SUMMARY:Collin Raye - LIVESTREAM CONCERT FROM STAGE
DESCRIPTION:Collin Raye\n#100Daysfor100Years Live Streaming Benefit Concert\nFrom the stage of the historic Peoples Bank Theatre! \nSaturday\, June 27th\, 2020 @ 8PM \nWatch here: https://www.facebook.com/peoplesbanktheatre/live \n\nBorn Floyd Elliot Wray on August 22\, 1960 in De Queen\, Arkansas\, country artist Collin Raye was one of the true hit makers of the 1990’s. Collin still continues to crank out soulful\, heartfelt material with the honesty and richness that is signature to his vocals alone. With 24 top ten records\, 16 #1 hits\, and having been a 10 time male vocalist of the year nominee (5 CMA and 5 ACM)\, this truly electrifying performer of his era remains one of the great voices of our time. \nCollin Raye is nothing if not passionate. His soulful delivery has set country standards in such searing ballads as “Love\, Me\,” “In This Life\,” “Not That Different” and “If I were you”. Always an energizing showman\, he has also blazed through such vivid rockers as “My Kind of Girl\,” “That’s My Story\,” “I Can Still Feel You” and “I Want You Bad.” \nCollin shot to fame with “Love\, Me” in 1991. Listeners were so moved by this golden and pure voice that this song set the cornerstone for a career built on meaningful and emotional songs that have often been used for weddings\, anniversaries\, memorial services and funerals. When “Little Rock”\, an anthem for those struggling with addiction recovery\, hit the chart in 1994\, its video led to over 100\,000 phone calls to Alcoholics Anonymous from folks seeking help in their addictions. “Not That Different” was a song that pleaded for tolerance. “In This Life” became a wedding favorite\, and “I Think About You” won awards for its song and video which exposed the exploitation of women and children. \nCollin Raye has consistently used his stardom to advance social causes. Among the organizations he has supported are Boys Town\, First Steps\, Al-Anon\, Special Olympics\, Country Cares About AIDS\, Catholic Relief Services\, Parade of Pennies\, Vanderbilt Children’s Hospital\, The Tennessee Task Force Against Domestic Violence\, The Emily Harrison Foundation\, Childhelp USA\, Silent Witness National Initiative\, Easter Seals\, The Life and Hope Network\, and Make a Difference Day. It came as no surprise when in 2001 at the Country Radio Seminar\, Clint Black presented Collin Raye with the organization’s Humanitarian of the Year award in recognition of Collin’s issue-oriented music and his tireless charity work. \nThe man who has topped the charts with such great songs as “On the Verge\,” “One Boy\, One Girl\,” “What the Heart Wants\,” “Every Second”\, “That Was a River”\, “Anyone Else”\, and “If I were you” continues to touch hearts across the globe in both traditional and new ways . Collin Raye’s new outreach is very personal. In 2010\, after the loss of his precious 10 year old grandchild\, Haley\, Collin and his daughter Britanny (Haley’s mother) established The Haley Bell Blessed Chair Foundation to honor her memory. The Foundation supports and assists families of the cognitively and physically disabled with a primary emphasis on supplying wheelchairs and other necessary medical equipment to elevate the quality of life for the disabled family member in need. Collin wrote a very special song for Haley called\, “She’s with me”\, which carries a powerful message for families of special needs children. Additionally\, in 2011 Collin released his first inspirational album\, His Love Remains\, which quickly shot to #1 on Amazon for inspirational and religious music. In 2013\, Collin released his latest album\, “Still on the Line“\, which is a tribute album to his longtime friend and country music legend\, Glen Campbell\, who continues to battle Alzheimer’s Disease. The album\, featuring Ricky Skaggs and Billy Dean\, includes classic Glen Campbell hits. Collin continues to perform his traditional country music across America and abroad and has added Christian and Catholic concerts to his tour schedule as well. His autobiography\, A Voice Undefeated\, was released April 2014. He currently resides in Nashville\, TN with his daughter\, Britanny and granddaughter\, Mattie.

