Some of Detroit's finest rockers are getting together to celebrate local music/club promoter/rock aficionado Stirlings’ birthday. Stirling has been the driving force behind many area nightclubs throughout the years. He first started hosting modern dance parties in the '80s at the legendary dance clubs Todd's, The Leidernacht (now the City Club), The Majestic Theatre and The Warehouse. He later moved on to promote live music at The Sardine Bar, 313.jac/Jacoby's, and the park stage at Cityfest. He continues to be a strong advocate of Detroit talent by introducing new up and coming artists to local audiences. The annual party is one event that will showcase some stellar Detroit performers.
This promises to be a great night of local music. Performing will be some of Stirling's favorites. New local rockers
Jimmy Ohio & The Ultimate Lovers will headline the night, which will also feature a set by
Olympus Mons, performances by songstress
Audra Kubat, a short solo set by
Leah Diehl of
Lightning Love, songwriter
John Bardy, and a special acoustic performance by
Margaret Dollrod.

The Corktown Tavern located at
1716 Michigan Avenue in Detroit, 48216. 313-964-5103.
