Join the Cuesta Wind Ensemble for an evening of wind music classics by great American and International composers. Jennifer Martin conducts.

Led by legendary drummer Jerry Marotta, the band features elite talent from across the industry, including vocalists Joey Eppard and Lindsey Skeye, guitarists Peter Calo and Matt Finck, bassist Jennifer Maidman, keyboardist Dr. David Jameson, and a four-piece horn section stacked with heavy-hitters: Jay Collins, Bill Harris, Chris Pasin, and Annie Whitehead.

Based in Woodstock, NY and known for selling out venues across the Northeast, Reelin' in the Years isn't really a tribute band at all—it's Steely Dan's legacy brought to life.

A little magic can take you a long way. After James Henry Trotter's parents are tragically eaten by a rhinoceros, he goes to live with his two horrible aunts, Spiker and Sponge. Life there is no fun, until James accidentally drops some magic crystals by the old peach tree and strange things start to happen. The peach at the top of the tree begins to grow, and before long it's as big as a house. Inside, James meets a bunch of oversized friends- Miss Spider, Old-Green-Grasshopper, Centipede, Ladybug, and Earthworm. With a snip of the stem, the peach starts rolling away, and the great adventure begins!

Tickets are available online, or call the box office at (805) 546-3198.
