Switchback Riviera Benefit Show

The Riviera Theatre is pleased to announce a special benefit concert by Switchback (duo Martin McCormack & Brian FitzGerald, featuring percussionist Nick Hirka.) This performance will feature an eclectic mix of folk, roots, and Irish music, plus some 30s and 40s jazz and a selection of songs from Switchback's award winning catalog of over 300 original tunes which have been described as "breathtaking scenery for your ears." A Switchback concert is always a crowd-pleaser with lots of audience involvement, colorful stories of their travels around the US and abroad, and a healthy dose of comedy thrown in for good measure.

Playing over 200 engagements a year, Switchback has shared the stage with such notable Celtic musicians as Cherish the Ladies, Gaelic Storm, Liz Carroll, and John Williams, and performed at festivals and venues ranging from the intimately famous Bluebird Café of Nashville to the 3,400-seat Star Plaza Theater in Merrillville, Indiana. Wherever they play, no matter the size or age of audience, Switchback always captivates and charms folks with their energy and creativity.
