Event Details

The Manhattan Transfer and Take 6

THE MANHATTAN TRANSFER and TAKE 6, two of the most acclaimed, award-winning vocal groups in pop music, create an unforgettable concert event that will thrill audiences of all ages. Between them, the two groups boast a remarkable 20 Grammy Awards, and a range of styles that covers nearly every genre of popular music; from jazz to swing, from gospel and R&B to pop.

As The Manhattan Transfer mark the 40th Anniversary of their debut recording on Atlantic Records, original members Janis Siegal, Alan Paul and Cheryl Bentyne roll out a thrilling career retrospective with the help of newest member Trist Curless.

Take 6 will share six virtuosic voices united in crystal clear harmony, against a backdrop of syncopated rhythms, innovative arrangements, and funky grooves. This show combines unexpected twists and turns to create a once-in-a-lifetime event. Heralded by Quincy Jones as the “baddest vocal cats on the planet!” Take 6 (Claude McKnight, Mark Kibble, Joel Kibble, Dave Thomas, Alvin Chea and Khristian Dentley), is the quintessential a cappella group and model for vocal genius.
