Fountain Park Home Care and Vancrest Health Care Center proudly present Splish Splash! The Music of Bobby Darin, starring Las Vegas entertainer Ron Gartner, at 3 p.m. Sunday, November 5, at The Niswonger.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Bobby Darin was an acclaimed American singer, songwriter, multi-instrumentalist, and actor in film and television. He performed in a range of music genres, including jazz, pop, rock\u2019n\u2019roll, folk, swing, and country.

Darin went on to record a treasure trove of hits that are enshrined in rock music history, including Dream Lover, Beyond The Sea, Mack The Knife, and so many more. The icon passed away following a lifetime of heart complications in 1973 at the age of 37. He was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 1990, the Songwriters Hall of Fame in 1999, and the Recording Academy gave him a posthumous Lifetime Achievement Award at the 2010 Grammy Awards ceremony.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It has been said that, had he lived, he would have been more famous than Frank Sinatra. Darin was that multi-talented. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

In this special show, Gartner honors the Darin legacy \u2026 singing the songs of the swingin’-est guy who ever put on a tux \u2026 in a show that covers everything from Darin\u2019s rock \u2018n\u2019 roll days to the evening at the Copa. Finger-snappin\u2019 favorites will be performed that take the audience back to a day of high-rolling good times.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
