A Tribute to Radiohead at Great Star Theater
You can catch a one-of-a-kind show celebrating Radiohead in Chinatown at the 500-seat Great Star Theater. The English rock band are known for their layered music and electronic sounds. “Karma Police”, “Let Down”, “Paranoid Android”, and “Fake Plastic Trees” are some of the unique tracks being performed by a talented string quintet. If you are a fan of Radiohead’s alternative, experimental music, this original event is an absolute must.
Neo-Soul and Hip-Hop Favorites at Great Star Theater
When one thinks of hip-hop and neo-soul, one doesn’t immediately think, “string quartet”; however, the soulful rhythms of these less conventional genres are heightened by classical instruments. Come to the Great Star Theater for an unforgettable performance inspired by the music of artists like Frank Ocean, The Weeknd, John Legend, and Childish Gambino. You’ll go home with a completely different attitude towards the songs your so familiar with.
A Tribute to Coldplay at The International Art Museum of America
While Coldplay is carrying on with the Music of the Spheres World Tour, the Candlelight series is bringing an intimate tribute to the iconic band in San Francisco. “Something Just Like This” is what you need to reintroduce yourself to your favorite Coldplay anthems. From the earlier releases like “Yellow” and “Fix You” to the electrifying notes of “My Universe”, Candlelight will take you on a journey through the group’s catalog of music.
