"Unfiltered Live" will feature Michael Tolcher & The Pros and Musical Director Will Turpin
Michael Tolcher and the Pros
will headline a popular concert series and is bringing with him an all-star
cast of local and national talent to pay tribute to the Peach State’s rich
musical heritage.
Park Tavern at Piedmont Park has tapped Tolcher to headline
the “Unfiltered Live” series, a six-week concert series that starts every
Thursday from March 21 to April 25, from 8 to 11 p.m. The park is located at
500 Tenth St. in the heart of Atlanta.
“I’m rolling it out big because Atlanta is my hometown and I
want to bring everyone together and celebrate with music,” said Tolcher, a
pop/blues/urban groove artist who has toured with Maroon 5, Dave Matthews,
Collective Soul and Blues Traveler. “Part of the theme is spontaneous
surprises, and that won’t be limited to just music.”
No surprise to anyone is Tolcher’s musical director for the
six-week residency – Collective Soul member and multi-platinum artist Will
Turpin.
“This concert series is
something that live music lovers will want to attend,” said Turpin, who
produced Tolcher’s 2006 album Certified
Organic. Georgia
musicians and music will certainly be featured each
week and impromptu moments mixed in with guest performers will
make each Thursday night its own unique experience.”
Some of the Atlanta-area musicians, all
of who are national recording and touring artists, include Jeff Mosier,
Joe Gransden and Yonrico Scott.
“We’ll play some of their music as well as material from every
great Georgia artist including Little Richard, James Brown, Ray Charles, The
Allman Brothers, R.E.M. and of course, Collective Soul,” Tolcher said. “I want
there to be a sense of pride about the music that comes from our state and the
only way to do that is to play it.”
Park Tavern is located
in the heart of Midtown on the corner of 10th Street and Monroe overlooking
Piedmont Park and the Midtown skyline. Park Tavern combines the historic charm
of the site with the modern sophistication of Atlanta’s impressive skyline.
