More on the performers:

The Fabulous Equinox Orchestra features Southern gents and childhood besties Jeremy Davis and Clay Johnson leading a fiery and soulful Southern big band "fashioned in the style and swagger of the legendary Rat Pack along with influences like Harry Connick Jr. and Michael Buble." Music selections range from the Beatles to the stars of their home state of Louisiana.

Sounds of Silence Tribute is a new project from the lead members of Burlap to Cashmere, a Dove Award-winning group that opened shows for Hootie and The Blowfish and Train. This show will feature music by artists like Bob Denver, Bob Dylan, Don McLean, Cat Stevens and Simon & Garfunkel.

The Suits specialize in hit music from the '50s through the '80s, including Motown, doo wop, pop and rock, "fusing smooth choreography and tight harmonies with exciting showmanship and fun audience interaction,"

Key of G stars AJ Bisto, a Minnesota native and Nashville resident recruited by a cruise line to perform as Garth Brooks for one of its variety shows.

"Due to AJ's natural vocal having an uncanny resemblance to the sound of Garth Brooks he has been encouraged by numerous industry professionals to create a tribute show to the #1 solo selling artist of all time," says his bio.
