Under the baton of Director Jerry Lopes, CPCB’s “On The Road” performance will include a mix of automotive-themed arrangements, 1950s-70s hits and some of the band’s traditional American favorites.

Voice and instrumental soloists will be part of the show, which will run until about 8:30 p.m., with a 20-minute intermission in the middle.

The concert is sponsored by Thunder Valley Casino Resort.
