Nelson Rangell
Acclaimed virtuoso on flute and piccolo and one of jazz fusion's most accomplished performers, Nelson Rangell will electrify Celebration Place! Rangell is one of the most diverse performers in the genre, equally adept at soprano, alto, and tenor saxophone.
Milwaukee’s very own Christopher’s Project will open up for Rangell and entertain us with their smooth melodic infusion of Jazz, R&B, Reggae, and Classic Soul.
The Real Deal
featuring Tallan "T-Man" Latz and Michael Coleman
Opening the show is Kenosha’s own, The Real Deal. Their blend of blues, jazz, funk, R&B, & rock has garnered them a strong following and they truly have become one of the hardest working, most popular bands in the area. Joining them is nine-year-old Tallan "T-Man" Latz, prodigy and blues guitar phenom, and Grammy nominated Michael Coleman, Chicago’s funkiest bluesman.
"Artist Row" Is Back!
Back by popular demand is the interactive “Artist Row”, a visual arts feature where concertgoers can browse fine art and craft booths. Lemon Street Gallery artists will practice their craft while the public looks on, offering a rare opportunity to see how an art piece is developed. Corporate and nonprofit display booths are available this year so you can promote your goods and services to nearly 2000 attendees from Southeastern Wisconsin and Northern Illinois.
