Soundhouse Artists Join Hollywood star Zachary Levi at Operation Smile Gala

On April 6, 2024, Caleb Chapman and his internationally acclaimed Crescent Super Band took the stage alongside actor Zachary Levi at the 12th Annual Operation Smile Celebrity Ski & Smile Challenge in Park City, Utah. The event raised over $500,000 to fund cleft surgery and care for children around the world.

The band’s invitation to perform came as a result of Chapman’s role as Levi’s music director for his American Songbook concerts, a collaboration that led to a powerful night of music, philanthropy, and inspiration.

Held at the stunning St. Regis Deer Valley, the event brought together celebrities, Olympic athletes, and donors for a day of ski racing, followed by a gala dinner and live entertainment.

The evening concluded with an exclusive auction, a heartfelt awards presentation honoring the Griswold family with the Founders Circle Award, and an electrifying performance from Chapman’s Crescent Super Band—an ensemble comprised of Utah’s top young jazz musicians.

Sharing the stage with Levi, the band delivered a high-energy set that captured the spirit of the evening and showcased the transformative power of music in service of a cause.

“It was an unforgettable night,” Chapman said. “To see our students performing at this level, and to be part of something that truly changes lives, is what Soundhouse is all about.”
