About this Event

With hits like "Listen To The Music," "What A Fool Believes" and "China Grove," the Doobie Brothers are one of the most beloved rock groups of all time. Dr. Mike Daley Presents: The Doobie Brothers Story is an entertaining lecture-concert celebrating their career and music, featuring Mike on guitar and vocals, Mike Ferfolia on bass and vocals, Adam Warner on drums and vocals, Greg Wyard on guitar and vocals and Jill Daley on piano and violin.

You'll learn about the band's formation in 1970s California, its rise to fame and the changes that led to original lead vocalist Tom Johnston's eventual replacement by gruff-voiced Michael McDonald, which took them to their greatest heights of success. The band broke up just before their biggest hit, then reformed and continue to this day. The latest in a monthly series that has included sold-out lecture-concerts on David Bowie, Billy Joel, Gordon Lightfoot, Tina Turner and the Beach Boys, Dr. Mike Daley Presents: The Doobie Brothers Story is a must-see for any music fan.

Dr. Mike Daley is a musician and musicologist known across the GTA for his lectures and performances. Mike Ferfolia (The Bee Gees Story, The Stevie Wonder Story) is an in-demand singer and bassist with a variety of bands around the GTA. Adam Warner (The Guess Who Story, The Rolling Stones Story) is an established multi-instrumentalist and music educator. Greg Wyard (The Beatles Story, The Cat Stevens and Jim Croce Story) is a popular guitarist/bassist and singer. Jill Daley (all shows) is a full-time musician at Canada's National Ballet School and, like Mike, is part of the music team at Redeemer.

Church of the Redeemer is a spacious and comfortable (cushioned chairs, not pews)1879 church with excellent sightlines and acoustics. It is conveniently located in Yorkville, close to Bay and Museum subway stations, ample parking and fine restaurants.

General admission tickets are $35.00 plus HST and processing fee. These events usually sell out, but if tickets are available at the door, they will be $50.00, cash only.
