8/1/22 Ripon Summer Concert Features The 5 Card Studs
1 August 2022 News
The Horicon Bank Ripon Summer Concert Series (Friday, August 5th) features the return of hardest working lounge band in the Midwest, the 5 Card Studs. A performance by the 5 Card Studs features a unique blend of big-time Las Vegas attitude and 70’s TV game show schmaltz, all glossed over with a washed-up lounge/wedding singer veneer. The concert, which is sponsored by Diedrich Jewelers, will take place from 7:00 to 10:00 pm at the Village Green in downtown Ripon.
Musically, their performances feature many recognizable 60s & 70s AM Gold classics – hits from artists such as Neil Diamond, Engelbert Humperdink, Tom Jones, Santana; soul classics from Al Green, Smokey Robinson, The Spinners, Wilson Pickett; one-hit wonders like Brandy (You’re a Fine Girl), Hooked On A Feeling, Green Eyed Lady, Hot Child In The City, and The Love Boat; disco hits by the Bee Gees…the entire list is just too huge to mention. All of this is delivered by the expert musicianship of the five seasoned veterans in the 5 Card Studs, making for an unforgettable experience in entertainment.
The series, which is organized by Ripon Main Street, Inc., takes place through the end of August at the Village Green located at the corner of Watson and Seward Street in historic downtown Ripon. A variety of beverages are available and participants are encouraged to bring lawn chairs or blankets to sit on. No carry-ins are allowed in the park because beverage sales help cover entertainment expenses.
Next week’s concert features The 308s.
