Yellow Brick Road

There is no other performer who looks and sounds so much like Elton John, nor any tribute act that provides the experience of being at an Elton John concert the way Gerald Brann and Yellow Brick Road do.

Artful Impact: Benefiting Chester County OIC

Brann not only bears an uncanny resemblance to the international superstar — complete with gap-toothed smile and many of his mannerisms — but recreates Elton John’s vocals and playing to a tee.
To capture the essence of the piano man, Brann dresses in replica costumes and wears Elton’s trademark outrageous glasses. A trained jazz pianist, Brann has been a lifelong Elton John fan, and his admiration for and love of his music comes shining through as he plays one hit after another with remarkable likeness to the pop music icon. Brann and his talented five-piece band evoke audience participation throughout the entire show — whether singing along to “Rocket Man” and “Your Song,” swaying to “Candle in the Wind,” or hopping and bopping to “Crocodile Rock.”
Uptown! Knauer Performing Arts Center is proud to introduce Artful Impact, an innovative program designed to blend the power of the arts with philanthropy. Through strategic partnerships with nonprofit organizations, Artful Impact sets aside a portion of tickets for select events where each ticket includes both the cost of admission and a donation to the partnered nonprofit.
When you purchase an Artful Impact ticket, you’re not just securing your seat for an unforgettable performance—you’re also supporting a cause that makes a difference. In addition to the performance, ticket holders are invited to an exclusive pre-show reception featuring complimentary food, a cash bar, and an opportunity to learn more about the partner organization. The reception often includes silent auctions and other fundraising activities to further support the cause.
Artful Impact is more than just a night at the theater; it’s a chance to engage with the community, support meaningful causes, and experience the arts in a whole new way. Join us in making an impact, one performance at a time.
