THANK YOU TO OUR PRESENTING SPONSOR

Tosco Music is proud to have CG Financial Services as the Presenting Sponsor for our 2026-2027 Season!

Jeff Casey, Partner and Senior Financial Advisor, was able to bring a group of their teammates together at Tosco Music Party from their Charlotte and Michigan offices. Here's what one of their team had to say:

"Thank you for a wonderful experience! I had a really great time at the Tosco Music Party - everyone in our CG group did! The talent of the musicians was incredible, the variety of the music was fantastic, and the singalongs were super fun!" - Jora Brummette

CG Financial Presenting Sponsor 26-27 Season


SEE WHAT'S
COMING UP

  • The music parties are an indie-music institution in Charlotte, so popular they often fill a 1,200-seat hall, with a roster of performers that has included everyone from American Idol contestants to The Avett Brothers.

  • What started 20 years ago as a jam session in John Tosco’s living room has bloomed into one of the region’s most unique regional events – and a coveted gig for unsigned artists.

  • A Tosco Music Party is a theatre in the round of sorts for acoustic musicians. It's a medium that breaks down artificial barriers between entertainers and audience.

  • Maybe you’ve never heard the new folk trio out of Chapel Hill or the dulcimer player from Appalachia. Maybe you’ll marvel over a double-necked guitar solo or a 13-year-old classical pianist. Whatever you’re seeking, this incredible, quarterly variety show will make you grateful to have John Tosco curating your musical adventure.

  • Think of Tosco Music Party as the musical equivalent of walking into Ben & Jerry's and saying: 'I'd like a spoonful of everything, please.'
