Ever since boyhood, Jonathan Butler has been using his gifts of song, composition, and instrumentation to communicate the messages of his soul. His soaring, gritty, but beautiful, voice transports listeners to deeper realms both emotionally and spiritually.<\/p>\n

Couple Butler\u2019s mass appeal with saxophonist and multi-instrumentalist Gerald Albright, one of the biggest stars of R&B, contemporary, and straight-ahead jazz, one of the genre\u2019s most compelling and consistent artists.<\/p>\n

Albright has earned the reputation as a \u201cmusician\u2019s musician.\u201d His signature searing and soulful sax lines coupled with his ebullient tenor, baritone and soprano saxophone arrangements give him a compelling stage presence.<\/p>\n

These days are ours, happy and free, with \u201cHappy Days Live!\u201d at the Niswonger! Take a trip down memory lane with Potsie and Ralph as they celebrate the show\u2019s 40th anniversary! Anson Williams and Donny Most will be sharing some of their favorite moments from the \u201cHappy Days\u201d television show, along with rare photos, live music, and never before seen home videos.<\/p>\n

They will also share reminiscences of their coming-of-age experiences on the show, followed by a question-and-answer session that gives audience members the opportunity to ask questions of their very own.<\/p>\n
