Reock & Roll returns to Kelsey Theatre to perform the music of Ernie White, who will appear with the band as he debuts his new album, “Coming of Age” at MCCC’s Kelsey Theatre August 1 and 2.
Reock & Roll Revue, led by keyboard player Tom Reock, returns to Mercer County Community College’s (MCCC’s) Kelsey Theatre for two special dates in August. The concert, “A Life in Music – Then and Now,” will feature music from the 40-year career of famed Trenton songwriter-guitarist Ernie White.The show will include special appearances by numerous performers, including White himself, who will debut his 2015 “Coming of Age” album in its entirety. This is his first album of all new material in many years.
The show is set for Saturday, August 1 at 8 p.m. and Sunday, August 2 at 2 p.m. and will be held at Kelsey Theatre, 1200 Old Trenton Road, West Windsor.
White’s own musical journey extends from his home town of Trenton to the world stage. He was signed to Casablanca Records in the early 80’s as a member of the performance troupe Sam and the Band, and, in the late 80’s, to RCA Records with heavy metal favorite Aviator. White has released four solo CDs and has played throughout North and South America. He has also written music for network television.
In recent years, White has been a mainstay of the Trenton music scene, donating much of his time to charity events such as his annual Christmas Show, which has raised more than $150,000 for local charities. He has also been a teacher and mentor to many young guitarists throughout the region.
Tickets to the performance are $25. Free parking is available next to the theater. Tickets may be purchased online at kelseytheatre.net or by calling the Kelsey Box Office at (609) 570-3333.
