Event Notes

× Top of the World: A Carpenters Christmas Show

The incomparable Carpenters gave us some of the most unforgettable ballads and melodic pop songs of all time, including “Close To You,” “We’ve Only Just Begun,” “Rainy Days and Mondays” and “Yesterday Once More.” Enjoy a nostalgic journey through the Carpenters greatest hits as well as holiday favorites like “Merry Christmas Darling” while sharing the backstories behind the music. Top Of The World is the world’s premiere tribute to The Carpenters! Fronted by singer Debbie Taylor, her Karen Carpenter vocal resemblance is absolutely astonishing. She is backed by a seven-piece band consisting of top-notch, professional industry musicians who have had amazing careers in their own right. The band members are all multi-instrumentalists and at times use 3 keyboards to recreate the incredibly complex arrangements created by Richard Carpenter. The attention to detail paired with saxophone, trumpet, flute and many more instruments complete every song to perfection! This show does not use tracks or pick up musicians like other shows. Top of the World brings the most authentic versions of the Carpenters music to the stage. No doubt, you will be singing along. Debbie captures the warm tones and contralto range that made Karen’s voice so unique. Sit back and sing along to your favorite Carpenters hits.
