Kansas City’s Medicine Cabinet – Kansas City Tip-Off

April 3rd proved to be the perfect day for the rescheduled Kansas City Tip-Off benefit concert for Kansas City’s Medicine Cabinet. The March 1st snow had kept the two-time Academy of Country Music’s Vocal Duo of the Year winners Thompson Square from their date at the Uptown Theater. Guests were treated to a delicious dinner from YaYa’s Euro Bistro, desserts from Cupcake A La Mode and Nothing Bundt Cakes and the sound stylings of a Penn Valley jazz trio.
