Description
Each Concert at Point of the Bluff Vineyards feels like a party, with world-class musical acts, a stellar view of Keuka Lake, and local craft beverages and food.
Village People is one of the most iconic music groups in the world. Their music is part of the international songbook and has been featured in numerous motion pictures, on Broadway, and in commercials. Their 1978 hit song “Y.M.C.A” (along with its namesake dance) is played at almost every party, wedding, bar mitzvah and sporting event in the world. They've sold over 100 million records worldwide. Original founder Victor Willis returned as lead singer in 2017, just in time for the group's 40th anniversary, and they returned to the charts in 2019 with a Christmas album. The songs "Happiest Time of the Year,' and "If You Believe," both written by Willis, quickly broke into the top 20 of Billboard's Adult Contemporary chart. In 2020, YMCA was inducted into the Library of Congress National Recording Registry. The following year, the song was inducted into the Grammy Hall of Fame. The group continues to perform worldwide and is more popular now than ever.
