Audience can’t take its eyes off Frankie Valli

Innocent, nostalgic music drew nearly a full house of people from each generation reaching back to the ‘60s to see rock ’n’ roll icon Frankie Valli Saturday night at the IU Auditorium.

Frankie Valli and the Four Seasons’ first hit, “Sherry,” became a success in 1962, and Valli has not stopped singing since. Though the members of the Four Seasons are now younger versions of the original band, Valli, 75, has stayed true to his songs and his message.

“I’ve seen him before, so I knew what to expect,” freshman Katheryn Purcell said. “He sounded really good. I think he’s the cutest man alive.”

The Four Seasons roster has changed throughout the years. However, the same four singers, Landon Beard, Todd Fournier, Brian Brigham and Brandon Brigham, have been the main members of the group for the last three years, Brian Brigham said.
