Description

Start your week at Oasis with coffee and treats, followed by live music and the story behind it.  Oasis Musical Mondays are underwritten by the Robin Fields Memorial Fund.

From 1958 to 1964, New York’s Brill Building became the new hub of professionally written pop music. Numerous teams of talented young songwriters created an astounding number of hit tunes for performers such as the Shirelles and the Drifters. We’ll take a close look at the background of some of the songwriters such as Carole King and Gerry Goffin to see what made them so successful. Then, we’ll perform some of their best songs for you.
