Neville Brothers, Dr. John play Michigan Theater in February; tickets available Saturday
Sometimes called the "First Family of New Orleans music," R&B group the Neville Brothers are led by the sweet voice of Aaron Neville. The individual brothers have enjoyed success both as solo acts (Aaron's hits have included "Tell It Like It Is" and "Everybody Plays the Fool") and as a group (including 1989's "Sister Rosa"). The group also features Art Neville, leader of New Orleans legends The Meters, along with Charles Neville on saxophones and Cyril Neville on percussion.
The concert, cosponsored by the Michigan Theater and The Ark, is slated for February 17 at 7:30 p.m. Tickets, which range from $29.50 to $75, go on sale at 10 a.m. Saturday at Ticketmaster.com and all Ticketmaster locations, including the Michigan Union Ticket Office and Macy’s at Briarwood Mall. Tickets can be charged by phone at 800-745-3000. Ticketmaster lists a "subscriber presale" starting at 10 a.m. Thursday but does not list any further information.
