SUMMARY:Chattanooga Horn Authority
DESCRIPTION:Buy Tickets: https://eventim.us/chahornauthority26\n\nChattanooga Horn Authority Live in Chattanooga | Songbirds \nDoors at 6:00 PM \nShow at 7:00 PM \nSeated Show \nIn a music landscape increasingly shaped by digital production and stripped-down arrangements\, the Chattanooga Horn Authority is a bold\, brassy counterpoint—a living reminder of the era when rock bands weren’t afraid to bring a full horn section to the front of the stage. This eight-piece ensemble has become one of the region’s most distinctive acts\, blending technical precision with the kind of joyful\, big-band energy that defined the FM radio generation. Their mission is simple but ambitious: keep horn-driven rock alive\, loud\, and thriving in the Scenic City.\nThe band’s set lists read like a curated tribute to the giants of the genre. Chicago\, Blood Sweat & Tears\, Steely Dan\, Van Morrison\, Huey Lewis and the News—artists whose arrangements demanded not only skill but personality. And personality is exactly what the Chattanooga Horn Authority delivers. When the organ growls\, the drums shuffle\, and the “three-headed horn monster” roars to life\, the room shifts. It’s not mere nostalgia; it’s a celebration of a sound that still hits with the force of a brass-powered freight train.\nLocal venues and event organizers have taken notice. The band has become a high-energy staple at Hi-Fi Clyde’s\, where late-night crowds pack the floor for sets that stretch well into the night. They’ve also become a go-to act for major community events\, including Collegedale’s Freedom Festival\, the City of Chattanooga’s New Year’s Eve Ball Drop at Coolidge Park and providing the opening acts for nationally touring acts at Barrelhouse Ballroom and Riverfront Nights. This isn’t your local bar band—they’re a full-scale musical experience.\nPart of the group’s charm lies in its members\, who range in age from 40 to 70 and bring decades of musical experience to the stage. All are Chattanooga-area residents forming a lineup of seasoned musicians with deep local ties and impressive résumés. Their shared goal was to create something different—something bigger—than the typical cover-band circuit.\nIn a city with a rich musical heritage\, the Chattanooga Horn Authority isn’t just preserving a genre—they’re elevating it. One soaring brass line at a time\, they’re carving out a space all their own and reminding Chattanooga that some sounds never go out of style. \nArtist Links: \nFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/p/Chattanooga-Horn-Authority-61560652372806/\nYoutube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCmckYwm65rDQjPyQnq5MM8A \n\nBuy Tickets: https://eventim.us/chahornauthority26\n\n  \nVenue Policies (Please Read): \nNo large bags or backpacks.

SUMMARY:Pierre Bensusan
DESCRIPTION:Buy Tickets: https://eventim.us/pierrebensusan26\n\nPierre Bensusan Live in Chattanooga | Songbirds \nDoors at 6:00 PM \nShow at 7:00 PM \nSeated Show \n“It’s like the guitar has been given free rein to play itself!”\nFrench acoustic guitar virtuoso\, vocalist\, and composer Pierre Bensusan\, surnamed “Mister DADGAD”\, has taken his unique sound to all corners of the globe.\nWinner of the Independent Music Award for his triple live album “Encore”\, voted Best World Music Guitarist by Guitar Player Magazine readers’ Poll\, winner of the Rose d’Or at the Montreux Festival for his debut album\, Pierre is recognized as one of the greatest guitar players of the 21st century.\nWhen Michael Hedges titles one of his compositions “Bensusan”\, you know that the inspiration behind it must be special\, and Pierre Bensusan certainly is. Guitarists from Leo Kottke to Larry Corryel\, to Tuck Andress\, Tommy Emmanuel\, Mark Knopfler\, Andrew York\, Andy Timmons\, Pat Metheny\, and Steve Lukather… have sung his praises\, and Steve Vai released three Bensusan albums on his label Favored Nations. And it’s not just guitarists who are so inspired by Pierre’s music\, as a recent studio collaboration with him on Donny Osmond’s latest album “Start Again” goes to show. \nIf World Music means the fusion of traditional\, contemporary\, jazz\, classical\, and pop music\, then Bensusan is one of the most eloquent World Music musicians of our time. A pianist in his beginnings\, then self-taught on the guitar\, the originality of his style makes him one of today’s greatest guitarists and composers for the instrument. Also called “The Prince of DADGAD”\, his story is far from trivial\, and it is on stage that this artist has earned his stripes: among others\, the Rose d’Or of the Montreux Festival\, and being elected Best Guitarist of World Music by the readers of Guitar Player Magazine! His triple album “Encore” won the Grand Prix at the Independent Music Awards in the Best Live Album category… Since his first performances in 1974 in France\, the guitarist has sold half a million albums and given thousands of concerts around the globe\, both solo and through numerous collaborations.\nPierre Bensusan is an adventurer of unusual lands. His music is an intimate and orchestral hymn\, a solo crossing on a multi-shell Lowden guitar subjected to the natural elements with sound molecules and finger pulp on an ebony fingerboard for open tuning – a unique and transparent technique\, under the fingers of an adventurous pilgrim. \n  \nArtist Links: \nWebsite: https://www.pierrebensusan.com/\nInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/pierrebensusan/\nFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/pierrebensusan\nSpotify: https://open.spotify.com/artist/5gwjYIVPjuGklvvIhM9EnI?si=-j_nYoaLThetBSI2jLLNLA\nYoutube: https://www.youtube.com/bensusanhq \n\nBuy Tickets: https://eventim.us/pierrebensusan26\n\n  \nVenue Policies (Please Read): \nNo large bags or backpacks.
