“We’re preparing for one of our best seasons,
yet packed with 12 of the best tribute classic rock and country bands for 6
Saturday concerts under the stars this summer at the Discovery Center,” shared Stacy Gorin,

Twice-crowned
World’s
Greatest Tribute Band Kenny Metcalf’s A
Tribute to Elton John, will bring Elton
to the San Bernardino Mountains at Big Bear Lake, Saturday June 24th.
‘Elton’ as portrayed by Kenny Metcalf, has the voice and
appearance of Elton John when he was young. From rhinestones to sequins, every
detail has been meticulously recreated. Iconic costumes and glasses (created
for Elton himself) by Ray Winston finishes the magic.
Now,
more than ever there is demand and desire
to step back in time and experience the sights and sounds of this artist in his
prime; Kenny Metcalf and his band deliver.
Opening for Metcalf will
be The Winehouse Experience, a
tribute to the late Amy Winehouse. The Winehouse
Experience featuring Mia Karter is a celebration
Winehouse’s unique style and artistry packed with her incredible original music
and many of the classic hits she covered over the
years.
