Country superstar Wynonna is bringing The Big Noise back to Tucson on Sunday, Feb. 9.
It’s her first Tucson show since she played Fox Tucson Theatre in summer 2017. And it comes after a weeklong string of West Coast concerts that kicked off her 2020 touring.
Sunday’s show starts at 7 p.m. at the Fox, 17 W. Congress St. Tickets start at $29.50 at foxtucson.com
And it comes months after she and her husband of seven years, Big Noise drummer Cactus Moser, did an acoustic residency at New York’s Café Carlyle. The pair did acoustic versions of her songs in between telling stories. Expect a little of that with an electric pulse when she plays the Fox.
In addition to her hits — “Rock Bottom,” “Can’t Nobody Love You Like I Do,” “Tell Me Why” — and a few select Judds hits from her 1980s duet run with mom Naomi (“Mama He’s Crazy,” “I Know Where I’m Going,” “Why Not Me”), Wynonna might throw in a few covers including of Burt Bacharach’s “What the World Needs Now Is Love” and Fleetwood Mac’s “Rhiannon.”
Also this week:
- Phoenix’s Roger Clyne & The Peacemakers get a little help from their Safford buds The Cole Trains on Friday, Feb. 7, when they bring their “Native Heart” show to the Rialto Theatre. It’s their 10th studio album in a 20-year career as independent artists.
Country band The Cole Trains open the all-ages show at 8 p.m. at the Rialto, 318 E. Congress St. Tickets are $25 at rialtotheatre.com.
- Micky Dolenz, the voice of the 1960s pop/TV band The Monkees, is taking the spotlight with the Tucson Symphony Orchestra this weekend. Dolenz, who was the voice and the drummer for the goofy group that started out as part of a TV sitcom in 1965, is expected to hit the highlights of the band’s career that continued on-and-off since the show’s debut. Dolenz, 74, and Michael Nesmith are the only surviving members.
He and the orchestra, under guest conductor Martin Herman, will perform some of The Monkees greatest hits including “Daydream Believer,” “I’m A Believer” and “Last Train to Clarksville.” Performances are at 7:30 p.m. Saturday, Feb. 8, and 2 p.m. Sunday, Feb. 9, at Tucson Music Hall, 260 S. Church Ave. Tickets are $31 to $79 through tucsonsymphony.org or by calling 882-8585.
