Love the classic sounds of Frankie Valli, The Drifters or The Del-Vikings? Ever wonder what Maroon

5 would sound like if they had lived in the Doo Wop era? The Doo Wop Project (DWP) traces the inception of group singing developed by inner city African Americans performing tight harmonies on a street corner to the biggest hits on the radio today. In their epic shows, DWP takes audiences on a journey from foundational tunes of groups like the Crests, Belmonts and Flamingos through their influences on the sounds of Smokey Robinson, The Temptations and The Four Seasons, all the way to “Doo Wopified” versions of modern musicians like Michael Jackson, Jason Mraz and Maroon 5. The DWP brings unparalleled authenticity of sound and vocal excellence to recreate, and in some cases entirely reimagine, some of the greatest music in American pop and rock history! This show is scheduled for 2 p.m. RSVP is needed by July 26. Please note: tickets are non-refundable after July 26.
