Backed by an outstanding ten-piece band, singers Michael Ingersoll, Shonn Wiley, Michael Cunio and Christopher Kale Jones bring these classic hits back to the millions of fans who fell in love with this music in the first place.

The show includes classic hits of the 50s, 60s and 70s with the perfect balance of tender ballads and up-tempo classics, all done with the same signature harmonies and slick dance moves that have made them irresistible. The title of this program — "Let The Good Times Roll" — says it all. Of course no Streetlamp show would be complete without a musical tribute to “Jersey Boy” Frankie Valli and the Four Seasons.
