Vini Ames & Sh-Bop Bringing Golden Oldies to Riverside Park

Vini Ames and Sh-Bop bring their golden oldies rock & roll show to East Providence on Thursday, Aug. 1. 

The show is part of the summer concert series offered by the East Providence Parks and Recreation department. It starts at 6 pm in the bandshell in Rose Larisa Memorial Park in Riverside.

Since the band formed in 1992, it has paid tribute to the "Fabulous Fifties" and "Sensational Sixties" with great music, good humor and lots of audience participation, according to the group.

Dressed in Oldies Rock & Roll style with stage setting reminiscent of the era, Vini Ames & Sh-Bop becomes a musical time machine that will transport you back to those memorable days of hot rods, poodle skirts, malt shops and good ol' rock & roll. 

These upbeat performers have shared the stage with several national acts, including The Platters, The Drifters, The Crystals, The Elegants, Danny & The Juniors, The Coasters, and The Starliters – just to name a few.

Bring your own chairs and blankets and catch a summer breeze as you enjoy rock & roll like it used to be.
