Shirley Andress: For Once In My Life- The Heart, Soul & Style of Vikki Carr
Sat February 28, 3:00 PM
LaSells Stewart Center, Corvallis
This concert brings to life the music that defined Vikki Carr’s rise in the 1960s from her breakout success with "It Must Be Him" to belting out "I Love You Baby" and "Can’t Take My Eyes Off of You". Modeled after her famed appearances at the Persian Room, Plaza Hotel, New York City, where the lights were low and cocktails sparkled, we celebrate Carr’s unforgettable voice, timeless elegance and soulful, stylish classics in a bygone era of sophisticated pop.
Carr’s music told stories- romantic, wise, witty and wonderfully human. Songs like "Forget You", "Some of These Days", "The Other Man’s Grass is Always Greener", "Days", "Happy Together", and of course the heart wrenching "With Pen in Hand".
Through stories and songs, we honor not just Vikki Carr’s hits…but the woman behind them: bold, elegant, and unmistakably original.
Thank you to our sponsors, The Eye Center and Collis Wealth Management, for this production.
