sunday morning. When the miners returned to their homes, this musical tradition returned with them. During the 1970's Ladysmith Black Mambazo established themselves as the most successful music group in South Africa. In the mid-1980s, American singer/songwriter Paul Simon famously visited South Africa and incorporated the group's rich harmonies into the famous Graceland album (1986) - a landmark recording considered seminal in introducing World Music to mainstream audiences.

In addition to their work with Paul Simon, the group has recorded with Stevie Wonder, Dolly Parton, Sarah McLachlan, Josh Groban, Emmylou Harris and many others. They have provided music for many movies, have appeared on Broadway and even had a documentary film, On Tip Toe: The Story of Ladysmith Black Mambazo, nominated for an Academy Award. Joseph Shabalala retired in 2014, handing the group leadership to his four sons, Thulani, Msizi, Sibongiseni and Thamsanqa. In their hands and with their voices, the future of the group is assured to continue for years to come. Ladysmith Black Mambazo carries a message of Peace, Love and Harmony as they travel the world year after year. They bring this message, in song and dance, to every theater they perform in. We hope you will join them as they spread their message.
