Woodbury – On May 22, Scott Stapp of Creed performed at the fifth annual Pink Tie event took place at Crest Hollow Country Club in Woodbury, New York. The event in its entirety was exceptional.

Scott Stapp stole the show by performing his classic hits from his multi-platinum-selling rock group Creed, which included his signature song “Higher” and his Grammy-winning “With Arms Wide open.” He also covered “Roadhouse Blues” by The Doors.
Comedian Chris Roach, best known from the sitcom Kevin Can Wait, remarked on the pink carpet, “It feels wonderful to be here.”
Idea Stream Marketing served as its marketing partner, where Dean Spinato serves as its founder and president. This Pink Tie event featured media coverage from such outlets as News 12 (Elisa DiStefano), Ingrid Dodd, and Joanne Phillips of The J-Bird Universe at The US Press Association, among many others.
