The band is known for the most played song in radio history, You’ve Lost That Lovin’ Feelin’. The Rock and Roll Hall of Fame duo of Bill Medley and Bobby Hatfield topped the charts in four decades. After Bobby’s death in 2003, Bill Medley continued to perform to sold-out crowds around the world, but fans and friends pleaded with him to keep The Righteous Brothers alive.

No one could ever take Bobby’s place, but when I caught Bucky Heard’ s show it all came together – I found the right guy to help me recreate the magic,” Medley says.

Bucky Heard is one of the most popular and versatile performers in America, headlining countless shows in major venues. Heard says teaming with Bill Medley in The Righteous Brothers has been a wonderful gift.

On Wednesday, October 18, Los Lobos will hit the stage at 7:30 p.m.

Los Lobos is comprised of David Hidalgo, Louie Perez, Cesar Rosas, Conrad Lozano and Steve Berlin. They are Grammy winning East L.A. legends and 2016 Rock and Roll Hall of Fame nominees. Los Lobos’ music is influenced by rock and roll, Tex-Mex, country, zydeco, folk, R&B, blues, and more. They gained recognition in 1987, when their cover  of La Bamba topped the charts.

Tickets for both performances go on sale July 7th at 10 a.m. at capefearstage.com and at 2 p.m. in person at Ticket Central at the Wilson Center or by phone at 910-362-7999.
