TEMECULA – A great lineup of diverse entertainment is coming to the Old Town Temecula Community Theater in January. A sampling includes:

SouthBound and Company

What some reviewers call "the best Lynyrd Skynyrd tribute band we've ever seen," SouthBound and Company will perform at the Old Town Temecula Community Theater on Thursday, Jan. 14 at 8 p.m.

"When it comes to classic rock bands, SouthBound and Company bring the best with their tribute show, 'Lynyrd Skynyrd & Frynds,' which includes some hits from southern rock legends like The Allman Brothers and the unforgettable Molly Hatchet," organizers said. "With unmatched professionalism and quality, this show is sure to be the top Lynyrd Skynyrd tribute band experience around."

Brittani Paiva

Offered by Temecula Presents, Brittani Paiva will perform at the Old Town Temecula Community Theater on Wednesday, Jan. 13 at 7:30 p.m.

"When Brittni was 11, she picked up the ukulele, it became her passion, and she is now affectionately referred to as the 'ukulele darling'," said organizers. "The winner of numerous awards such as most promising artist in the Na Hoku Hanohano Awards and Hawaii Music Award's Best Instrumental Album of the Year, Paiva is known for her stunning articulation and filtering many styles of music through her four-string ukulele.

The Ruth Moody Band

Temecula Presents will offer the Ruth Moody Band in concert on Friday, Jan. 15 at 8 p.m. at Old Town Temecula Community Theater.

According to Michael Bialas of the Huffington Post, "Her seductive soprano is pure joy, an irresistible force of nature that comes so effortlessly that it must be a gift from the gods," organizers said. "The fact that she excels on a variety of instruments – including banjo, piano, and ukulele – makes this classically trained musician one of the most promising artists in a field bursting at the seams with candidates."

Best known for her role as a founding member of the internationally renowned trio, The Wailin' Jennys (which previously performed on Temecula's stage in 2005), Ruth Moody is also an exceptional solo artist full of depth and grace, singing with an intimacy and honesty that is unmistakably her own.

Cello Latino Americano

On Saturday, Jan. 16, at 7:30 p.m., Temecula Presents will feature cellist Lars Hoefs in the 'Cello Latino Americano' concert.

"Known for his interpretations of the music of Villa-Lobos and other Latin American composers, cellist Lars Hoefs brings us a recital filled with music from south of the border," said organizers.