SUMMARY:John Walsh - LIVESTREAM CONCERT FROM STAGE
DESCRIPTION:John Walsh\n#100Daysfor100Years Live Streaming Benefit Concert\nFrom the stage of the historic Peoples Bank Theatre! \nSaturday\, June 13th\,  2020 @ 8PM \nWatch here: https://www.facebook.com/peoplesbanktheatre/live \n  \nJohn Walsh\nBorn in North Tonawanda\, New York\, John was raised from a young age in Marietta\, Ohio; where he began playing guitar and writing songs at age 11 in 1974.  He cut his musical teeth on the great Singer/Songwriters of the 1960’s & 1970’s. From those early days\, Walsh continually refined his skills and now has over four decades of musicianship and songwriting experience under his belt. \nHis special talent for lyrical depth coupled with an oft-times off-the-beaten-path style of chord progression and song structure renders unique\, listenable and memorable songs. His songs have been described as “intensely personal\,” “he sang what I wanted to say…” and\, “the lyrics read like a painting…” Walsh is also an accomplished guitarist and vocalist blessed with a very listenable tonal range. \nOver the years\, Walsh has written scores of songs and has performed both as a soloist and in a variety of bands all over the United States. John has had the opportunity to play on the same stage with notables such as Jason Isbell\, Lucy Kaplansky\, Tim O’Brien\, Dennis DeYoung\, Amanda Shires\, Larry Groce\, Todd Burge and Larkin Poe. He has released nine albums (as a soloist\, with The Fields of Gettysburg ensemble\, and with George’s Attic and The Fossils). \nAfter graduating from Salem College (Salem\, WV) in 1986\, John became an officer in the U.S. Air Force.  He and his wife\, Darlene\, married in 1987 and spent the next ten years living west of the Mississippi\, mostly while John served in the USAF.  They have lived in California\, Wyoming\, Texas\, Nevada and Iowa.  John also served a short tour in Saudi Arabia during Operation Southern Watch in 1995.  After separating from the USAF in 1996\, the Walsh’s ultimately settled back in the Mid-Ohio Valley at Vienna\, West Virginia.  John and Darlene have lived in Vienna\, West Virginia\, since 1996; and have two adult daughters\, Emily and Caroline. \nJohn became immediately active in the local music scene after relocating to Vienna.  In addition to playing live regularly\, Walsh has recorded his music extensively.  He served as a board member of the West Virginia Music Hall of Fame; and\, on the Colony Theater Hippodrome Restoration board (now the Peoples Bank Theatre in Marietta\, Ohio).  Walsh was instrumental in the development and opening of The Adelphia Music Hall\, now a premier live music venue in Marietta. \nIn 2013\, John released The Fields of Gettysburg to coincide with the sesquicentennial anniversary of the Battle of Gettysburg.  John’s all original song cycle brought real historical characters to life\, enabling the listener to get to know people of the day on a personal level.  The record\, co-produced by Parkersburg singer/songwriter\, Todd Burge\, brought together an impressive ensemble of musicians\, including Mountain Stage’s Larry Groce and Michael Lipton\, two-time Grammy winner Tim O’Brien\, Jessica Baldwin\, Colton Pack and Justin Arthur.  Met with wide critical acclaim\, The Fields of Gettysburg was featured on NPR’s Mountain Stage and at The Gettysburg National Park’s Museum Gift Store.  The album is currently available at Tamarack’s “The Best of West Virginia.” \nWriting and performing music is John’s passion.  His acoustic sets are a blend of Walsh original music\, the classic singer/songwriter songs of the 1960s & 1970s\, as well as new Americana.  John’s show provides an easy and inviting vibe that promises an enjoyable\, relaxing musical experience. \n  \nThank you for your continuous support of the Peoples Bank Theatre. Please take care of yourselves\, your families\, your neighbors\, and your communities. \n  \nThank you to our Headlining Sponsor\, Galley Enterprises!

