After selling out “A Night of Joel” at the Bing Crosby Theater in Spokane, Carson Rhodes is bringing a brand new experience to The Hive with “Crossing Paths: The Songs of Billy Joel and the Artists that Influenced Him.”

The show will start at 7:30 p.m. on Saturday, May 9 at The Hive, 207 N. First Ave., in downtown Sandpoint. This will be a fully seated show.

The tribute group led by Rhodes features a host of talented musicians flawlessly recreating some of Joel’s most known hits, including iconic songs like “Piano Man,” “Uptown Girl,” “We Didn’t Start the Fire” and more.

Rhodes will lead the audience on a musical journey, sharing insights and experiences on how some of these great compositions came into existence, while also recounting direct conversations he’s had with Joel and his original band members. In addition to Joel’s songs, Rhodes and his band will perform songs from Joel’s favorite artists such as Ray Charles, The Beatles, Jimi Hendrix and more.
