UPDATE: The contest has ended and the winner is Jennifer Carpenter! You should have received an email from Charlotte on the Cheap.

Have you attended a Tosco Music Party show yet? If you like music, of any genre, you should.

It’s a family friendly musical variety show. Bands and musicians each play two songs. You might see a jazz pianist, followed by bluegrass band, followed by a classical guitar virtuoso. All in all you will experience the music of approximately 15 acts.

Tosco Music Party is a Charlotte tradition going back more than 25 years. It started as a gathering of friends in John Tosco’s living room and kept growing.

Now the show fills the 1,200 seat Knight Theater. But it’s still a gathering of friends. A few times during the evening the audience stands and joins in a sing-a-long (lyrics provided) backed by the excellent Tosco House Band and Singalong Choir.

The musical acts are a combination of local and regional bands and nationally and internationally touring artists. Go to Tosco Music Party and you might see the next big act.