SUMMARY:The Oak Ridge Boys
DESCRIPTION:Theirs is one of the most distinctive and recognizable sounds in the music industry. The four-part harmonies and upbeat songs of The Oak Ridge Boys have spawned dozens of Country hits and a Number One Pop smash\, earned them Grammy\, Dove\, CMA\, and ACM awards and garnered a host of other industry and fan accolades. Every time they step before an audience\, the Oaks bring four decades of charted singles\, and 50 years of tradition\, to a stage show widely acknowledged as among the most exciting anywhere. And each remains as enthusiastic about the process as they have ever been. “When I go on stage\, I get the same feeling I had the first time I sang with The Oak Ridge Boys\,” says lead singer Duane Allen. “This is the only job I’ve ever wanted to have.” “Like everyone else in the group\,” adds bass singer extraordinaire\, Richard Sterban\, “I was a fan of the Oaks before I became a member. I’m still a fan of the group today. Being in The Oak Ridge Boys is the fulfillment of a lifelong dream.” The two\, along with tenor Joe Bonsall and baritone William Lee Golden\, comprise one of Country’s truly legendary acts. Their string of hits includes the Country-Pop chart-topper Elvira\, as well as Bobbie Sue\, Dream On\, Thank God For Kids\, American Made\, I Guess It Never Hurts To Hurt Sometimes\, Fancy Free\, Gonna Take A Lot Of River and many others. In 2009\, they covered a White Stripes song\, receiving accolades from Rock reviewers. In 2011\, they rerecorded a thirtieth anniversary version of Elvira for a Cracker Barrel Old Country Store project. \nThe group has scored 12 gold\, three platinum\, and one double platinum album—plus one double platinum single—and had more than a dozen national Number One singles and over 30 Top Ten hits. \nGospel Music Roots \nThe Oaks represent a tradition that extends back to World War II. The original group\, based in Knoxville\, Tennessee\, began performing Country and Gospel music in nearby Oak Ridge where the atomic bomb was being developed. They called themselves the Oak Ridge Quartet\, and they began regular Grand Ole Opry appearances in the fall of ‘45. In the mid-fifties\, they were featured in Time magazine as one of the top drawing Gospel groups in the nation. By the late ‘60s\, with more than 30 members having come and gone\, they had a lineup that included Duane Allen\, William Lee Golden\, Noel Fox\, and Willie Wynn. Among the Oaks’ many acquaintances in the Gospel field were Bonsall\, a streetwise Philadelphia kid who embraced Gospel music; and Sterban\, who was singing in quartets and holding down a job as a men’s clothing salesman. Both admired the distinctive\, highly popular Oaks. “They were the most innovative quartet in Gospel music\,” says Bonsall. “They performed Gospel with a Rock approach\, had a full band\, wore bell-bottom pants and grew their hair long…things unheard of at the time.” The four became friends\, and when the Oaks needed a bass and tenor in ‘72 and ’73\, respectively\, Sterban and Bonsall got the calls. For a while\, the group remained at the pinnacle of the Gospel music circuit. It was there they refined the strengths that would soon make them an across-the-board attraction. “We did a lot of package shows\,” says Bonsall. “There was an incredible amount of competition. You had to blow people away to sell records and get invited back.” Their Gospel sound had a distinct Pop edge to it and\, although it made for excitement and crowd appeal\, it also ruffled purist feathers and left promoters unsure about the Oaks’ direction. Then in 1975\, the Oaks were asked to open a number of dates for Roy Clark. Clark’s manager\, Jim Halsey\, was impressed by their abilities. “He came backstage and told us we were three-and-a-half minutes (meaning one hit record) away from being a major act\,” says Bonsall. “He said we had one of the most dynamic stage shows he’d ever seen but that we had to start singing Country songs.” They took his advice and the result was a breakthrough. “Those who came to Country music with or after the New Traditionalists of the mid-eighties cannot possibly imagine the impact the Oaks had in 1977\, when they lit up the sky from horizon to horizon with Y’All Come Back Saloon\,” wrote Billboard’s Ed Morris. He added\, “…the vocal intensity the group brought to it instantly enriched and enlivened the perilously staid Country format. These guys were exciting.” \nThe Oaks branch out \nTheir career has spanned not only decades\, but also formats. In 1977\, Paul Simon tapped the Oaks to sing backup for his hit Slip Slidin’ Away\, and they went on to record with George Jones\, Brenda Lee\, Johnny Cash\, Roy Rogers\, Billy Ray Cyrus\, Bill Monroe\, Ray Charles and even Shooter Jennings\, the son of their old friend Waylon Jennings and Jessi Colter. Most recently\, the group recorded a duet with Merle Haggard for their 2015 Rock of Ages hymns and Gospel favorites album.

