Crystal Gayle

Davis Arts Council presents Crystal Gayle at the Ed Kenley Amphitheatre. Her warm, resonant vocal styling captured the attention of audiences not usually tuned in and turned on by country music. There was an undeniable sophistication and a beguiling charm about her look and her voice that was a memorable imprint on every audience.

Cirque Du Soleil – Saltimbanco

Saltimbanco -from the Italian “saltare in banco”, which literally means “to jump on a bench”-explores the urban experience in all its myriad forms: the people who live there, their idiosyncrasies and likenesses, families and groups, the hustle and bustle of the street and the towering heights of skyscrapers. Between whirlwind and lull, prowess and poetry, Saltimbanco takes spectators on an allegorical and acrobatic journey into the heart of the city.

Saltimbanco is a Cirque du Soleil signature show inspired by the urban fabric of the metropolis and its colorful inhabitants. Decidedly baroque in its visual vocabulary, the show’s eclectic cast of characters draws spectators into a fanciful, dreamlike world, an imaginary city where diversity is a cause for hope.

Cirque Du Soleil

Xavier Rudd with Jeremy Fisher

Known not just for his wholly original approach to making music and must-be-seen-to-be-believed live shows. Xav is also recognized as a great Australian activist, advocating for indigenous rights and environmental responsibility. Both his social conscious and sense of hopeful exultation co-exist on Dark Shades…”I was given two eyes and I see,” he writes on “This World as We Know It.”
From the opening notes of “Black Water” to the title track to the rocking “Up In Flames,” it is clear that Dark Shades of Blue is something different and thrilling from an artist who has always carved his own way.
Xavier Rudd will be delivering his talent to The Depot on August 15th!
Tickets will be available at Smith’s Tix Outlets, 801-467-TIXX, 1-800-888-TIXX, http://www.smithstix.com and The Depot Box Office (Day of show @ 5pm)
