GRAMMY Award-winning Richard Marx<\/strong> will take the stage at the Musikfest Caf\u00e9 presented by Yuengling June 7, 8 p.m.<\/p>\n Nearly three decades of making music has garnered Marx a rightful place in the spotlight as one of the pop-rock genre\u2019s greatest. To this day he is the only male artist ever to have his first seven singles reach Top 5 on the Billboard Charts. Four of those hits appeared on his self-titled debut album, including \u201cHold on to the Nights\u201d and \u201cDon\u2019t Mean Nothing,\u201d which earned him a GRAMMY nomination for Best Male Rock Vocal Performance. Hot on the heels of his rapid rise to fame, Marx released his 1989 album Repeat Offender<\/em>, which went quadruple-platinum, followed by the also platinum Rush Street<\/em> and Paid Vacation<\/em>. To date, Marx has sold more than 30 million albums.<\/p>\n As if catching a second wind, Marx shifted tracks mid-career to begin songwriting and producing. He has helped countless artists become household names, boasting such hits as Josh Groban\u2019s \u201cTo Where You Are\u201d and Keith Urban\u2019s \u201cThis I Promise You.\u201d In 2004, Marx claimed a Song of the Year GRAMMY Award for co-authoring Luther Vandross\u2019 \u201cDance with My Father.\u201d Marx will bring his acclaimed talent to the Musikfest Caf\u00e9 stage with A Solo Acoustic Evening on June 7. Tickets for the concert are $35-$80, with a special VIP package also available.<\/p>\n On Nov. 10, 7 p.m., vocal group Under the Streetlamp<\/strong> will bring its sensational holiday show to the Musikfest Caf\u00e9 stage. Dance in the aisles while merrily singing along to songs from the group\u2019s live PBS specials and studio album, Every Day\u2019s a Holiday. Look for classics like I’ll be \u201cHome for Christmas,\u201d \u201cSanta Bring My Baby Back,\u201d \u201cRun Run Rudolph,\u201d \u201cAv\u00e9 Maria\u201d and many more!<\/p>\n Comprised of leading cast members from the Tony Award-winning musical Jersey Boys<\/em>, Under the Streetlamp has performed on Broadway more than a dozen times and on international stages in shows such as 42nd<\/sup> Street, Thoroughly Modern Millie, Good Vibrations: The Beach Boys Musical<\/em> and Dracula<\/em>.

A musician since childhood, Palmer made his real debut into the music scene at age 15 when he joined the band Farlowe & The Thunderbirds, which earned national recognition for its hit song \u201cOut of Time,\u201d written by The Rolling Stones\u2019 Jagger and Richards. He went on to play in other bands, including The Crazy World of Arthur Brown and Atomic Rooster, until joining Keith Emerson and Greg Lake to form Emerson, Lake & Palmer (ELP). The trio recorded five albums in four years, all of which went platinum, while producing classics like \u201cLucky Man\u201d and \u201cHoedown.\u201d<\/p>\n After ELP disbanded in 1979, Palmer helped form the popular group Asia, which recorded classics like \u201cHeat of the Moment\u201d and \u201cSole Survivor.\u201d The group disbanded just a few years later, leading Palmer to play in various bands until he created Carl Palmer\u2019s ELP Legacy with bassist Simon Fitzpatrick and guitarist Paul Bielatowicz.
