Raspberry Jam: the Carole King tribute event celebrating Tapestry & Music

Come join us for a night filled with soulful tunes at TAK Music Venue! We're celebrating the legendary Carole King with our annual tribute event, Raspberry Jam. Get ready to sing along to her timeless classics and enjoy a night of music and memories. This in-person event is a must-attend for any Carole King fan, for those who have loved her music for decades or those who are just getting familiar with this multi-Grammy award winning American songwriter and performer.

SPECIAL FOR THE 2026 PROGRAM --- The Raspberry Jam Band is honoring the 55th anniversary of both albums that were released in 1971: the iconic & influential "Tapestry" as well as King's third record, "Music", which was released a mere ten months after "Tapestry". To pay homage to the rich catalogue of influential chart-topping hits contained within the "Tapestry" songlist, the tunes from that album will be performed exclusively during the second set. Don't miss out on this unforgettable evening!

To start off the event, culinary delights from Deb's Corner Foods are available for purchase! Deb returns as the official vendor for the evening, serving delicious meals and snacks to please the palates of carnivorous and vegetarian/vegan attendees alike. Deb's concessions will be available as soon as the doors open and will continue through the end of intermission or until supplies run out. The venue will also have a variety of cold beverages available for purchase, including plenty of options for adult libations at the full-service bar (with proof of ID).
