Edison Foundation Hosts 16th Annual Holiday Evening Event

Beatles Cover Band, "The Return"

The 16th annual Holiday Evening event, to be held on Thursday, December 5, will feature “The Return,” a highly-regarded Beatles cover band. This event directly supports Edison’s General Scholarship Fund, which provides financial assistance to traditional and non-traditional students in support of their academic pursuits.

“The Return” has performed at numerous prestigious venues and events such as Abbey Road Studios in London, England, the 2012 Olympic Swim Trials, Hard Rock Café’s 30th anniversary celebration and more.

“The Return is not just another average Beatles tribute band. They are one of the most sought after Beatles tribute bands in the world. Those attending will not be disappointed,” said R. Christopher “Chris” Haines, Holiday Evening Chair. “I have had the opportunity to work with The Return as part of a couple of large festivals which I have chaired in the past and they are fantastic.”

Holiday Evening has previously included performances by world-renowned musician Tim Janis, Australia’s The Ten Tenors, Straight No Chaser, The Toledo Symphony Orchestra and former Tonight Show bandleader Doc Severinson.

Holiday Evening is the perfect way to kick-off the holidays and help support more than 3,500 students who attend classes at Edison annually. For further information regarding the event visit www.edisonohio.edu/holidayevening or contact Julie Slattery at jslattery@edisonohio.edu.
