Members of the Little River Band will be featured “LIVE at Corbeau Creek” in Minden on Sunday, Feb. 2, 2025 starting at 6 p.m.
“Tickets are going fast,” said Sara McDaniel, founder of Phillip’s Cottage. “Prices range from $75 a seat, to the VIP Experience of $549. The VIP Experience includes a two-day stay at one of my 5-Star properties at The Villas at Spanish Court, the Cottage on Fort, or the Fuller House Upper Room. Brunch at the Fuller White House on Sunday will be included, along with an exclusive Meet & Greet with the performers before the show. VIPs also get one set of a Little River Band CD and book.”
Concert-goers will be treated to stories and songs from the road, written and sung by Little River Band members. The Little River Band is a rock group formed in Melbourne, Australia in March 1975. The band achieved commercial success in both Australia and the United States. They have sold over 30 million records, with six studio albums reaching the Top 10.
Nine singles appeared in the Top 20, with “Help Is On Its Way” the only No. 1 Top Single. Ten singles reached the Top 20 on the Billboard Top 100, with “Reminiscing” their highest, reaching #3. Some of the LRB’s most popular singles also included “It’s a Long Way There,” “Lady,” “Lonesome Loser,” “Cool Change,” and “Take It Easy on Me.”
Stephanie Calvert has also volunteered to perform. Stephanie belted out “Nothin’ Gonna Stop Us Now,” and “We Built This City” during the 1980s when she was lead singer for “Starship.” On Feb. 2, she’ll join the Little River Band on stage at Corbeau Creek. Like LRB, Stephanie has a big heart for non-profits like Phillip’s Cottage and the women and children it helps.
“We don’t often get this kind of talent in Minden, and this is amazing that they are using their gifts to bless Phillip’s Cottage this way,” Sara said.
ALL proceeds from the event will benefit Phillip’s Cottage, a transitional home for women and their children who have graduated from the Louisiana Adult & Teen Challenge Program.
“Please help us provide a safe haven for those women who have worked hard to reclaim and restore their lives,” Sara commented.
All purchases are non-refundable, but tickets are transferable in the event you are unable to attend. Tickets are available at https://www.accelevents.com/e/little-river-band–concert-to-benefit-phillips-co.
Corbeau Creek is located on Hwy. 80, east of Minden.
