SUMMARY:Jefferson Starship - Runaway Again Tour | FireKeepers Casino
DESCRIPTION:One of the most successful arena rock bands of the 1970s and ‘80s\, Jefferson Starship earned three platinum and eight gold records\, along with numerous Top 40 Billboard singles. Now celebrating their 50th anniversary\, the band has reached a rare milestone that only a select few rock legends ever achieve. \nFormed by Paul Kantner in the 1970s\, Jefferson Starship was envisioned as a collective of musical adventurers whose work grew into a catalog of rock classics. Today\, the band continues to honor Kantner’s vision while thriving as a road-conquering force\, performing across all 50 U.S. states\, five continents\, and countless countries. \nThe band’s current lineup includes original member David Freiberg\, drummer Donny Baldwin (who first joined in 1982)\, keyboardist Chris Smith (who joined in 1998)\, guitarist Jude Gold (who joined in 2012)\, and singer/guitarist Cathy Richardson (who joined in 2008 after Kantner saw her perform with Big Brother and the Holding Company). \n“Jefferson Starship’s music defined a generation\, and their live performances continue to resonate with fans old and new\,” said Jim Wise\, Vice President of Marketing at FireKeepers Casino Hotel. “It’s their 50th Anniversary celebration and the perfect event for anyone with guests in town for the holidays who love classic rock.”

We endeavor to do this by sponsoring a series of free concerts that present musical artistry that is exciting\, beautiful\, varied and enjoyable. We will underwrite the concerts by means of donors and sponsors in order to make the concerts available to the entire community.\nFor the past 10 years\, we have enjoyed a partnership with the Michigan Humanities and the Michigan Council for Arts and Cultural Affairs for grant funding to help support the series. Due to recent funding cuts\, this source of funding is not currently available\, so we will be relying totally on the generosity of local business and patrons to keep this popular series free to the public.

SUMMARY:Aaron Lewis & The Stateliners | FireKeepers Casino
DESCRIPTION:Aaron Lewis\, the Vermont-born powerhouse\, first found success with Staind\, the 2000s-era hard rock band known for its emotional depth and powerful sound. While Staind remains active\, Lewis has also earned widespread acclaim as a solo country artist\, embracing his roots and achieving two No. 1 Billboard Country Album debuts with Town Line (2011) and Sinner (2016). His success continued with a platinum collaboration alongside country legends George Jones and Charlie Daniels on “Country Boy” and a gold-certified Billboard No. 1 with “Am I The Only One” in 2021. \nHis 2022 album Frayed at Both Ends became the best-selling country album in America\, further solidifying his place as one of country music’s most authentic and heartfelt voices. Lewis continues that legacy with his newest project\, The Hill (2024)\, a collection of songs that reflect his signature blend of honesty\, emotion\, and storytelling. \n“We’re thrilled to have Aaron Lewis return to the FireKeepers stage\,” said Jim Wise\, Vice President of Marketing at FireKeepers Casino Hotel. “His authenticity and talent resonate deeply with audiences\, and we know guests are in for another outstanding performance.”
