Appearing locally after December tour stops throughout Florida and Minnesota, the genre-hopping talents of Belladiva perform a special New Year's Eve concert at Davenport's Rhythm City Casino Resort, offering venue guests a 2023-ending party filled with pop, R&B, country, rock ... and nothing in the way of an admission fee.

Performing a special New Year's Eve concert in Davenport, the Billboard-charting local talents of the Avey Grouws Band will play a late-afternoon concert at the Rhythm City Casino Resort Rhythm Room on December 31, demonstrating why Goldmine praised their 2021 release Tell Tale Heart for its “adept arrangements, clear confidence, and a decidedly agile approach as far as the shifts in style.”

With their most recent album Exit Strategies released this past October, the nationally known, Quad Cities-based power-pop artists of Einstein's Sister headline a December 16 concert in conjunction with the closing weekend of longtime-favorite Rock Island venue RIBCO (the Rock Island Brewing Company), the outfit's previous singles “Begin Again / Standing Still” mastered by Abbey Road Studios' Miles Showell, who also cut vinyl for Paul McCartney, The Rolling Stones, Bob Marley, Queen, The Police, and The Beatles.

One of the most delightful romantic comedies in Hollywood history will enjoy at special December 22 showing when the Rock Island venue Rozz-Tox screens The Shop Around the Corner, the 1940 Ernst Lubitsch classic that inspired 1998's Tom Hanks/Meg Ryan hit You've Got Mail, was ranked number 28 on the American Film Institute's 100 Years... 100 Passions list, and is included in Time magazine's ranking of All-Time 100 Movies.
