Empire Produces The New Cars Featuring Todd Rundgren for a Very Special 50th Birthday

A 50th birthday party only comes once in a lifetime, so when a highly accomplished investment banker and New York socialite threw his half-century soiree, Empire was called upon to make it an unforgettable night. Empire's task was to deliver a concert act that would get the Boomer-age crowd dancing with a string of upbeat and recognizable hits. Seeking something fresh, Empire secured The New Cars featuring Todd Rundgren -- before the act had even played their first public/ticketed show! The band performed on a dazzling stage designed by Empire to seamlessly blend with the exquisite, existing decor of Four Seasons restaurant, which is not designed for live performances.

As is often the case, Empire worked with the venue to find solutions to the many challenges of presenting a major headliner in a small space including power, lighting, audio considerations, etc. The New Cars, which features members of the original Cars, played the hits one after the other including "Just What I Needed," "You Might Think," "Drive" and many others and the high-spirited crowd danced the night away.

Empire is a leading producer of social and personal events for discernng clients worldwide.
