brand new Promo-Documentary VIdeo - See why there almost wasn't a 2nd show!
Our History
Making it's debut in June of 2014, the Six String Society almost didn't have a second show. Despite the enthusiasm from the audience, there was just one small problem; only 35 people came to see the show! However, after several months of reflection, show creator Kenneth Rexrode decided to give it another shot. Fortunately, things improved the second time around with almost 180 people in attendance at the Carlsbad Village Theatre. From there, the legendary Belly Up Tavern in Solana Beach, Ca. booked the show in early 2015. This turned out to be a golden opportunity and became the catalyst for the show's upward trajectory over the next 4 years.
This one of a kind music theater production celebrates both theater & music in this one of a kind production. Each show's theme is unique while mixing theater, multi-media with some of the greatest performers in Southern California and beyond.
The show is commonly hosted by the one and only Mr. Gregory Page. He's clever, witty, and welcomes the diverse group of musicians into his 'Living Room." Every show has a story line while the show's rotating cast shares their stories as the evening unfolds. Musical genres have included blues, jazz, country, gypsy jazz, bluegrass, rock and roll, soul, gospel, and even Zydeco. The size of the casts range between 12-25 depending on the theme of the show. The 5 most popular versions have been Christmas in Paris, Take a trip to the Big Easy, the '27 Club', A trip to the Tiki Hut, and our Gospel Revival edition.
Whether you're in Paris, New Orleans, Greenwich Village, or even a Tiki hut it's always a good time in Gregory Page's "Living Room."
In just 4+ years, this San Diego based production has swiftly taken Southern California and Nevada by storm. The show has headlined at the historic Belly Up 10 times since early 2015. This legendary venue has been a launching pad and destination for national and international acts including the Rolling Stones, Foo Fighters, Jimmy Buffet and Lady Gaga.
Moving forward the show will continue to take the show on the road to concert halls, large casino showrooms, and performing art centers throughout the world.
We're absolutely blessed to continually sell out shows almost every time! This included our 2018 Christmas show, our Jan. 2019 Back to Paris production, our 3rd Annual Mardi Gras cruise in March and most recently our sold out 27 Club show in Oceanside, Ca. Our fans and music community in San Diego has been amazing as we gear up for our summer season which will include 5 nights at the Riverside Resort & Casino in Laughlin, Nv. in early June, and other soon to be announced shows. We're also so excited for our 2nd annual Haunted Halloween cruise on Mission Bay on Oct. 12th!
The first bow in June of 2014
We're currently booking additional dates later in 2019 that may include a mid western tour and several other very exciting opportunities. and very proud of our 5 very well received '27 Club' shows at the beautiful Riverside Resort and Casino in Laughlin, Nv. in the spring of 2018. All total in 2018, we performed 20 times. A far cry from our very humble roots back in 2014.
Despite all of the great videos and pictures it's still not easy to really comprehend the Six String Society until U see it live. There has never been anything quite like it. It's fun, theatrical style coupled with some of the greatest musicians in the world make this a truly unique musical experience.
