On Saturday, June 29, 2024, at 8 p.m., The Suffolk will be presenting an evening with Grammy-winning songwriter Jimmy Webb. Webb has topped the charts in various genres from pop to country to disco with his songs being interpreted by some of the industry’s greatest artists. His most famous songs, including “MacArthur Park,” “Wichita Lineman,” and “Worst That Could Happen,” remain timeless classics.
The evening will not only feature Webb’s iconic tunes but also the stories behind these hits. From his first songwriting job at Motown to his career trajectory that took him from a farm town in Oklahoma to the top of his profession, Webb will share the inspiration behind his songs and his experiences in the music industry.
Webb’s touring show “An Evening with Jimmy Webb” and his literary memoir, The Cake and the Rain, offer fans a unique connection to their favorite songs. This event is more than a concert; it’s a master class in songwriting that you can sing along with.
Tickets for the event range from $49 to $69, plus applicable fees, and are available online at TheSuffolk.org.
