Emerald City has shared the stage with such artists as Martina McBride, Michael McDonald, Huey Lewis and the News, Justin Timberlake, Garth Brooks, Mariah Cary, Dan Aykroyd, Sinbad, and the list goes on and on.
Emerald City’s ability to entertain is only rivaled by their extensive ability to get the audience up on the dance floor.
