Good Rockin’ LIVE! ~ A Salute to Sun Records and the Birth of Rock and Roll will be presented at 7:00 p.m. in the Madera Clubhouse Ballroom on Friday, March 27, 2015; a cash bar will open at 6:00 p.m.
This live concert event pays tribute to the birth of rock and roll and the music legends that Sun Records helped propel to stardom. In 1952 Sun Studios opened up shop in a small storefront in Memphis, Tennessee, setting off a chain of events that would change the course of musical history. In a few short years this little record company produced superstars such as Elvis Presley, Johnny Cash, Jerry Lee Lewis, Carl Perkins, Roy Orbison, and B.B. King. Good Rockin’ LIVE!, with hits like Great Balls of Fire, Folsom Prison Blues, That’s All Right, Mama and Blue Suede Shoes tells the tale of how rock was born through the music and stories of those who lived it.
