Simply the Best: A Tribute to the Music of Tina Turner
2025-09-20 19:30 - 21:30
How do you build the perfect performer? You would start with her voice. One that is beautiful, but strong. Mighty yet sensitive. It would be gritty, soulful, and unique. Then she would have looks that kill, and (of course) amazing hair. Her stage show would be entertaining, powerful and it would electrify the air. She would have charisma and charm. She’d perform rock, blues, soul, ballads and roof-raisers.
Well, we don’t need to build this perfect performer. She’s already been made and her name is Tina Turner!
1Pulse Entertainment presents “Simply the Best: A Tribute to the music of Tina Turner” starring Jenn Cristy (national touring performer and former backing vocalist/instrumentalist for John Mellencamp). “Simply the Best” showcases the power and love for the stage that Tina projected over a 50 year career. Jenn Cristy perfectly embodies Tina’s transformative energy and spirit from the stage.
Jenn has always felt a kinship with Tina, her music and her performing style. You’ll see why, as she dazzles in this amazing concert event. The show features hit songs such as Proud Mary, River Deep – Mountain High, What’s Love Got To Do With It, The Best, and many more. Jenn performs Tina like no other, and after you see all the great Tina songs along with an eclectic mix of other favorites, you’ll leave saying, ” That was…simply the best”.
