Thank you! Bill & Dani
To answer your question: it isn't likely you'll find one in golf-cart distance to the Villages, and most people who are members of this forum wouldn't likely know of anything close to what you're looking for in surrounding towns/counties.

The reason for this is - the vast majority of members of this forum are over 60, and most of the rest of us are over 50. We didn't grow up with those bands, we never danced to those bands, the local radio station doesn't play their songs.

HOWEVER - Jonny Lang isn't exactly contemporary, nor has anyone ever accused him of being hip-hop. Not sure why you included him.

This part of Florida is mostly older folks whose most recent foray into "modern" music is the disco era of the late 1970's into the 1980's.
