Mike Veal Band in Concert
2023-05-06 15:00 - 17:00 | Cumming City Center, 423 Canton Road, Cumming, GA, 30040, United States
Join us for another FREE community concert at the City Center Lou Sobh Amphitheater, featuring The Mike Veal Band!

Playing a hot combination of blues, rock, funk and fun, the band members’ diverse musical backgrounds and regional influences color each member’s contribution to the tight sound for which the band is loved. Born and raised in the heart of the deep south, Lead Vocalist Mike Veal is no stranger to the blues. As a child living in the towns of Milledgeville and Macon in south Georgia, Mike was strongly influenced by area musicians and singers whose lives and songs reflected the true origins of American Blues.

As he grew, Veal found himself drawn to the soulful voices of Otis Redding, James Brown and Gregg Allman. Those early influences still strongly color Mike’s style today. At 16, Mike started singing professionally with Sansara Show Band, and later worked with Johnny Rivers, and Gary Puckett and the Union Gap. Today, working with long-time friends and bandmates, Mike consistently delivers 110% on stage, believing “you should never do a song you can’t lose yourself in.”

Free admission & free parking. Outside food can be brought in but coolers, cans, bottles, and all alcoholic beverages are not allowed.

Together, they form a magnetic energy that will entice every partygoer to the dance floor. A-Town A-List performances are designed to build momentum and end with a bang. With intuitive timing honed through years of on-stage experience, these performers are more than just musical artists; they are experience artists.

And all three singers’ performance chemistry is infectious, evoking the emotional delivery of nearly every fan-favorite of the past 60 years …from Bruno Mars to Frank Sinatra, and from the Beatles to Katy Perry and Beyonce. On a personal level, the performers in The A-Town A-List know they’re lucky to celebrate life’s brightest moments with their clients.

A1A: The Official Jimmy Buffett Tribute in Concert
2023-07-07 15:00 - 17:00 | Cumming City Center, 423 Canton Road, Cumming, GA, 30040, United States
Join us for the official Jimmy Buffett Tribute Show: A1A at the Cumming City Center Lou Sobh Amphitheater!

The Official and Original Jimmy Buffett Tribute Show was born in 1991 when Lead Vocalist and Guitarist, Jeff Pike, asked Atlanta Parrot Head Club and PHIP Founder, Scott Nickerson, to join him in his already successful one-man tribute to Jimmy Buffett. In 1992, the band won a Jimmy Buffett Sound Alike Contest for Margaritaville Records and the A1A ball started rolling – a ball that is still rolling 30 years later.

A1A performs as a seven to a ten piece band, complete with audio and light production, bringing to life a colorful and energetic family friendly Jimmy Buffett Tribute Show. For added ambiance and realism, the A1A Beachwrecked Pirates is a sure fire way to boost up the enthusiasm and energy! The energy, musicianship, originality, and excitement that have always surrounded an A1A performance is an experience and a driving force that has helped the band remain the first and foremost Jimmy Buffett Tribute Show in history.

Free admission & free parking. Outside food can be brought in but coolers, cans, bottles, and all alcoholic beverages are NOT allowed.
