The California Songbook

Songbook Live! is a cabaret-concert series created by James A. Rocco, in collaboration with Minnesota and nationally based performing artists and musical arrangers. Each show takes an intimate look at the stories behind the songs that have become the soundtrack to our lives. An outgrowth of the wildly popular Broadway Songbook® series, which played for seven years at The Ordway Center for the Performing Arts and venues around the country, the series has expanded to include all popular music styles, with live and virtual experiences of knockout performances.
