New to the CTL concert line-up, this group has played mostly
in the Reading area, but has roots in Central PA. Playing all the great
Fleetwood Mac tunes, this group really rocks.
THE CHAIN covers all the great hits of Fleetwood Mac, which has featured the
talents of Mick Fleetwood, Christine and John McVie, Lindsey Buckingham, Stevie
Nicks and others over the years. The Fleetwood Mac story is an episodic saga
that spans more than 30 years. It is the saga of a British blues band formed in
1967 that became a California-based pop group in the mid-Seventies. In between
came a period where Fleetwood Mac shuffled personnel and experimented with
styles, all the while releasing solid albums with chart topping hits such as
Landslide, Rhiannon, Go Your Own Way, Don’t Stop, Dreams, Say You Love Me, Hold
Me and many others. The five seasoned, well-respected musicians comprising
THE CHAIN have been making music together in various combinations and styles, in
original outfits and in cover bands, for over twenty-five years. It seemed only
fitting that they should come together to form the Ultimate Fleetwood Mac
Tribute, and pay homage to a group that dominated the charts during the band
members' formative years. Fronted by solo artists Kathy Phillips (vocals) and
Scott McDonald (guitar, vocals), and supported by veteran musicians Kim Williams
(keys, vocals), Randy Artiglere (bass) and Tom Nelson (drums), THE CHAIN takes
its audience members on a sweet ride down memory lane. Authentic-sounding and
always respectful, THE CHAIN leaves no stone unturned in replicating the sounds
of one of the world's best-loved, top-selling bands.

Cathy Byham, Lucy Henry, Craig Weaver, & Tom Shellenberger are
back as our favorite vocal jazz quartet serves up a helping of classic tunes and
smooth harmonies.
V.J.Q. has been making a stop at CTL for the last several
years and their popularity continues to grow. Cathy Byham, Lucy Henry, Tom
Shellenberger, and Craig Weaver have been crooning together for more than a
decade, creating their tight harmony sound reminiscent of “The Manhattan
Transfer” and “New York Voices.” With original arrangements and classic charts,
the night will mix top-notch instrumentalists and vocalists and will feature a
mix of standard and jazz love songs.
“Since I Fell for You,” “Orange Colored Sky,” “Baby It’s
Cold Outside” and “L.O.V.E.” are just a few of the tunes scheduled for the
evening. Concert-goers might also hear “Dream,” “Every Time We Say Goodbye” and
a few solo numbers by each of the performers.
Backing up V.J.Q. this time around are Melinda Sechrist on
keyboards, Tim Breon on Guitar, Matt Radspinner on bass, Adam Wright on sax, and
Bob Leidhecker on the drums.
V.J.Q. has opened for groups at the CAC and has sung at the
Little League World Series and other festivals and fairs in the area.
The concert is set for Friday at 7:30 pm. CTL’s “Couple
Special” price of 2 for $25 makes it affordable (even if your valentine is a
cheapskate at heart). They can also be purchased individually, $15 for adults
and $8 for students. Call 327-1777, weekdays from 11-4.
Get your sweetheart in the mood for love with a stop at the
Community Theatre for the smooth, jazz sounds of the Vocal Jazz Quartet.
