On FRIDAY, October 31st, 2008 at 7 & 9:30PM, the Inter-Media Art Center (IMAC) in Huntington, Long Island will host a concert with contemporary jazz sensations RUSS FREEMAN & THE RIPPINGTONS
 
To The Rippingtons, innovation is merely business as usual.  For the past 20 years the group’s signature sophisticated-yet-accessible sound- combining jazz, pop, R&B, Latin and world music elements- has defined and shaped contemporary jazz.  It has made The Rippingtons one of the most popular instrumental ensembles in the world.  Always at the technological forefront, The Rippingtons, led by the gifted composer/producer/guitarist Russ Freeman, utilize the most state-of –the-art instruments and recording techniques available to create each album.  Throughout the 90’s, as their sound evolved and their concerts took on deeper creative dynamics, Freeman became aware of the fan’s growing desire for a live chronicle of the current show.  The result is a vibrant, live collection of the kind of intricate-yet-catchy compositions we’ve come to expect from the group.

Tickets for this performance are $45.00 ($34.00 for IMAC Members).  For tickets or further information on this performance, or on other IMAC programs, call IMAC's 24-hour Arts-Line at (631) 549-ARTS.   Tickets can also be purchased at the theater from noon to 6PM, Tuesday through Friday, and after 2PM on the day of the performances.   For further information, call IMAC's business office at (631) 549-9666.
