RICK SPRINGFIELD TO PERFORM AT THE CALVERT MARINE MUSEUM
Saturday, July 30
Grammy Award-winning singer, songwriter, and musician, Rick Springfield will perform live at the Calvert Marine Museum’s PNC Waterside Pavilion on Saturday, July 30. Opening up for Springfield are two other iconic 80’s bands, Night Ranger and The Romantics. Tickets are $44 for reserved seats and $54 for premium seats (additional fees apply) and are on sale now at www.calvertmarinemuseum.com.
Springfield’s chart topping songs include, “Jessie’s Girl,” “Don’t Talk to Strangers,” “An Affair of the Heart,” “I’ve Done Everything for You,” “Love Somebody,” and “Human Touch.” Rick Springfield has sold 25 million albums and scored 17 U.S. Top 40 hits. He’s a best-selling author and an accomplished actor who most recently starred opposite Meryl Streep in the feature film Ricki and the Flash. In 2014, Springfield was honored with a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame, located around the corner from the first apartment he lived in when he first arrived in the U.S. from Australia in 1971.
Night Ranger has earned widespread acclaim and multi-platinum album status as they produced legendary hits such as “Sister Christian,” “Don’t Tell Me You Love Me,” and “When You Close Your Eyes.” The Romantics, made up of original members—Wally Palmar, Jimmy Marinos, Mike Skill and Rich Cole—are known for having created some of the most influential and beloved rock and roll of all time, including the singles “What I Like About You,” When I Look In Your Eyes,” and a cover of Ray Davies’ “She’s Got Everything.”
