The Talent For Opening Weekend:

Opening Night: WORLD MUSIC   Gina Chavez .  AUGUST 9, 2018 AT 7 PM

Gina Chavez is blending the sounds of the Americas with tension and grace. As a multi-ethnic Latin pop songstress, Chavez’s passionate collection of bilingual songs traverse cumbia, bossa nova, vintage pop, indie-folk and reggaetón that takes audiences on a journey through the Americas as she discovers her own Latin roots through music. An eight-time Austin Music Award winner, Gina and her band have opened for Grace Potter, GRAMMY winners La Santa Cecilia, Gaby Moreno and Grupo Fantasma, and are winning audiences throughout the U.S. and abroad while on tour as official ambassadors with the U.S. State Department’s American Music Abroad program. She took home the Grand Prize in the 2014 John Lennon Songwriting Contest for Siete-D, a song about her experience volunteering in a gang-dominated suburb of San Salvador where she founded Niñas Arriba, a college fund for young Latinas.

EICHELBERGER JAZZ SERIES: Paul Brown ft. Chris Standring AUGUST 10, 2018 AT 7 PM

Two-time GRAMMY winning jazz guitarist, engineer, and producer Paul Brown career spans over two decades and includes the release of eight solo albums and countless collaborations with well-established smooth jazz artists like George Benson, Jeffrey Osborne and Kirk Whalum. His newest release One Way Backfeatures the #1 hit Put It Where You Want It. The Funky Joint had two #1 hits and was on the jazz charts for a year and a half, solidifying Paul as one of the prominent jazz guitarist on the scene today.

Performances in Dubai, Iceland, Japan, Canada, throughout Europe and the United States he has taken his trademark smooth groove with catchy melodic sound and made his mark on the international jazz scene. The Paul Brown sound is warm and inviting. His music is funky yet has elegance and beauty. He woos the crowd with understated confidence, as every note falls in the perfect place.  Called the “Baby Face of Smooth Jazz,” the 2011 Canadian Smooth Jazz “Best Vocalist” nominee currently has over 60 #1 hits on the Radio & Records’ smooth jazz chart, is considered to be the genre’s #1 producer and has earned the distinction of having a #1 Radio & Records chart hit as both an artist and producer.

While Standring became a popular force in contemporary urban jazz with infectious, ubiquitous R&B-driven hits. When it comes time for Standring to start a new project, he seeks out that small, indefinable and sometimes hard-to-articulate moment of inspiration that becomes a catalyst and provides the perfect sonic through line. One can trace the multitude of cool, trippy textures on his new album Sunlight to the sparkling, hypnotic sound of what he calls “swirly guitars”—split between a panning to the left and then the right on the sonic spectrum—that sparked three of the album’s key tracks. He will join Paul Brown as his special guest.

LEVITT NATIONAL TOUR .  Paul Thorn & Blind Boys of Alabama     AUGUST 11, 2018 AT 7 PM

The 2018 Levitt National Tour presents a one-of-a-kind collaboration between acclaimed Southern raconteur Paul Thorn and his five-piece band and GRAMMY-winning gospel legends Blind Boys of Alabama. Billed as the “Mission Temple Fireworks Revival,” the show will include songs off of Thorn’s 2018 album Don’t Let The Devil Ride—which journeys through classic gospel, soul and spirituals, featuring guest vocals by Blind Boys of Alabama. Thorn is celebrated for his muscular brand of roots music—bluesy, rocking and thoroughly Southern American, while speaking universal truths. He has performed on major television shows like Late Night with Conan O’Brien and Jimmy Kimmel Live!; been the subject of numerous National Public Radio (NPR) features; charted multiple times on the Billboard Top 100 and Americana Radio Charts; and performed alongside living legends like Bonnie Raitt, Mark Knopfler, Sting, and John Prine. Co-headliner, Blind Boys of Alabama—dubbed “gospel titans” by Rolling Stone magazine—push musical boundaries with innovative approaches to traditional gospel and contemporary spirituals by songwriters such as Eric Clapton, Prince and Tom Waits. Blind Boys’ 75-plus-year career has been honored with five GRAMMY Awards, induction into the Gospel Music Hall of Fame, and Lifetime Achievement Awards from the National Endowment for the Arts (NEA) and National Academy of Recording Arts and Sciences (NARAS). They’ve recorded with fellow musical greats Lou Reed, Peter Gabriel, Bonnie Raitt, Willie Nelson, Aaron Neville, Susan Tedeschi, Patty Griffin and Taj Mahal. Blind Boys of Alabama have appeared on The Tonight Show With Jay Leno, Late Night with David Letterman, The Grammy Awards, 60 Minutes, The Colbert Report and many other television shows. Levitt National Tour audiences are in for an electrifying evening of gospel meets blues meets rock!

