Frank DiSalvo in a Vegas-style Concert - THIS EVENT IS SOLD OUT

This late-afternoon Vegas-style cabaret concert will be held at Port Ludlow's beautiful Bay Club. Seating will be at round tables of 8, with doors opening at 3:30 p.m. for table selection, wine and appetizers. Each adult ticket holder is entitled to one complimentary glass of wine. PLPA will have additional wine available for sale. Featured performer Frank DiSalvo will sing two sets from 4:00 to 5:00 and from 5:30 to 6:30 p.m.

From a tender age, Frank DiSalvo was influenced by his mom's Sinatra records and those of other great crooners of the 50s and 60s. At the age of six he told his mom, "I wanta be a singa!" Nine years later he discovered the guitar and headed up his first band in high school. Some of his bands throughout the years were in the California cities of Santa Cruz, San Jose, Red Bluff and Redding. Moving to the California desert in 2011, he now performs from September through May at The Indian Wells Resort Hotel and tours during the summer months.

Residents Lanny and Terri Ross are fully underwriting this performance as a benefit for Port Ludlow Performing Arts (PLPA), s 501(c)(3) non-profit that provides a series of six concerts between September and April as well as a Sounds of Summer celebration in June. In addition they provide musical outreach to Jefferson County (WA) schools and jazz camp scholarships to deserving students. Ticket revenues cover less than half of concert expenses, so fund raising from residents and local business is essential.
