Being part of this tour is truly a dream come true.”
When asked about their favorite Andy Williams songs, Jimmy fondly recalled “Almost There” as a family favorite, while Jay chose “More,” saying it always moved him deeply. Their passion for this music, combined with Charlie’s youthful energy, makes the show both a celebration of legacy and a passing of the torch.
