An Unforgettable Night of Timeless Classics!

Join us for an evening of nostalgia and musical magic as we celebrate the legendary songs that defined generations. This tribute concert brings together some of the greatest hits of John Denver, Gordon Lightfoot, Jim Croce, Johnny Cash, Neil Diamond, Kenny Rogers, James Taylor, Glen Campbell, and Bob Dylan. From heartfelt ballads to foot-stomping favorites, every note will bring you back to the golden era of American songwriting.

Experience the storytelling genius, unforgettable melodies, and soul-stirring performances that made these artists household names. Whether it’s the uplifting beauty of “Annie's Song,” the poetic grace of “If You Could Read My Mind,” the heartfelt honesty of “Time In A Bottle,” the rebel spirit of “Ring of Fire,” or the singalong joy of “Sweet Caroline,” this concert is more than a show—it’s a journey through the soundtrack of our lives.

Gary, along with Jesse Mueller on piano, Bill Chouinard on bass, Eron Woods on drums and Andy Wolf on guitar, will be performing some of the greatest songs ever written. This is two hours of non-stop entertainment. If you like beautiful songs with
​depth and meaning, you're going to like this show!

With buttery smooth vocals and a fun-loving, carefree style, Gary has a way of bringing joy to audiences of all ages while capturing the essence of a classic nightclub experience. Relive the songs you love, share the memories, and discover why these voices still echo across the decades. One stage. Nine legends. Countless memories.

Don’t miss it! Come and experience Wood, Wire & Chords starring
​Gary LaRue and his Rat Pack Band!


*** This particular event is a scripted show that is best enjoyed when viewing and listening to all aspects of the performance - during songs and in-between songs as well, not unlike a regular concert or play at a traditional concert venue. While we most certainly want you to enjoy the entire evening, in order to preserve the best site-lines and overall experience for all guests, we respectfully ask that during the show, you please be mindful of loud talking or anything else that may distract other guests or the musicians on stage. Thank you for your understanding!


Ps. Ticket price does not include any food or beverage. Food and beverages will be available for purchase from the venue.

"A terrific combination of traditional DJ and Live Singer...he's awesome!"

Singer / Entertainer / Disc Jockey / Emcee
Weddings, Private Parties, Restaurants-Clubs, Senior Living Homes & Corporate Events
Photo Booth & Vintage Ice Cream Tricycle​
Live Band or Solo

Hey Everyone!  If you're looking for entertainment for your wedding, private or corporate party, anniversary, grand opening or pretty much any event, consider me, Gary LaRue and Rat Pack Entertainment.

If you want a singer, I can do that. Backed instrumentally by anything from a big band to a quartet all the way down to a computer, I specialize in singing the hits of the Rat Pack era and other easy listening classics - that I call "Vintage Groove Music".  If you want a DJ, I can do that too. If you want a singing DJ, I think I'm the only one in the world who does that! (That's probably not true but I don't know of any others!)  

Singer, DJ, Photo Booth, Ice Cream Tricycle, PA Equipment Rental - all to help you have a happy and memorable event.

Take a look around my site, watch some videos and send me a note if you'd like.  Thanks for stopping by and have
​a wonderful day! ~ Gary
