Date: Saturday, Nov. 20, 2021 at 8 p.m.
Ticket Prices: $25, $35, $45 and $55 plus applicable fees
Artist Info: Two Moms. Not married (…Actually, married. Just not to each other.) Four kids. Two husbands. Six dogs. Minimally, two glasses of wine. Lots of laughs. #IMOMSOHARD began as a popular web-series by real-life best friends, comedians, and moms Kristin and Jen. One night, over a glass of wine and many tears of frustration, these two friends decided to tell a different kind of story. With a camera, two husbands, a babysitter, and bottomless mimosas, Kristin and Jen decided to speak openly about their fears and failures and prove that the only way to survive motherhood is through laughter and friendship.
The videos have received nearly 300 million views worldwide in just 5 years. The phenomenon that Kristin and Jen created has since been nabbed for development by Warner Brothers TV. The comedians have sold-out two national tours, written a New York Times Best Selling book, landed branded deals with Fortune 100 companies such as Wal-Mart and Uni-Lever, and taped a standup comedy special for Amazon Prime Video, launching the network’s first standup comedy platform. They have recently premiered their weekly podcast and a children’s book series with Harper Collins.

Ticket Prices: $32.50, $42.50 and $52.50 plus applicable fees
Artist Info: Rick Braun has enjoyed a career longevity that is rare in this business. He has crafted his own distinctive sound and become a staple on contemporary jazz radio. He has produced No. 1 hits for David Benoit, Marc Antoine and former Rod Stewart band sidekick, Jeff Golub. Braun achieved collaborative success on massive hits with Boney James, as a member of RnR with saxophonist Richard Elliot, and with BWB, a powerhouse trio completed by Grammy® winners Kirk Whalum and Norman Brown. He has made a mark staying true to his own musical voice and eclectic influences that have allowed him to collaborate across genres with some of the biggest names in music, including Tina Turner, Tom Petty, Sade, Natalie Cole and REO Speedwagon.
Born in Scotland and transplanted to Los Angeles at the age of three, Richard Elliot was captivated by $&B and smitten with the Motown sound. A young Richard Elliot polished his chops serving as sideman for Giants, including the Yellowjackets, Natalie Cole and Motown hit-makers Smokey Robinson and The Temptations. But many first heard the saxophone virtuosity of Elliot in the 1980s as a touring musician with the Bay Area soul-funk outfit Tower of Power. In that time, he released his debut solo album Trolltown. Since then, Elliot has released more than 20 albums, including On The Town, Soul Embrace, After Dark and And Jumping Off, among others.
