When Rock 'n' Roll was Young: Doo Wop on the South Coast @ Marion Music Hall

Journey back to the sounds that rocked the mid-20th Century with Todd Baptista. Meet you at the Marion Music Hall on January 11 at 1pm for the music that the kids loved. An author, historian and concert producer, Todd shares the influences, the hitmakers and legacy of the classic doo wop performers. He shares his archive of memorabilia, photos and stories while we enjoy the sweet harmonies of early rhythm and blues.

All are welcome to this SHS Speaker Series event. Let us know you’ll be there – RSVP appreciated.
