Chris Mann, Tom Wopat, Ryan Silverman and Dee Daniels join the impressive roster of talent for the 2013-2014 season
(June 12, 2013 – West Palm Beach, FL) Bob Lappin and The Palm Beach Pops welcome their 22nd Season with incredible talent, programming and the continuation of the world-class orchestra that continues to receive rave reviews.
Next season, The Pops will feature the following concerts:

• The Music of Whitney Houston & Friends

• Smoky Standards of the Mad Men Era with Special Guest Ryan Silverman
• The Music of Marvin Hamlisch

In addition to the already stellar season announced earlier this year, The Palm Beach Pops just added Ryan Silverman, Dee Daniels and Tom Wopat to the 2013-2014 line-up.
Chris Mann certainly shined as a finalist on The Voice, but his star has risen even higher since the hit show’s second season. In 2012, Mann signed with Faircraft/Republic, a new label formed by renowned producer/music executive Ron Fair (Christina Aguilera, Mary J. Blige). His debut full-length, Roads, introduced a whole new generation to the classical-pop genre and shot straight to No. 1 on Billboard’s Heatseekers Chart and Top 5 on Billboard’s Classical Chart. His most recent credits include singing for President Barack Obama and First Lady Michelle Obama as part of TNT’s “Christmas In Washington” special, appeared on “The Today Show,” the “Tonight Show with Jay Leno, and “NBC’s “Christmas in Rockefeller Center Special.”
He kicked off 2013 with a performance on “Conan” and his very own PBS Special helmed by award-winning producer Ken Ehrlich. Titled “A Mann For All Seasons,” the show features special guest appearances by multi-platinum artist Martina McBride. Most recently, he received outstanding reviews for his performance during the PBS Memorial Day Special. Join this new hit star as he brings his talents to the Pops stage this coming season.
With his good looks, robust baritone and Broadway star Ryan Silverman, known for his leading roles in Phantom of the Opera, Mamma Mia, It’s Complicated with Meryl Streep and Alec Baldwin, Sex and the City 2, Gossip Girl as well as many other TV and theater credits, is an all around talented singer and actor. He will bring to life the music and ambiance of the Mad Men Era alongside Bob Lappin and The Palm Beach Pops.
With a 4 octave vocal range, Dee Daniels is also an outstanding pianist and an international artist who has performed around the globe, taught music and has received rave reviews for her symphony performances – most recently her tribute to the music of Ray Charles.
Tom Wopat has a wide-ranging career from TV to Broadway to blockbuster movies and the symphony stage. The Tony nominated actor and singer was the star of The Dukes of Hazzard, a long running hit TV show, the star of Annie Get Your Gun on Broadway and, most recently, starred as the sheriff in Quentin Tarantino’s Oscar winning Django Unchained with Jamie Foxx. Join the Pops and Wopat for an amazing evening of Broadway’s best music.
