DARIUS RUCKER GOES BIG BAND FOR CHARITY

Darius Rucker Goes Big Band For Charity

He’s done rock and pop. He’s done hip hop and r&b. Of course, the longest stretch of his career has been in the country field. But big band? Darius Rucker will be putting on a big band show in his hometown of Charleston, South Carolina, with the proceeds going to charity. The Darius Rucker Big Band Gala at the Gaillard Center in Charleston is a one-night event with local charitable causes benefiting. “These big band shows are some of my favorite nights as it’s the only time I get to perform so many of the standards we all grew up listening to with the backing of such an incredible orchestra,” said the singer. “It’s all to benefit incredible non-profit work locally.” Those local charities are the CMA Foundation’s music education initiatives for Charleston County Schools and the Carolyn G. Rucker Nursing Scholarship at MUSC Shawn Jenkins Children’s Hospital. The event takes place April 7th. Tickets go on sale tomorrow at 10AM local time, with price points ranging from $50 to $250.
