The Linda Ronstadt Experience

/in ,

The Linda Ronstadt Experience is RETURNING to the historic Capitol Theatre presented by our neighbor and generous sponsor, Gunther Wealth Management!

Thursday, June 1 at 7:30 PM

The Linda Ronstadt Experience is the premier tribute showcasing the greatest variety of songs made famous by Linda Ronstadt. The show takes you on a musical journey of smash hits like “You’re No Good’, “When Will I Be Loved”, “That’ll Be The Day”, and “Blue Bayou” but also takes its time to cherish Linda’s early days with The Stone Poneys and highlights the 1970s where she helped forge the Country-Rock Sound with classic renditions of songs by The Eagles, Jackson Brown, and Warren Zevon. The show doesn’t stop there, but marches right into the 80s where Linda bridged the New Wave sound into huge hits with her chart-topping tenth album “Mad Love”. The show also pays homage to Linda’s explosive live shows, including material by The Rolling Stones, Tom Petty, Little Feet, and other now-classic artists of the day!

Come out and revel in the songs Linda Ronstadt brought to life, beautifully performed by the Linda Ronstadt Experience. Tristan McIntosh (2016 American Idol finalist) takes you on an emotional ride of purity, power, and heartbreak as she soars through these songs as though she has lived them herself! Be part of the experience, and follow Tristan McIntosh and The Linda Ronstadt Experience as they bring Linda Ronstadt’s music into the 21st century!

“It’s not often you see a performance so good that they receive a standing ovation, much less MULTIPLE ones. A phenomenal show tonight by Tristan McIntosh and The Linda Ronstadt Experience.” – The Lamp Theatre, Irwin, PA

Tickets are on sale now and seating is open!

Weekly music series Thursdays from 6:30pm to 8:00pm at Yankee Hill Lock, 550 Queen Anne Road, Amsterdam

Fort Hunter, NY – Schoharie Crossing State Historic Site is excited to announce another season of Putman Porch Music at Yankee Hill Lock.  The site will be hosting the weekly series on Thursdays from 6:30pm to 8:00pm at Yankee Hill Lock off Queen Anne Road, Amsterdam.   This series invites local musicians to come spend an evening on the historic Putman Canal Store porch to jam and enliven the vibe of the former Erie Canal stop off.

Musicians with an interest in American roots, bluegrass and folk music are encouraged to spend some time on the porch and be a part of a great shared experience.  Much like a group of canawlers that happen to be stuck waiting at the lock, a few instruments and strong voices is all that is needed to pass the time.

Putman Porch Music will occur every Thursday in June from 6:30pm to 8:00pm.  These are free events open to the public.

The grounds for the site are open all year from dawn until dusk. Putman Canal Store is located at 550 Queen Anne Road, Amsterdam.
