The Suffolk welcomes back “Top of The World: A Carpenters Tribute,” on Friday, October 11, at 8 p.m.
Who can forget the incomparable music of the Carpenters? The popular brother/sister duo of the 1970s and early 1980s gave us some of the most unforgettable ballads and melodic pop songs of all time. Here to bring all these memories rushing back is “Top of The World,” the world’s premiere tribute to the Carpenters.
Fronted by singer Debbie Taylor, her Karen Carpenter vocal resemblance is absolutely astonishing. She is backed by a seven piece band consisting of top-notch, professional industry musicians who have had amazing careers in their own right. The band members are all multi-instrumentalists and at times use three keyboards to recreate the incredibly complex arrangements created by Richard Carpenter. The attention to detail paired with their unmatched musicianship makes for the most authentic Carpenters experience out there right now.
Sharing backstories behind the music and performing hits like “Close to You,” “We’ve Only Just Begun,” “Rainy Days and Mondays,” “Please Mr. Postman” and “Yesterday Once More,” “Top of The World” takes audiences on a nostalgic journey through all things Carpenters.
Tickets range from $69 to $89 at thesuffolk.org. The Suffolk is at 118 East Main Street in Riverhead.
