The Brian Setzer Orchestra at DPAC
Iconic guitarist, songwriter, vocalist and three-time Grammy-Award winner BRIAN SETZER and his 19-piece THE BRIAN SETZER ORCHESTRA have announced their 14th annual “Christmas Rocks! Tour.” The show will perform at DPAC on Sunday, November 26, 2017.
The group’s set list will feature music off their latest Christmas album ROCKIN’ RUDOLPH (available now as a limited edition box set, CD, vinyl or download) plus music off their three previous best-selling holiday albums; and original material from BRIAN SETZER.
2017 is a big year for THE BRIAN SETZER ORCHESTRA who will celebrate their 25th anniversary in style with an exclusive landmark show at the Hollywood Bowl in Los Angeles on August 2nd. Under the stars at the legendary venue where they’ve performed on four previous occasions, SETZER’s trademark guitar work and vocal stylings will be matched with his 19-piece orchestra’s rockin’ big-band horn arrangements, making for a reliably unbeatable combination.
BRIAN SETZER belongs to an elite group of artists who’ve had four super successful phases of his career, from the Stray Cats, to solo albums, The Rockabilly Riot to BSO. The BSO show seamlessly encompasses music from all these phases. “The music I play in the big band is rock n’ roll with a jazz influence,” says SETZER. “What keeps it fresh is the quality of the players in the band. Also a big part of keeping the big band fresh is the arrangements; writing the arrangement for 18-19 people is like writing a song within a song. It makes the song you might have heard many times sound new again.”
Tickets are on sale Friday July 21 at 10:00am via DPACNC.com.
Listen this Thursday for the Touch Tones at :12 to win your tickets BEFORE you can buy them!

Kitties and K9s: Ms. Beasley
Meet Ms. Beasley, who is a 7 month old mixed breed puppy.
This little girl had a tough start. She was a stray in a county shelter with a terrible case of mange. She had virtually no hair and her skin was raw. Fortunately, Second Chance was there to step in and help this precious baby. After several months of medical treatment and lots of love from her foster mom, Ms.Beasley is all healed up and is finally ready for her forever home.
She does very well with other dogs, and being a puppy, she would do best with another active doggy friend to keep her company. Ms.Beasley is working on her house training and is even learning to ring a bell to let you know when she needs to potty!
She is a loving and happy girl, who would be great in an active home. She is good with kids 8 years and up and would be a fantastic companion to take out for a hike or even just to hang out at one of the Triangle’s local breweries.
