TUCKERMANS AT 9 BRINGS ROCKIN’ A CAPPELLA TO
GARRISON PLAYERS ARTS CENTER
A cappella group Tuckermans at 9 hits the stage
Saturday, February 2, at 7:30pm, at the Garrison
Players Arts Center on Route 4 in Rollinsford, New
Hampshire. (Snow date February 9.)
Based in the Seacoast, the seven-voice vocal band has
entertained audiences of all ages from Boston and
Massachusetts’ South Shore to Lewiston, Maine, and in
New Hampshire from Portsmouth to Nashua and into the
Lakes Region.
Tuckermans at 9 performs well-known pop, rock, blues,
and light jazz favorites from as far back as the
1940s, but mostly music of the 1960s to today.
“Audiences of all ages enjoy our shows because there’s
literally something familiar there for everyone,”
explains Miller. “At the same time, because we choose
songs that are just plain good, well-written songs,
people really get into things they don’t necessarily
know, at least at first. We also have a lot of fun on
stage, and it’s contagious for the audience! It’s
really a show, not just a concert.”
A typical T9 show features a cappella classics such as
“The Lion Sleeps Tonight”, “Zombie Jamboree”, “Java
Jive”, and “60-Minute Man”, but also The Beatles’
“Blackbird”, “Still The One” by Orleans, Gloria
Estefan’s “Turn The Beat Around”, Three Dog Night’s
“Joy to the World”, and Norah Jones’ “Don’t Know Why”.
In addition, the band performs original T9
arrangements, including Linda Ronstadt’s “You’re No
Good”, “No Matter What” by Badfinger, Boston’s “Livin’
For You”, and “29 Ways (To My Baby’s Door)” by Marc
Cohn of “Walkin’ in Memphis” fame.
