"Jefferson Starship ROCKED the house with the classics we all know and love! The solidly crafted symphonic arrangements add to the excitement of the night.
If you are looking for a concert to bring the audience to their feet, this is the one!"
-Stuart Chafetz
Principal Pops Conductor, Columbus Symphony Orchestra
“Band sounded great. Orchestra sounded great. Audience went nuts. What more could you ask for?”
- Neal Gittleman Artistic Director and Conductor, Dayton Philharmonic Orchestra
“Awesome night last night at Tanger - Greensboro Symphony with special guest Jefferson Starship! It was a hippy trippy evening of songs that everyone knows . . . The entire band simply oozes cool, and their humble vibes made their presence even more special. And I have to say our orchestra was on fire, enough to evoke a well-deserved section-by-section shout out by lead vocalist Cathy Richardson, who was as charismatic and soulful as any singer out there.”