Taste of Country picked it as a Critics Pick saying\, “It takes a fraction of a second to know Easton Corbin is on to something different with ‘A Girl Like You.’”

SUMMARY:Aaron Tippin
DESCRIPTION:Proceeds from this concert will benefit Washington County foster children & foster parents.  With Opening Artists-Steve & Bev Pottmeyer.\nPeoples Bank Theatre welcomes Aaron Tippin – who marks his silver anniversary as a recording artist this year. When Tippin began recording\, Clint Black was on top of the charts\, along with the Judds and Keith Whitley. His first single\, “You’ve Got To Stand For Something\,” with its message of standing up for one’s personal beliefs\, became popular as an anthem for soldiers fighting in the Gulf War. After its release in 1991\, it hit the Billboard Country Singles chart – eventually peaking at # 6. He built his brand on songs that touched a nerve with his blue-collar audience with a sound that was definitely Country. In the past decade\, Tippin has recorded several musically diverse projects – including a well received 2009 truck driving album\, In Overdrive. Several of Tippin’s songs\, such as “Workin’ Man’s Ph.D”\, are anthems that address the working class and are often patriotic\, though occasionally\, Tippin also records love  ballads\, such as “That’s as Close as I’ll Get to Loving You”. \n  \n \nSome of Tippin’s other hits include: “Kiss This”\, “I Wouldn’t Have It Any Other Way”\, “My Blue Angel”\, “For You I Will”\, and “Where the Stars and Stripes and the Eagle Fly”. The Aaron Tippin 25th Anniversary Celebration promises to be an unforgettable year of music and fun – After all\, he ‘wouldn’t have it any other way\,’ would he? \nDoors open an hour before the show. \nThe Washington County Foster Families Foundation’s Mission:\n“Our vision for this benefit concert is to assist foster parents by providing funding to be used for normal childhood activities not covered by county funds\, in hopes of enhancing these children’s lives. Foster/adoptive caregivers are concerned individuals who are dedicated to providing the needs of Washington County’s children whose lives have been disrupted due to abuse and neglect. They offer food\, housing\, guidance\, acceptance\, understanding\, and support for children who are unable to stay with their families. Without these committed individuals\, abused and neglected children would not have a safe place to call home.”

SUMMARY:Scotty McCreery
DESCRIPTION:With Special Guest Dylan Brady\nPeoples Bank Theatre welcomes Scotty McCreery back to our stage! McCreery has become one of country music’s hottest stars with more than 3 million albums sold and two recent back-to-back No. 1 Platinum-certified hits: “Five More Minutes” and “This is It.” Those songs\, along with his current single “In Between\,” are from his album Seasons Change\, as is his song “Barefootin’\,” which hit No. 1 on the Beach Music Top 40 Chart. McCreery co-wrote all 11 songs on the album\, a first for him. \n \nMcCreery recently celebrated his first wedding anniversary with his wife Gabi\, his high school sweetheart whom he met on the first day of kindergarten. Their engagement was the subject of his song “This is It” and the music video was filmed at their wedding in the mountains of North Carolina. The couple recently adopted a yellow Labrador named Moose.  When not at home with his wife and puppy\, the singer/songwriter can be found performing concerts to packed crowds across the country.  He will embark on his first shows in the United Kingdom and Germany later this year.  After becoming a national sensation by winning “American Idol\,” McCreery went on to become an ACM\, BMI\, Carolina Beach Music\, CMT\, and NSAI Award winner. He has earned both a Platinum and Gold album\, one Gold and five Platinum singles\, and authored the book Go Big or Go Home: The Journey Toward the Dream. \n  \n \n  \nDylan Brady \nSinger-songwriter Dylan Brady has a sound that is back to the future. While maintaining the live instrumentation and storytelling integrity of early country\, his music drips with new-age soaring melodies and pop breakdowns. \nA New York native\, Dylan Brady transplanted to Nashville\, TN in 2016. He has since seen success including opening for Zac Brown Band\, collaborating with Joe Don Rooney of Rascal Flatts and cutting a track written by Shay Mooney of Dan + Shay. He has also represented ASCAP at CMA Fest and has co-written with Ido Zmishlany (Shawn Mendes) & Mike Campbell (Dierks Bentley\, Daya\, Great Big World) as well as performing on Grace VanderWaal ‘s album Just the Beginning. Diagnosed with Tourettes at the age of 13\, Dylan found surprising relief from the neurobiological disorder’s symptoms when he would play music. His drive to help young kids feel included despite their differences caught the eye of Disney channel. Dylan was later featured on the series Make Your Mark and debuted his first song on Radio Disney. \nHe’s since emerged beyond his Disney Channel days and is coming into his own\, crafting an addictive style of country music. Inspired by his mother’s southern upbringing\, his influences growing up included Rascal Flatts\, Tim McGraw\, and Billy Currington; later growing to love Ed Sheeran\, Bruno Mars and Jason Mraz it is no wonder his music is an interesting blend of pop and country. \nhttps://www.dylancbrady.com/ \n \n

