What we’re about
We are a group of unbelievably fun friends that meet regularly at different places around the burbs. Most of us are in the age range of 50+ but we do have some mature 40-somethings and some very alive 60-somethings. We invite all our friends---SINGLE, WIDOWED, COMMITTED RELATIONSHIPS AND EVEN THOSE THAT ARE MARRIED AND WANT A FUN NIGHT OUT- to invite their friends to come and hang out with us and meet our friends and make new friends.
It is through friends that almost all our friends have found interesting and fun people to enhance our lives. You will meet really good, fun and happy people at our events. You may meet someone to be friends with, do business with, or make your lifelong friend! Our married friends have single friends, our single friends have married friends, our widowed friends have married friends, single friend even and widowed friends, our committed couple friends have married and single friends. BOTTOM LINE....FRIENDS ARE FRIENDS! Friends are Friends!!! Do you get it? LOL
We love to do different things from themed dance parties, house parties to dinners out, art openings, wine tastings, street festivals and bar hopping.
We promote conversation, laughter, interaction and most of all FRIENDSHIPS!
Hope to meet you soon at at one of our FUN events!

## About the Performance
Chicago’s best cover band comes to Ravinia’s Carousel, transporting audiences back to the ’60s, ’70s, and ’80s! Featuring some of Chicagoland’s best musicians, the band offers an unstoppable six-piece horn section, tight four-piece rhythm section, and three powerful singers who command the stage. This is no ordinary band!
With a playlist no other band can touch, Brass from the Past pays tribute to the legends of rock and soul, performing the classics of Motown, R&B, funk, soul, and rock. They cover the hits of Stevie Wonder, Four Tops, Temptations, Michael Jackson, Chicago, Aretha Franklin, James Brown, BS&T, Pattie Labelle, Bruno Mars, Chaka Khan, O’Jays, Tower of Power, Prince, Tina Turner, Bee Gees, and many, many more. With their unstoppable energy, they are a staple at private events across Chicagoland and have performed with international acts including The Temptations, The O’Jays, Ray Charles, Bob Hope, Tony Bennett, Count Basie, Maynard Ferguson, Lionel Hampton, Clark Terry, The Four Freshman, Natalie Cole, Anne Murray, Rita Moreno, Bob Newhart, Bill Cosby, Steve Allen, Dennis De Young of Styx, and Sammy Davis.
