Rodney Strong Vineyards invites guests to their 24th annual concert series. This summer event will feature legendary musicians, a beautiful concert setting and award-winning wines.
Tonight visitors will have the opportunity to experience Chris Isaak, a singer-songwriter and actor with several gold records and notable appearances in films by David Lynch, Jonathan Demme and John Waters.
As a boy, Chris Isaak listened to records by Elvis and Roy Orbison, which were major influences. He grew up in the blue-collar town of Stockton as the son of a forklift operator. Borrowing his brother’s guitar, Isaak taught himself how to play and started writing songs as a teenager. He found early inspiration in country musicians, such as Hank Williams, who his father liked to listen to on the radio. Isaak’s third album, Heart Shaped World became a hit when director David Lynch used Isaak’s song “Wicked Game” in the film Wild at Heart. Herb Ritts’ video for the song helped make Isaak a star and sex symbol. He continues to record and act.
