The members of King Creole have been entertaining North Texas audiences for more than two decades, today performing a special blend of '60s, '70s and '80s classic-rock chart busters, with occasional splashes of '50s and '90s hits. With a song list that spans a number of pop-music genres, audiences can never be sure what to expect next – except that the following song will be every bit as fun as the one before.
