CASCADE THEATRE Hampton to present final piano concert The High Street Band has been entertaining au- diences with unparalleled audience interaction since the 1990s, with musical variety that always cre- ates a party — and you're invited at 7:30 p.m. Satur- day, March 16 when they take the stage at Red Bluff's State Theatre. Founded as a jazz quartet by drummer Bruce Wehler, bassist Tim Swanson, key- boardist Stuart Dennis and sax man Randy McKellip, the High Street Band soon added a full horn section, adopted Zoot Suits and in- corporated the "High Street Experience," with front man Matt Summers and professional sax man Steve Goff. High Street Band has played on the local, re- gional, national and inter- national stage — from the Burbank Starlight Bowl to Orlando's Walt Disney World, from the Special Olympics World Games to the 2016 Burgundy and Bordeaux Festival in France. They have entertained at music festivals and pri- vate events around the United States, weddings and receptions, and helped raise hundreds of thou- sands of dollars at fund- raisers for charitable or- ganizations. The band will be per- forming "Salute to Yacht Rock," the best of the '70s and '80s crooners like Michael McDonald, Seals and Crofts, Earth, Wind and Fire, Elec- tric Light Orchestra and Styx. You'll want to sing- along. Support the community by attending this benefit concert for Rotary Club of Red Bluff.

THEATER By Leila Rodriguez Correspondent CHICO This Saturday will be an evening of punk mu- sic at the Maltese with Chico bands, The She Things and Bad Mana. Joining the rambunc- tious lineup will be emerg- ing Los Angeles-based ga- rage punk band, the Two Tens. Two Tens is made up of Adam Bones (guitarist and vocalist) and Rikki Styxx (drummer). The band stops through Chico on their Two-Headed Mons- tour (tour) promoting their first album "Volume." The 12-track album is fast, loud and in-your-face right from the first track. Leading up to the band's debut record, they released four EPs to boost an online presence and garner fans. As a new band in Los An- geles, they worked relent- lessly to get their name and sound out into the scene, Bones said. "We wanted to intro- duce everybody to what we are and what we do," he said. The two devised a plan to spread that welcome for a longer period of time and released music videos with each digital EP. "We needed to be able to book shows and get fans," Styxx said. "We were a new band and we didn't want to release our album with- out anyone knowing be- cause it just kind of sits there. We wanted to make a bigger stir."
