The headliner for this year’s Music Fest has an impressive musical pedigree that will thrill many devotees of the band Chicago. Danny Seraphine, co-founder and original drummer for Chicago, is now fronting his new band California Transit Authority (CTA) www.ctatheband.com. The band is based in LA and is fueled by the creative passion and pure percussive power of Seraphine. CTA is all about a man, a band and a mission built on Danny's love of blazing brass, funk and searing guitars. With the 2013 release of Sacred Ground, CTA accomplishes that mission and a whole lot more. Danny co-wrote some of Chicago's biggest hits and will play them at the Music Fest, along with powerful songs from CTA's catalogue.
