Bennett to Bieber. Harrison to Talking Heads. Dawes to Zeppelin. They’re all a So and So.

Join us under the stars outside Brucemore’s iconic mansion for an evening celebrating the songs that have become part of the soundtrack of our lives. Featuring Brucemore favorites Anna Barnts and Dillon Rairdon, alongside Reegan Silver, and backed by the ever-versatile “Brucemore Boys”—Jim Coates, Lincoln Ginsberg, David Nanke, and Gerard Estella—this talented group will take you on a musical journey across genres, decades, and generations.

You’ll hear songs you know by heart, tunes you haven’t thought about in years, and a few surprises along the way. They’re the songs that will have you singing every word, tapping your foot, and saying, “Oh, I love this one!”—even if you’re not quite sure who sings it.

So grab a drink, settle in with friends, and enjoy a summer evening filled with great music, shared memories, and the unmistakable magic of Brucemore after dark.