SUMMARY:Jon Anderson of YES
DESCRIPTION:JON ANDERSON OF YES! \nA full retrospective of Anderson’s hits from YES\, Jon & Vangelis\, his solo career\, and music from his new album “1000 Hands.” with special guests The Paul Green Rock Academy at 7:30 \nhttps://youtu.be/OiQUeJWyoK8 \nJon Anderson is undoubtedly one of the most recognizable voices in progressive rock as the lead vocalist and creative force behind Yes. Anderson was the author and a major creative influence behind the ground-breaking album “Fragile” as well as the series of epic\, complex pieces such as “Awaken”\, “Gates of Delirium” and especially “Close to the Edge” which were central to the band’s success. Additionally\, Anderson co-authored the group’s biggest hits\, including “I’ve Seen All Good People”\, “Roundabout”\, and “Owner Of A Lonely Heart”. If you asked Jon\, he would say that he loves the adventure in making music\, as evidenced in 50 years of success in the music business\, working not only with many variations of Yes\, but also with very successful collaborations with Vangelis and Kitaro\, and more recently with Roine Stolt and Jean-Luc Ponty. His collaboration with Vangelis produced a number of hit records\, including “Friends of Mr Cairo” which was groundbreaking in its use of narrative voiceover\, creating a phenomena that was copied by many artists and producers\, most notably Michael Jackson and Quincy Jones with “Thriller”. As Jon would say\, “We all copy each others musical dreams\, it’s the cross-pollenation of music that keeps the world spinning around”. \n \nIn the mid 70s he created a pure solo album\, in every sense of the word: performing all the music\, playing every instrument\, writing a storyline\, and of course singing all the vocals in the critically acclaimed “Olias of Sunhillow”… a milestone in recording and adventurous creativity. You only need to look at his output of solo albums over the years to see how inventive his life in music has been\, from “Animation” to “Song of Seven”\, “Three Ships” to “Toltec”\, “City of Angels” to “The More You Know”\, to name just a few. All of these albums marked his own progression and adventure through music…leading up to 2009 following his near death\, the release of the life affirming album “Survival and Other Stories”. \nIn 2015\, Jon partnered with his dear friend\, world renowned jazz violinist Jean Luc Ponty\, creating a wonderful fusion of jazz and progressive rock in the album “Better Late than Never”. In 2016\, Jon joined forces with well known prog rock guitarist and producer Roine Stolt\, to create “Invention of Knowledge”\, an album with reached great acclaim with critics and fans alike. In 2017 Jon reformed YES with former band members Trevor Rabin and Rick Wakeman … YES Featuring ARW has toured the world to rave reviews and released “Live At The Apollo” CD/DVD in September 2018. \nhttps://youtu.be/HekdjPayAvk \nNever to stand still musically\, he is currently releasing an album he started 28 years ago\, now called “1\,000 Hands” a reference to the fact that numerous guest musicians perform on the album\, including Ian Anderson\, Billy Cobham\, Jean Luc Ponty\, Chick Corea\, Zap Momma\, Chris Squire\, Alan White\, Steve Howe and many more. This album produced by his friend Michael Franklin really speaks to the power of a musical life still in the throes of a fervent artistic endeavor\, always wanting new experiences in music\, always wanting to surprise the listener. The album was released in March 2019. \nFinally\, in Jon’s words: “Music is our spiritual connection to the soul\, that’s why people all over the world connect to Music and to each other through Music”. \nVIP Meet & Greet Packages Available\nAdd a VIP Meet & Greet package to your ticket for $125 per person and meet Jon Anderson before the concert! Select “VIP” option  when ordering your ticket or contact the box office at 740-371-5152. \n-Pre-Show Meet & Greet at 7:00 p.m.\n-Photo Op\n-Poster\n-Tour Laminate \nhttps://youtu.be/4JqYFP5UUp8 \nJon Anderson will be appearing after special guest\, the nationally acclaimed Paul Green Rock Academy\, which will be taking the stage at 7:30.

