Rich Little

June 27

Rich Little

The man of 1,000 voices, Rich Little has been dubbed “the best impressionist in the world” and is bringing his Las Vegas show to River City. Rich Little got his start just like almost every other comic of his time - night clubs. He was a very popular comic in these clubs, but if there was one thing Rich was best known for, it was impersonations. In 1998, Rich took a look back at his most remembered moments of his career: his appearances on the “Dean Martin Roasts,” in an infomercial to promote the Roast videos. Rich says he will ALWAYS remember those moments.

One of the most impressive guitarists to emerge from the rich Bayous of Southern Louisiana in recent years, Tab Benoit’s guitar tone can be recognized before his Otis-Redding-ish voice resonates from the speakers. He doesn’t rely on any effects and his set up is simple. It consists of a guitar, cord, and Category 5 Amplifier. The effects that you hear come from his fingers.
