Ronnie Spector & the Ronettes, KatieBeth
It’s been a long time since Ronnie Spector bubbled to the top of public consciousness, via productions by ex-husband Phil Spector. But the 75-year-old former Veronica Yvette Bennett has stayed busy with occasional recording projects and backup vocal features. In 2007 her group The Ronettes was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame as “the ultimate girl group.” The former Gobbler Supper Club in Johnson Creek may seem an unlikely venue for a legend; always thought of as the Prairie School of Architecture’s idea of what a grounded flying saucer might look like, the restaurant in its heyday boasted carpeted walls, pink and purple chairs and a rotating bar. It’s a strangely perfect environment to hear hits like “Be My Baby,” “Walking in the Rain” and other favorites. With KatieBeth.