PNC FAMILY SERIES    Trout Fishing in America   AUGUST 12, 2018 AT 3 PM

Trout Fishing in America is the longstanding, four-time GRAMMY-nominated musical partnership of Keith Grimwood and Ezra Idlet. A willingness to at once make fun of our most annoying daily habits, then to touch our hearts with tender and passionate images of family life, is what makes the connection between Trout Fishing in America and its audiences so compelling and poignant. The most recent family release is Rubber Baby Buggy Bumpers. The CD features tongue twisters, mind-benders, spooky situations and instantly identifiable slices of a kid’s life. In 2017, they changed gears and released a folk/rock CD called The Strangest Times. The project is a return to the roots of the band. The songs explore a wide range of feelings and musical styles that blend seamlessly into an inspired and cohesive work. Their infectious mix of folk/pop and family music is the result of their diverse backgrounds as well as growing up in the musical melting pot that is Texas. Their recordings have garnered three National Indie Awards, multiple Parents Choice and NAPPA Gold awards, the American Library Award, as well as four GRAMMY nominations.

Artist Renderings of the Levitt Pavillion

March 28, 2017 By Dayton Most Metro

Friends of Levitt Pavilion Dayton, a local nonprofit, has unveiled the design renderings for Levitt Pavilion Dayton, which will be constructed at Dave Hall Plaza in downtown Dayton. Construction is expected to start later this summer and the pavilion will open for concerts in the summer of 2018.

Levitt Pavilion Dayton will be a state-of–the-art music venue where all members of the community can enjoy 50 FREE concerts each summer on the Levitt lawn. “This project will feature a covered outdoor amphitheater and open lawn seating in a newly revitalized park in the heart of downtown, creating Dayton’s “urban living room”, inspired by Dayton’s rich history of innovation and aviation”, said Kevin Deal, Levitt Pavilion Dayton Board member, who oversees the design phase.  The pavilion structure has taken its design cue from the elegance and clarity of early airplane construction and the innovation of flight. The amphitheater will sit in the southwest quadrant of the park facing northeast. Plans also include state-of–the-art sound and lighting as well as a large video board for enhanced viewing. Other amenities in the park will include connected pathways, support facilities, open green spaces, artistic sculptures, signage, and more.

 

Dayton needs economic stimulus and redevelopment as well as community building to keep the urban core strong and attractive for its businesses and residents.  Levitt Pavilion Dayton will produce 50 FREE family friendly concerts over the summer making high-quality performing arts available to everyone.  Local, national, and international musicians will be featured with an emphasis on high caliber, diverse programming. In addition, a beautiful place-making community owned asset will be created, transforming a neglected green space into a re-imaged park.  This destination will also be available for other non-profits, community groups and businesses to utilize.   Friends of Levitt Pavilion Dayton needs the community’s help to make this special place a reality.  The Capital Campaign Goal is $5 million and  $550,000 more must be raised before construction can start this summer.  Please consider making a tax-deductible charitable contribution on-line www.LevittDayton.org or mobile device Text Connect to 91999 or send your check to The Dayton Foundation, 40 N. Main Street, Suite 500 Dayton, Ohio 45423 Acct. #7769.

Levitt Dayton Board member Dave Dickerson remarked, “The construction of Levitt Pavilion Dayton on Dave Hall Plaza will be a catalyst for development in this historic and urban neighborhood.  By creating social interactions among all ages and backgrounds in a family friendly environment, Levitt Dayton will be the tipping point where downtown becomes a more vibrant and bustling center for work, living, and entertainment.”

 

Levitt Pavilion Dayton is an unique partnership between the City of Dayton, Friends of Levitt Pavilion Dayton, and the national Mortimer & Mimi Levitt Foundation. Building a destination like the Levitt Pavilion Dayton in the city center will strengthen our community amenities, creating a more diverse urban core. Levitt Pavilion Dayton is an opportunity to engage people of all ages and backgrounds and bring people together through music.  Everyone is encouraged to bring their blankets and coolers to Levitt next summer to experience new music, familiar favorites, and make new friends at Levitt Pavilion Dayton.
