Collaborations: With Simon Spalding, Tracey Brenneman and Big Jim and Kathleen Kohler

Collaborations is a one-of-a-kind, one-night only musical event that will combine the talents of four outstanding New Bern performers. 

Simon Spalding performs locally with his wife Sara in Tuppence and in the Rock & Roll band The Bears, as well as in local musicals. He will perform on a variety of stringed instruments to present music he doesn’t usually get to share, including some of his originals. In the show’s first half, Simon will also share the stage with Tracey Brenneman, who can usually be found performing with the touring band Second Helping, singing and playing keyboard and guitar. Tracey will present several of her original songs, accompanied by Simon.

Big Jim Kohler has achieved legendary status as a performer of Chicago-style blues with his voice and guitar. He too has a musical side his usual audiences don’t often hear. He will be joined by his wife Kathleen and by Simon to present raucous Irish pub-style music. The show will close with songs featuring all four performers.

Tickets: Adults $20/Students $10.