SUMMARY:Mountain Stage
DESCRIPTION:Featuring Charlie Hunter & Lucy Woodward\,\nJohn Paul White\,\nMolly Tuttle\,\nCharley Crockett\,\n& Jeff Black\nMountain Stage returns to Marietta\, Ohio! \nFor more than 30 years\, Mountain Stage with Larry Groce has been the home of live music on public radio. Produced by West Virginia Public broadcasting and distributed by NPR Music\, each two-hour episode of Mountain Stage can be heard every week on more than 200 stations across America\, and around the world via NPR Music and mountainstage.org. Recorded in front of a live audience\, Mountain Stage features performances from seasoned legends and emerging stars in genres ranging from folk\, blues\, and country; to indie rock\, synth pop\, world music\, alternative\, and beyond. \nCharlie Hunter & Lucy Woodward\n\n\n\n \nAn exhilarating blast of blues\, soul and funk\, Music!Music!Music! marks the recorded debut of the musical partnership between guitarist Charlie Hunter and vocalist Lucy Woodward. \nThe duo first performed together in January 2018\, when Woodward — fresh off supporting her fourth solo album\, 2016’s Til They Bang on the Door — joined forces with Hunter as a last- minute fill-in on a tour he’d originally booked with Mexican singer-songwriter Silvana Estrada (whose visa application had been denied by the U.S. Department of Homeland Security). Bonded by their shared love of blues\, Hunter and Woodward quickly constructed a setlist of favorite songs and hit the road. Within less than a week of playing shows together\, they realized that they’d hit upon something very special\, indeed. \nRecorded in November 2018 at Stephen Lee Price’s studio in High Point\, NC\, with longtime Hunter collaborator Derrek Phillips on the drums\, Music!Music!Music! features eleven radically reworked covers of songs by artists ranging from Blind Willie Johnson and Bessie Smith to Nina Simone and Terence Trent D’Arby. Soulful\, spacious and deliciously in the pocket\, Music!Music!Music! showcases the dazzling interplay between Hunter’s funky guitar and Woodward’s powerful voice\, while also reflecting the spontaneity and good vibes of the duo’s live performances. \nHunter and Woodward will return to the road this spring to take Music!Music!Music! to the people. The tour for the album will stretch over much of 2019\, with the duo going to Europe and Japan as well as all over North America. \nJohn Paul White\n \nJohn Paul White grew up in tiny Loretto\, Tennessee\, and now lives in Florence\, Alabama\, not far\nfrom Muscle Shoals. He has cultivated his career in Nashville for two decades\, first as a songwriter for a major publisher\, then as half of The Civil Wars – a groundbreaking duo that won four Grammy Awards before disbanding in 2012. Because The Civil Wars were so hard to categorize\, White has earned a fan base among indie rock listeners\, folk audiences\, Americana outlets\, and AAA radio. \nMolly Tuttle\n \nA virtuosic\, award-winning guitarist with a gift for insightful songwriting\, Molly Tuttle evolves her signature sound with boundary-breaking songs on her compelling debut album\, When You’re Ready. Already crowned “Instrumentalist of the Year” at the 2018 Americana Music Awards on the strength of her EP\, Tuttle has broken boundaries and garnered the respect of her peers\, winning fans for her incredible flatpicking guitar technique and confessional songwriting. Graced with a clear\, true voice and a keen melodic sense\, the 26-year-old seems poised for a long and exciting career. When You’re Ready\, produced by Ryan Hewitt (The Avett Brothers\, The Lumineers) showcases her astonishing range and versatility and shows that she is more than simply an Americana artist. \nCharley Crockett\n \nGrowing up with a single mother in San Benito\, Texas\, the hometown of Tejano star Freddy Fender was not easy for blues singer Charley Crockett. Hitchhiking across the country