Help us pack the tent! Travel Wisconsin will be making their way to the Northwoods to film a national commercial showcasing Big Top Chautauqua and we'd love the community to be there in full force!

Take a classic rock song, add Big Top Chautauqua's famed house band the Blue Canvas Orchestra, and the result is something that is sure to move an audience. Led by Molly Otis & Ed Willett, Pickin’ on Rock is a rousing night of classic rock songs interpreted in the bluegrass and alternative string stylings of the Blue Canvas Orchestra. Expect Led Zeppelin, Queen, Guns N ’Roses, Heart, The Beatles and more. You’ve heard these songs before, but not quite like this.

Featuring: Molly Otis, Ed Willett, Severin Behnen, Randy Wydra, Scott Kirby, Betty Ferris, Stevie Matier, Nori Schwenzfeier, and Harrison Olk
