SUMMARY:Victor Wooten & The Wooten Brothers
DESCRIPTION:The Wooten brothers’ first public performance occurred in Hawaii in 1966 and established their identity as prodigies. Since then\, Victor Wooten & the Wooten Brothers (brothers Regi\, Roy & Joseph) have racked up 10 Grammy wins\, and  26\, yes\, 26 Grammy nominations. And the youngest of the family\, Victor\, the brother who learned from all his older brothers\, has been named by Rolling Stone Magazine as one of the ten greatest bass players of all time.\n \nAs a family band\, they are second to none. The Brothers’ music bends and defines genres; amplifies centuries\, and spans continents. The Wooten Brothers began in R&B before evolving as teens into Jazz\, Jazz Fusion\, Classical and Country. Then\, they emerged in 1985 on Arista records with an album called\, “The Wootens”\, that combined Electronic\, Funk\, Soul\, Disco\, and Boogie—and offered only a sliver of the Wooten whole. The Wooten whole is all of that…and classical\, and jazz\, and country\, and Rock-and-Roll.  \nConnecting a musically deep past to musical future\, the Wooten Brothers explode genres and build bridges across genres.  Bar by bar\, in live performances and on recordings\, they provide an exhilarating ‘connects-you-to-the-center-of-the-universe’ sound.

SUMMARY:Kat Edmonson
DESCRIPTION:Ticket prices on our website reflect all-in pricing for purchases made online or by phone.  This means the price you see includes the ticket price plus MUTO’s ticket processing fee. Tickets may be purchased with no included fees in person at The Ark during box office hours. \nHave Your Merry Christmas With Me \nThis holiday season\, acclaimed vocalist Kat Edmonson returns with a dazzling new chapter in her celebrated career: the November 6\, 2026 release of her latest album\, Have Your Merry Christmas With Me\, followed by a nationwide tour beginning Thanksgiving and continuing through the end of December. \nHave Your Merry Christmas With Me by Kat Edmonson plays like the soundtrack to a classic romantic comedy—lush\, witty\, soulful\, and filled with longing\, flirtation\, and holiday warmth. Romantic bossa novas mingle with a tropical\, 1960s-cocktail-party take on “Jingle Bells\,” the swinging jazz-gospel exuberance of “Hark! The Herald Angels Swing\,” and an achingly soulful transformation of Allen Toussaint’s “It’s Raining” into “It’s Snowing.” Two beautifully crafted originals\, “Have Your Merry Christmas With Me” and “Hush! There’s a Falling Snow\,” feel instantly at home among the standards\, with the timelessness of future holiday classics.  \nBringing the music to the stage\, Kat Edmonson’s 2026 Have Your Merry Christmas With Me Holiday Tour promises an unforgettable evening of festive charm\, featuring sparkling new selections alongside beloved songs from her acclaimed catalog. After enchanting audiences year after year\, she returns with the warmth\, wit\, and effortless elegance that have made her one of today’s most distinctive jazz vocalists.  \nKat is a Songwriters Hall of Fame award-winning singer and songwriter whom The New York Times has described as having “an equal foothold in jazz\, cabaret and vintage cosmopolitanism pop.” She has appeared on Austin City Limits\, NPR’s Tiny Desk Concerts\, A Prairie Home Companion\, and The Tonight Show\, and has performed at venues and festivals including Carnegie Hall\, the Montreux Jazz Festival\, and the Blue Note in Japan. Her original songs have appeared in film\, television\, and advertising. Edmonson also appeared as a 1930s jazz singer in Woody Allen’s Café Society and made her theatrical debut in the Drama Desk Award-nominated off-Broadway production The Hang by Taylor Mac and Matt Ray. As NPR observed\, “Hearing Edmonson makes it virtually impossible to do anything but stop and listen.” \nBlending nostalgia\, celebration\, and holiday spirit\, this concert feels both classic and new\, with all the makings of a cherished seasonal tradition.
