# Event Details - **Event Name**: Black Tie Optional: A Tribute to Bublé and Beyond - **Event Start and End Date**: Sat, 14 Feb, 2026 at 07:00 pm - **Event Description**: Kerst Lehmann was born in East Germany in 1989, the year the Berlin Wall came down after 28 years. “My family grew up behind the wall,” he said. “I had an urge to explore the world they didn’t have the opportunities to explore.” America was where he wanted to be. While his grandparents made a living performing in operettas, little Western music was available in a closed East Germany. After 1989, he was able to hear music from The Great American Songbook and listen to works by Sinatra, Anka and Valli. “Before 1989, records were hard to come by,” he said. “I had to find my own lane. My grandparents’ passion was my gateway. My grandparents met in music school and spent their entire lives together on stage. My grandfather was limited. He was talented enough to make it big but could not leave the country. Me being in this country is their legacy.” The music of the 1940s and 1950s resonated with the young artist. “I’m an old soul,” he said. “A great song is a great song. America’s greatest (musical) contribution is the Great American Songbook, and I’m honored to pay tribute to it and keep it alive. My biggest inspiration is to introduce people my age to that kind of music.” Lehmann and his band present a show that takes the audience through an intimate, dynamic journey filled with Michael Bublé’s greatest hits and orchestrations, while enhancing it with a mix of Sinatra, Al Green, Stevie Wonder and more. The band supporting Lehmann includes Cassio Coutinho on keyboard, Paul Stewart on guitar, Wesley Cosvosk on drums, Ron Fattorusso on sax and flute, Luke Basso on trumpet and congas, and David Levitan on trombone. “We show Bublé and beyond,” Lehmann said. “It’s our own take on other songs. There are songs Bublé could have done. The show is intimate and interactive. Part of the act is to engage with the audience and take them on a journey. We want them to leave the show with something to take away: maybe they fell in love to a song or danced to it. It’s a mix of genres.” Lehmann has also begun writing his own material, including his first original song, dedicated to his wife. It was a promise he made to her and kept. Greg Reitano, the group’s manager, and Lehmann’s uncle by marriage, chimes in with words he says Lehmann is too modest to admit. “When he goes into the audience, women swoon,” he said. It’s true. When he sings, he is singing just for you. Ladies, bring your smelling salts. He’s that good. - **Event URL**: https://allevents.in/stuart/black-tie-optional-a-tribute-to-bublé-and-beyond/200028476220858 - **Event Categories**: music, entertainment, performances, live-music, art, country-music-festivals - **Interested Audience**: - total_interested_count: 54 ## Ticket Details - **Ticket URL**: https://www.lyrictheatre.com/show/11581-black-tie-optional-a-tribute-to-bubl-and-beyond?utm_source=AllEvents.in&utm_medium=event-discovery-platform&utm_campaign=stuart-events ## Event venue details - **city**: Stuart - **state**: FL - **country**: United States - **location**: 59 SW Flagler Ave, Stuart, FL, United States, Florida 34994 - **lat**: 27.19944 - **long**: -80.25436 - **full address**: 59 SW Flagler Ave, Stuart, FL, United States, Florida 34994 ## Event Organizer details - **affiliate_id**: 2 - **organizer**: The Lyric Theatre (https://allevents.in/org/the-lyric-theatre/3330621) ## Event gallery - **Alt text**: banner - **Image URL**: https://cdn-az.allevents.in/events7/banners/fa45c04f8e71d32528ce1782fbeeb675a8036b90563ffc8249eeedfa5d633664-rimg-w820-h360-dc040404-gmir?v=1771001862 - **Alt text**: thumbnail - **Image URL**: https://cdn-az.allevents.in/events7/banners/010953e7eb41625ffdbeba303b00b736bdea62b9f329c4f70bdbc5ef4ff16785-rimg-w300-h300-dc040404-gmir?v=1771001863 ## FAQs - **Q**: When is the event happening? - **A:** Sat, 14 Feb, 2026 at 07:00 pm - **Q**: Where is the event happening? - **A:** 59 SW Flagler Ave, Stuart, FL, United States, Florida 34994 - **Q**: Who is organizing the event? - **A:** The Lyric Theatre - **Q**: What type of event is this? - **A:** music, entertainment, performances, live-music, art, country-music-festivals - **Q**: Where can I find ticket details about Black Tie Optional: A Tribute to Bublé and Beyond ? - **A:** You can find ticket details about this event on AllEvents. ## Structured Data (JSON-LD) ```json [ { "@context": "https://schema.org", "@type": "MusicEvent", "name": "Black Tie Optional: A Tribute to Bublé and Beyond", "image": "https://cdn-az.allevents.in/events7/banners/fa45c04f8e71d32528ce1782fbeeb675a8036b90563ffc8249eeedfa5d633664-rimg-w820-h360-dc040404-gmir?v=1771001862", "startDate": "2026-02-14", "url": "https://allevents.in/stuart/black-tie-optional-a-tribute-to-bublé-and-beyond/200028476220858", "location": { "@type": "Place", "name": "59 SW Flagler Ave, Stuart, FL, United States, Florida 34994", "address": { "@type": "PostalAddress", "streetAddress": "55 SW Flagler Ave, Stuart, FL 34994-2140, United States", "addressLocality": "Stuart", "addressRegion": "FL", "addressCountry": "US" }, "geo": { "@type": "GeoCoordinates", "latitude": "27.19944", "longitude": "-80.25436" } }, "eventAttendanceMode": "https://schema.org/OfflineEventAttendanceMode", "description": "Kerst Lehmann was born in East Germany in 1989, the year the Berlin Wall came down after 28 years. “My family grew up behind the wall,” he said. “I had an urge to explore the world they didn’t have the opportunities to explore.”\n\nAmerica was where he wanted to be.
