UNDER THE STREETLAMP WITH GENTLEMAN’S RULE HEADLINE THE WILBUR THEATRE ON MAY 29TH

Boston, MA – Under the Streetlamp with Gentleman’s Rule are set to perform The Wilbur Theatre on Thursday, May 29th 2014 at 7:30 PM.

With their unique style and modern “Rat Pack” persona, UNDER THE STREETLAMP brings the American Radio Songbook to a whole new level in their second television special for PBS. With the mantra “Retro never sounded so now,” these four extremely talented and charismatic former cast  members of the Tony® Award-winning Broadway musical “Jersey Boys” provide an electrifying concert produced at the renowned Chicagoland’s Star Plaza Theater. “UNDER THE STREETLAMP: Let The Good Times Roll” is part of special programming premiering on PBS stations throughout the month. The first batch of airings started to air Saturday, March 1. To celebrate the premiere of both specials, UNDER THE STREETLAMP and GENTLEMAN’S RULE will launch a 50-city U.S. concert tour on April 17 in Bloomington, IN at the IU Auditorium. It concludes June 26 in Newark, NJ at the NJPAC. More shows will be added in the coming weeks. Fans should check the group’s websites for updated show and ticket info. Backed by an outstanding ten-piece band, singers Michael Ingersoll, Shonn Wiley, Michael Cunio and Christopher Kale Jones bring these classic hits back to the millions of fans who fell in love with this music in the first place. The show includes classic hits of the 50s, ‘60s and ‘70s with the perfect balance of tender ballads and uptempo classics, all done with the same signature harmonies and slick dance moves that have made them irresistible. The title of this program–“Let The Good Times Roll”–says it all. Of course no STREETLAMP show would be complete without a musical tribute to “Jersey Boy” Frankie Valli and the Four Seasons. The next generation of a cappella entertainment, GENTLEMAN’S RULE, takes this unique style of music to a whole new level in their first television special for PBS. From the creator of Straight No Chaser and the producer and manager of UNDER THE STREETLAMP, GENTLEMAN’S RULE exudes youth, energy and incredible harmonies in a concert performance that brought down the house at Chicagoland’s prestigious Star Plaza Theatre. GENTLEMAN’S RULE blends their youthful style and outstanding vocals with timeless classics and contemporary hits. Their diverse music selections include songs by the legendary Manhattans, Bill Withers, the Rolling Stones, Rascal Flatts and the Spencer Davis Band, just to name a few. Whether the music is classic ‘60s, ‘70s, or contemporary hits, GENTLEMAN’S RULE applies their unique harmonies to create a “wow” factor unlike any other a cappella group.
