Chris Ruggiero’s Teenage Dreams and Magic Moments/ The Theater at North
Embark on a nostalgic journey with Chris Ruggiero as he lights up The Theater at North in Scranton on Saturday, April 27, 2024, at 7pm. At just 24 years old, Chris is a beacon for the golden age of rock and roll, reinvigorating the classic hits of the 50s, 60s, and 70s with vibrant new energy. If you remember songs like “Unchained Melody,” “My Cherie Amour,” “You Can’t Hurry Love” and “This Magic Moment,” you’ll relish an evening spent with Chris.
Chris Ruggiero emerged into the limelight with his captivating PBS-TV concert special, which continues to enchant viewers nationwide. His musical journey has since taken him across the country, where he infuses the iconic rock and roll genre with his charisma and distinctive flair. Sharing the stage with some of the most legendary artists in the history of rock and roll (Bobby Rydell, The Duprees, The Drifters, Darlene Love, The Cyrkle, and Peter Noone and so many more) he was inspired to carry the torch.
His dedication to the genre is evident, drawing parallels to Michael Bublé’s revival of swing music. With a staggering reach of 63 million people on Facebook last year, Chris’s influence in rekindling the love for vintage rock and roll is undeniable. Chris transforms the power of music, saying, “When I serenade audiences with a beloved love ballad and witness the spark of reminiscence in their eyes, it’s as if time stands still,” reflects Chris. “That moment of connection is pure magic. “
At the heart of Chris’s world is his family, and he extends this bond to every audience, embracing them as family. For Chris, the stage is more than a platform; it’s a home where every spotlight and microphone beckons him to share his gift. For him, every show is an opportunity to expand his family, bringing the audience closer with every note.
