Tosco Music Party - Sept 11 2010

Georgia Middleman @ the Sept 2010 TMP
A few times a year I have the privilege of listening to and photographing a spectacular musical event here in Charlotte held at the CPCC Halton Theatre.  That event is the Tosco Music Party.  The event has a long tradition of excellence and community support exceeding 20 years.  In short it's a night of music featuring some very talented singer-songwriters and musicians who volunteer their time and talents for the charity. 

With a list of 20 performers taking the stage during each show, the genre mix is always representative of the tastes in the room.  Everything from rock to bluegrass is on tap.  The greatest thing is the level of talent - it's second to none.  The performers all have released albums - either self produced or signed with a label.  Most are Indie labels which tends to make them real and in touch with the people in the audience.

A nicer group of people you'll never meet..

Here's a link to the images I shot at the show last week - the anniversary of Sept 11th..

Cheers..

Monty
