Straight from his 18-year stint on “The Tonight Show,” Kevin Eubanks will headline the 3rd Annual Gettysburg Festival; the June 26 performance in his native Pennsylvania will mark one of his first post-NBC appearances.
Eubanks, who recently announced his final day as “The Tonight Show” bandleader is May 28, has jokingly said, “After 18 years of playing America into commercials, I’m gonna go somewhere where I can finish a song.”
“Kevin Eubanks is a household name for many Americans, but some may not realize how talented Eubanks truly is,” said Festival Executive Director Alice Estrada. “The Gettysburg Festival is thrilled to provide a showcase for his amazing range of musical talent, from smooth jazz to acoustic and electric fusion. I have no doubt he’ll deliver a fun, exciting concert that will leave attendees with a newfound respect for this consummate guitarist.”
Eubanks will appear on the Gettysburg Festival Main Stage at Gettysburg College, Saturday, June 26 at 8 pm. Tickets, $40 for premium seating and $25 for lawn, are available online at www.gettysburgfestival.org or by calling ticketing agent the Majestic Theater Box Office at (717) 337-8200.
The Gettysburg Festival, June 18-27, celebrates arts, culture and cuisine. Taking place throughout downtown historic Gettysburg, the Festival offers more than 100 events – the majority of which are free – featuring world-class artists, chefs, and musicians.
