"Close to You:" The Music of the Carpenters

  • Tybee Post Theater 10 Van Horne Avenue Tybee Island, GA, 31328 United States (map)

This is the ultimate date night for you and your Valentine! Karen and Richard Carpenters’ beautiful, memorable love songs topped the Billboard charts with more than a dozen number one hits through the ‘70s.  And now, “Close to You:” The Music of The Carpenters brings these classics to the Tybee Post Theater with spot-on renditions performed by Chicago singer Lisa Rock.

Rock’s show is a rare gem when it comes to tribute shows. The songstress’s amazing four-octave range allows her to sing the hits like “We’ve Only Just Begun” and “Rainy Days and Mondays” in their original key, keeping the songs genuine and more recognizable for the audience.


“I hope everyone feels like singing along with us,” says Rock, who is performing in a duo just as Karen and brother Richard did as they toured the world. And with an arsenal of number one hits at her disposal, Rock is sure to win over our Tybee audience and create a memorable experience filled with classic, unforgettable songs. We promise you’ll be singing “I Won’t Last A Day Without You” in your loved one’s ear tonight!

“An amazing night of music. The sold -crowd was singing along to just about every song and the immediate standing ovation at the end of the show and calls and emails the next day told the entire story — people loved this show.” Jim Jarvis, Executive Director, Metropolis Performing Arts Centre
