We're back for our Valentine's season "Unplugged" Friday February 13 and After the 650 seat Rio Theatre’s 2025 year-end shows, with Horns and Strings, we will do our annual “Unplugged Beatles” concerts Friday, 2/13 and Sunday, 2/15. (The 14th is the traditional Tuck and Patty Valentine's Day concert.) These shows are much more intimate than our big stage shows that may feature horns, strings, guest artists and choirs. We love using the Kuumbwa's fabulous Steinway grand piano, and we pack the 7 of us into the smaller Jazz- club sized stage. More info: The White Album Ensemble is a long-running tribute band from Santa Cruz, known for performing faithful live renditions of entire Beatles albums. Their show “Beatles Music Unplugged” features a unique acoustic performance of Beatles songs. The “Unplugged” show is a deeply personal, entirely acoustic performance featuring acoustic guitars, grand piano, percussion, and rich vocal harmonies. The idea for this specific show came from band vocal rehearsals that utilized only two acoustic guitars. It is designed to highlight the beautiful melodies and vocal arrangements of The Beatles’ later music, which were too complex to perform live with 1960s technology.
