What better way to cap off a yearlong celebration than with incredible music.
The Jewish Cincinnati Bicentennial wraps up a year of events and programs in the community with a concertn on on Saturday, Oct. 15 at the Andrew J Brady Music Center.
Walk the Moon and Trombone Shorty & Orleans Avenue headline the concert, with special guest Lawrence for “Legacy: A Concert for Cincinnati.”
“Our objectives for this Bicentennial have always been to inspired, elevate, and connect,” said co-chair Kim Heiman. “Through the Jewish Federation of Cincinnati, the Jewish Foundation of Cincinnati, and with help from numerous sponsors and partners, we have helped create more than 50 events, exhibitions, and experiences since September of 2021. More than 25,000 people have commemorated this milestone with us. We like to say that this concert is one night, 200 years in the making!”

Hailing from Cincinnati, Walk the Moon catapulted to stardom in 2015 when their hit single “Shut Up and Dance” became a multi-platinum global smash that peaked at No. 1 on the Alternative, Hot AC, AC charts, No. 4 on the Billboard Hot 100, and went to No. 2 at Top 40 radio.
Grammy-nominated NOLA icon Trombone Shorty has released four chart-topping studio albums since 2010. He has played Coachella, Bonnaroo, Lollapalooza, Newport Folk, Newport Jazz, and nearly every other major festival, and has performed five times at the White House. He launched the Trombone Shorty Foundation to support youth music education and received the prestigious Caldecott Honor for his first children’s book.
Clyde and Gracie Lawrence have been writing songs and listening to countless Stevie Wonder, Randy Newman, and Aretha Franklin records in their family’s New York City apartment since they were children. After years of playing together, they officially created Lawrence, an eight-piece soul-pop band, that has since gained a devoted following for its high-energy, keyboard-driven sound, which features tight, energetic horns and explosive lead vocals.
“We have highlighted the contributions of the Jewish community over the last 200 years through a variety of exhibits, performances, and events,” continued Jewish Federation of Cincinnati CEO Danielle V. Minson, “and like so many in this city, we started out as immigrants. But we found common ground with our fellow Cincinnatians in every facet of life, enriching one another’s culture and ensuring connections that bind us today and give us reason to celebrate, along with hope for another 200 years of growing stronger together. What better way to mark such a tremendous anniversary, than by dancing and singing along with these outstanding artists during one of the most exciting weekends of the year? We can’t wait for everyone to share this night with us.”
