Jim Messina & Orleans in Vienna

Jim Messina is an American singer, songwriter, guitarist, bassist and producer known for his work with Buffalo Springfield, Poco and Loggins & Messina. Born in 1947 in Maywood, California, he co-founded Poco before forming his partnership with Kenny Loggins. Their catalog includes “Your Mama Don’t Dance,” “Danny’s Song,” “House at Pooh Corner” and the albums Sittin’ In and Full Sail. The 2005 Sittin’ In Again tour reunited him with Kenny Loggins and included a concert recorded at the Santa Barbara Bowl. In 2010, he joined the surviving members of Buffalo Springfield for the Bridge School Benefit at Shoreline Amphitheatre; the group followed that appearance with a short reunion tour in 2011 under the Buffalo Springfield name.

Orleans is an American pop-rock band formed in Woodstock, New York, in 1972 by John Hall, Larry Hoppen and Wells Kelly. The group is known for the vocal harmonies and guitar-led soft rock of “Dance with Me,” “Still the One” and “Love Takes Time,” as well as the album Waking and Dreaming. During the 1970s, Orleans toured the United States as “Dance with Me” and “Still the One” became staples of the band’s set. After reuniting in the late 1980s, the group resumed concert work and performed in Japan. In 2013, Orleans joined the Sail Rock tour alongside Christopher Cross, Firefall and John Ford Coley.
