The concert will start at 7:30 p.m. in the Sue E. Trotter Theater at The Arts Center, 320 N. White St. Africano's genre-bending vocals shift among powerhouse arena rock, mid-1960s Motown soul and the early years of Elvis Presley. Tickets are $10 for adults and $8 for students. All proceeds benefit Athens Area Council for the Arts' arts-in-education program. For more information, call 423-745-8781 or visit www.athensartscouncil.org.
