[GOSPEL] Odetta, Marie Knight and the Holmes Brothers are featured performers in this "Shout, Sister, Shout!" tribute concert to gospel star Sister Rosetta Tharpe (1915-1973). Tharpe was a pioneering singer, songwriter and recording artist, best known for combining spirituals with the blues and swing music of the 1930's and '40s. Her original ditty, "This Train," hit the charts in 1938 and led to her cross-ever popularity in gospel and early pop-rock music. But it was her witty lyricism and innovative blending of the sacred and secular that made her one of music's timeless greats. Tickets: $10, $25, $35, half-price for keiki.
