Retirement Celebration for Tom Carrico to benefit The After Dark Fund
Chopteeth is so proud and grateful to have worked with our manager Tom Carrico for nearly 20 years. He’s been a critical inspiration for our project from the beginning, and we’ve counted on his encouragement, friendship and vision every step of the way.
Please join us on Sunday, September 24 at Rosensteel Hall in Silver Spring as we celebrate Tom’s well-deserved retirement with a big night of music and love.
Musical performers will include many of the artists that Tom has managed over the years, including:

He was a booking agent for East Coast dates for Stevie Ray Vaughan & Double Trouble in the late 70’s and early 80s, prior to Vaughan's breakthrough record deal.
