JEFFERSON STARSHIP
Performing and Celebrating The Music of
JEFFERSON AIRPLANE
50th Anniversary
With songs that defined a generation!
Friday, April 24th at 8 pm
Jefferson Starship, created by Rock & Roll Hall of Fame inductee and Jefferson Airplane founder Paul Kantner and former Jefferson Airplane member David Freiberg, celebrated their 40th Anniversary in 2014. The band, descended from Jefferson Airplane—who performed at Monterey and Woodstock, and at Altamont with the Rolling Stones—shared the bill countless times with Grateful Dead & Janis Joplin, and whose music helped define a generation focused on civil rights, environmental awareness and anti-war activism. In 2015, the band performs & celebrates the 50th Anniversary of Jefferson Airplane & The San Francisco Sound, which Kantner & Freiberg were instrumental in creating.
Jefferson Starship is fronted by acclaimed singer Cathy Richardson, star of the play “Love, Janis.” Longtime members Donny Baldwin (drums), Chris Smith (keyboard/bass), and guitarist Jude Gold (formerly with JGB) round out the line-up. The band’s diverse projects and performances in recent years include a symphony broadcast across the U.S. on HDNET and their heralded appearance on PBS, headlining “60s Rock, Pop & Soul,” which still airs coast to coast.
Jefferson Starship continues to perform their repertoire of hits spanning all eras of their existence, including “Jane,” “Somebody To Love,” “Miracles,” “White Rabbit,” “Volunteers,” “Count On Me,” “Find Your Way Back,” “Wooden Ships,” “Today,” “Lather,” “Crown of Creation” and many more.
