Casino City Times reports:
This Friday and Saturday night, award-winning songwriter and
keyboardist for the legendary rock band Journey will perform live at
The Lounge at Agua Caliente Casino • Resort • Spa in Rancho Mirage.
Journey band member Jonathan Cain will play Journey favorites with the
casino's popular house band, Mischief, which is led by Cain's brother
Tommy "Mugs" Cain.
Mischief is comprised of six talented musicians whose
personalities are as lively as their backgrounds are diverse.
Separately, they have performed with the likes of Christina Aguilera,
Terri Nunn of Berlin, Van Halen's Sammy Hagar, the Divinyls and Paulina
Rubio; entertained the masses in Broadway productions including Sunset
Boulevard; and written music for feature films and network television!
Together, they are a Coachella Valley first in entertainment!
Mischief plays three shows every Thursday through Saturday night,
featuring a variety of Standards, Hits from the 70s & 80s and the
best current rock and pop. Their appearance with Jonathan Cain is
highly anticipated!
Jonathan Cain not only gained notoriety as part of the band
Journey, but he is also an accomplished musician and songwriter in his
own right. He has received two of the most prestigious BMI songwriter
awards - "Most Performed Song of the Year," for over two million or
more radio plays with songs 'Open Arms' and 'Who's Cryin' Now'.
Journey's Greatest Hits received the "Diamond Award" for sales of ten
million and the band has sold 60 million albums with a string of top
ten singles accounting for over two decades of music played on the
radio.
As a songwriter, Cain has written songs recorded by Michael
Bolton, Sammy Hagar, Kenny Rogers, the band Heart, Greg Allman, Conway
Twitty, The Oak Ridge Boys, Colin Raye, Lorrie Morgan, Maria Carey,
Australian singer Jimmy Barnes and Peter Frampton. As a producer he's
worked with Michael Bolton, Journey's guitarist Neal Schon and most
recently wrote and co-wrote most of the songs on the new Journey CD
Generations. He's also produced seven of his own solo albums - Back To
The Innocence and Anthology, his debut albums as a singer songwriter,
Piano with a View, Body Language, For A Lifetime, Namaste, Animated
Movie Love Songs and most recently Bare Bones, which are all
instrumental piano albums of smooth jazz and new age genre.
Journey will release its new album Revelation June 3rd, following
it up with a hot summer tour ticket that also includes Heart and Cheap
Trick. The tour kicks off July 9th in Denver, Colorado.
