Don't forget to stick around on Saturday for the John Tweedie Memorial Concert!

The Walton Porchfest committee will welcome Close To You: The Music of the Carpenters for the Saturday, June 6, 2026, John Tweedie Memorial Concert held on the Clark Companies stage, 4:30-6:30 p.m. at the Walton Veterans Plaza, 171 Delaware Street.

Close to You: The Music of The Carpenters, the longest running Carpenters' tribute in North America, is beginning their 16 Year-Anniversary Tour having played over 450 shows in 42 states selling out venues from 300 to 3000 seats. During the tour band members will be making a pit stop in Walton to perform as our 2026 Walton Porchfest closing act during the FREE John Tweedie Memorial Concert.

Karen and Richard Carpenter often kept things simple on stage, performing as just a duo. Now, the renowned Close to You: The Music of The Carpenters strips down their full show for a special unplugged evening. It’s all the music of The Carpenters that you love performed by unmatched vocalist Lisa Rock, her pianist and back-up vocalist. Dedicated to re-creating the true sound of The Carpenters, Rock and her band showcase some of the most memorable songs of the 70s including “We’ve Only Just Begun,” “Rainy Days and Mondays,” and of course “Close to You.”

In the case of a rainy day, the concert will be moved inside the Walton Theatre, 30 Gardiner Place.
