WATC Presents: "The Drifters" Thurs, May 22nd 6PM

TICKETS ON SALE NOW! -Makes a GREAT generational gift!!

Starting at 6:15pm The Drifters will offer a 30 minute talk back session prior to the main show, discussing their rock and roll history, taking questions from the audience.

Through a historical journey, which included no less than 5 legendary lead singers, including Rock & Roll Hall of Famers Clyde McPhatter and Ben E. King, the group's ongoing story has covered the entire spectrum of Rock & Roll. They were the first musical group to include string instruments into Rhythm & Blues music with their hauntingly beautiful song, "There Goes My Baby".

They were the first musical group to sell 2 million records with their pop classic, "Up On The Roof". Along with fellow inductees the Rolling Stones, the Beatles, Bob Dylan and the Supremes, the Drifters were in the first class of Rock & Roll legends to be initiated into the Hall of Fame and the first African American group to be inducted. Their classic tune "Under The Boardwalk" is the most played R & B record of all time. 20 other million sellers followed.

Join us at the Historic Woodward Arts Theatre for this once-in-a-lifetime experience with this legendary group!
