Description
Old Sloop Coffeehouse will present a performance by the high-energy vocal ensemble Overboard on Saturday, November 30, at 7:30 PM at the handicap-accessible First Congregational Church of Rockport, 12 School St. Overboard began in 2006 as a humble street performing group, but has grown to be featured entertainment for the likes of American Idol and The CBS Early Show. Overboard's soul-infused vocal rock, energetic live show, and 6 albums have caught the attention of both the global a cappella community and Boston's discerning local music scene. Overboard is also a favorite of Cape Ann audiences. This performance will mark Overboard's fourth appearance at Old Sloop Coffeehouse, and the group has also appeared at the Shalin Liu Performance Center and the Gloucester Unitarian Universalist Church.Tickets can be purchased in advance for $10 from the coffeehouse web site at oldsloopcoffeehouse.org, at Gloucester Music, and at Toad Hall Bookstore in Rockport. The suggested donation at the door is $12 for adults, $7 for those 65 and older, $5 for those younger than 18, and $24 for a family.
