July 6 Holy Trinity Anglican Church presents The Mandevilles There was a moment during the recording of Don’t Ask, the most stirring and evocative track on The Mandevilles’ new album Windows and Stones that came to epitomize the heart, soul and energy of the band. The vocal performance by band co-founder Serena Pryne was so gut-wrenching and so emotionally draining, mining the very depths of her soul that she practically collapsed into the arms of superstar producer Garth Richardson when it was over. That vocal take and the similarly powerhouse performances from her bandmates, came to be the template and benchmark for the rest of the album. “I knew it was a powerful song with a lot of emotion behind it and I was a little intimidated to record it” said Pryne. “He let me do my thing and just pour everything I had into the microphone. He said I would know when I was done.” From that moment on, that song set the tone for the rest of the record.

August 10 Rotary Club of Fonthille presents Abbamania “ABBAMANIA” is rated as the number one Abba production in the world. The cast of ABBAMANIA is from Toronto, Ontario, Canada. In the beginning, “ABBAMANIA” was six months in rehearsals just for vocal arrangements. Abba’s harmonies are very difficult to reproduce as ABBA recorded their vocals many times on each record to make them sound so big and full. Not only did the cast have to look like Anni-Frid, Bjorn, Benny and Agnetha, they had to sound like them. ABBAMANIA was a huge venture. They are backed by a live band and carry charts for a full symphony show. They sold out two shows, 6000 tickets, with the San Diego Symphony. With authentic costumes, made by the seamstress from MAMA MIA, and incredible vocals, ABBAMANIA will take you back in time to when ABBA was on stage, live in concert. |
