Great American To End Concert Series

The Great American Music Company will end its long-standing series of concerts saluting pre-rock-era American popular composers and performers with its Frank Sinatra tribute Sunday.

Spokesman and singer Dewey Erney said the group has become frustrated playing local restaurants rather than clubs or concert halls. Any future shows, he said, will be treated as special events when a suitable space can be found.

Tributes to the music of Cole Porter, Irving Berlin, George Gershwin, Sinatra and others had been held for years at DeMario’s Italian restaurant in Dana Point. More recently the group has been appearing at Agostino’s in Capistrano Beach, the site of Sunday’s 7:30 p.m. swan song featuring Erney, singer Stephanie Haynes, bassist Jack Prather, pianist Karen Hammack and drummer Cal Haines.
