The Doo Wop Project

Emporia Arts Council Presents: The Doo Wop Project, February 29th at the Emporia Granada Theatre · 7:00pm

The Doo Wop Project starts at the beginning, tracing the inception of group singing developed by inner city African Americans performing tight harmonies on a street corner to the biggest hits on the radio today!

The Doo Wop Project brings unparalleled authenticity of sound and vocal excellence to recreate – and in some cases entirely reimagine – some of the greatest music in American pop and rock history!

Tickets available at the Emporia Arts Center, 815 Commercial St. or online at emporiaksarts.org

Thank you to our Major Presenting Sponsor Mitchell-Markowitz Construction and Event Underwriter ESB Financial
