Alissa Musto is an award-winning singer, pianist, and former Miss America finalist who performs on cruise ships and in piano bars all over the world. On Sunday, January 12, she’ll bring her crowd-pleasing “Piano Ma’am Sing-Along” to the El Paso Community Foundation Jewel Box Series at the Philanthropy Theatre at 2:30 pm.
General admission tickets are $15, on sale at the Plaza Theatre Box Office (no service fees) and Ticketmaster (with service fees).
“I’ll be playing fun sing-along classics like Don’t Stop Believin’, Great Balls of Fire and Sweet Caroline,” said Alissa, a newly minted El Pasoan who represented her home state of Massachusetts in the 2017 Miss America pageant. In addition to playing some of her favorites, Alissa also will take requests from the audience, turning the Philanthropy Theatre into a piano bar (minus the alcohol) for one afternoon.
The Harvard grad also models, acts and has appeared on reality TV, but music and performing are in her blood. “I grew up in a family of professional musicians and started playing the piano at 4 years old. I performed throughout my entire childhood and by the time I was in high school, was playing local gigs every weekend,” she wrote on her Instagram page. She just completed a 16-city tour with The Prophecy Show.
