The Elk
Creek Winery will unveil its new outdoor amphitheatre this weekend
with a Jimmy Buffett-themed concert and dinner.
Rebekka Seigel, event organizer for the winery, said crews are
working to finish the stage by Friday for Saturday’s performance.
The stage, measuring 30 feet deep and 40 feet wide, will play
host to a number of concerts and events this summer.
A1A, a Buffett cover band, will play Saturday night, featuring
Dave “Fingers” Taylor, the original harmonica player
for Buffett.
The event will feature fake palm trees, beach balls and a Cheeseburger-In-Paradise-themed
dinner.
“We’re going to make it as festive as we can,”
Seigel said.
Other events slated for this summer include bluegrass artist Katie
Lauer performing on June 16; fireworks, hot-air balloon rides
and rock ‘n roll band Wiley McDermott & The Roadrunners
preforming on July 7; and Cincinnati’s jazz-infused Blue
Wisp Big Band, featuring guest trombonist Max Seigel of New York
City, will perform on July 21.
