Champions 4 Children Benefit Concert
Featuring JT Hodges, James Otto and the Beatles Tribute Experience
Time: 5:30-9:30 pm
Location: The Forest Country Club
Join all of our Champions, Sponsors, and Vendors for a night of live music. Our concert this year will be located at The Forest Country Club's outdoor practice facilities. Guest bartenders & food trucks will be there to enhance your concert experience. We encourage you to dress for the outdoor venue. And if you attended our Annual Event last year, please bring your C4C chair. If you do not have a C4C chair, we will have some for purchase.
Our friend and featured artist JT Hodges is an outstanding American country music singer, songwriter, and music producer who always brings an incredible amount of energy and enthusiasm to the stage and to Champions 4 Children SWFL. In 2011, he signed to Show Dog-Universal Music and released his debut album in 2012 which produced 3 songs on the Billboard Hot Country Songs charts. JT is also a prolific film and tv actor, starring in films such as Finding Christmas, The Dust Storm and Christmas Stars.
Joining JT this year, will be James Otto and the Boots and Suits Beatles Tribute Experience.
James Otto is an American country music singer and songwriter. Otto began his career on Mercury Nashville Records in 2002, charting three minor singles on the Billboard Hot Country Songs charts and recording his debut album Days of Our Lives. In late 2007, he signed to Warner Bros. Records. His second album, Sunset Man, was released in April 2008. It was produced by John Rich (of Big & Rich) and Jay DeMarcus (of Rascal Flatts), the latter of whom is Otto's brother-in-law. The lead-off single to Sunset Man, "Just Got Started Lovin' You", became Otto's first Number One hit, as well as the Number One country single of 2008 according to Billboard.
Boots and Suits is a musical tribute to the early Beatles. Covering all of the great Beatles material from the Cavern days to 1965. Complete with authentic instruments and costumes, the lads take you back in time when Beatlemania was at its finest, reproducing the great music that made the band famous.
Beatles fans love the band because they are just that... REAL! Nothing is scripted and there are no wigs. The show is a must see complete with visuals, humor, and storytelling of the FAB four. Everyone sings and dances at a Boots and Suits show. Dance the night away and Twist and Shout with lads, and experience the early years of the Beatles in concert.
We look forward to welcoming back Brooke's Nugget Wagon food truck and an open bar!