exposed Crockett to the street life at a young age\, following in the footsteps of his relative\, American folk hero Davy Crockett\, who also lived a wild life on the American frontier. After train hopping across the country\, singing on the streets for change in New Orleans’ French Quarter\, busking in New York City and performing across Texas and Northern California\, Crockett set off to travel the world and lived on the streets of Paris for nearly a year before searching for home in Spain\, Morocco\, and Northern Africa. \nThe blues artist returned home to Texas and released his debut solo album titled A Stolen Jewel in 2015\, receiving critical acclaim in Dallas and ultimately landing him a Dallas Observer Music Award that year for “Best Blues Act”. A record “rich with Southern flavor\, a musical gumbo of Delta blues\, honky-tonk\, gospel and Cajun jazz\,” Jewel proved that Crockett\, born into poverty in the Rio Grande\, had come home to make his musical mark on the South. Crockett\, who is self-described as elusive\, rebellious and self-taught\, has been compared to legends like Bill Withers\, Merle Haggard\, and Gary Clark Jr. \nHe released his sophomore record In The Night\, an admirable nod to his Texas country and Louisiana blues roots\, on June 4 and ended 2016 having played over 125 shows. “In the Night” and Crockett’s song “I Am Not Afraid” received international recognition from top tastemakers after being picked by NPR Music as one of the “Top 10 Songs Public Radio Can’t Stop Playing” and selected by David Dye to be featured on World Cafe in late July. The Fort Worth Star-Telegram called it “an impressive calling card\, full of Crockett’s plaintive soulfulness and swinging tempos” and Central Track noted the artist as having “the well-rounded songwriting capabilities of Van Morrison and a vocal approach that finds common ground between Bill Withers and early Dr. John.” Crockett graced the cover of Buddy Magazine in May 2016\, who called him “the archetype of the new American vagabond.” \nHe has shared the stage with artists like Turnpike Troubadours\, Leon Bridges\, Justin Townes Earle\, Citizen Cope\, Alejandro Escovedo\, Joe Ely\, Sean Hayes\, Tab Benoit\, Ace Enders and others. \nJeff Black\n \n“His words and voice hold down center stage with a craft so deeply in the artistic pocket that it obscures anything outside” \n– No Depression \nIt’s the truth behind what an artist does and the way they choose to do it that defines their art. And while the ways in which audiences get their music has changed\, the reasons why a certain kind of artist makes music have remained the same. Call it an uncompromising commitment\, an inspired motivation\, or just the need to share with and connect to those who listen. For Jeff Black\, it is his life’s work that has driven him to build a career like few other singer/songwriters in the business. Boston’s WUMB listeners voted Jeff Black as one of the top 100 most important Folk artists of the last 25 years. \nBlack’s songs have earned GRAMMY recognition\, radio chart-topping stats and numerous BMI awards. Although flying below the radar as a performer himself\, he has been recognized by NPR as a musical pioneer in the digital age and his catalogue of critically acclaimed albums continues to grow. Composing music for film and television\, his credits include numerous indie-film soundtracks and a repertoire of songs cut by artists as diverse as Alison Krauss & Union Station\, Waylon Jennings\, BlackHawk\, Dierks Bentley\, Jon Randall\, John Oates\, Jerry Douglas and Sam Bush. Black has forged a reputation as a true folk troubadour entertaining audiences globally for over three decades. A master songwriter and performer in the tradition of the great storytellers\, his passionate\, soul driven live performances of songs from his vast catalog are not to be missed. \nFolklore is the 10th release from the prolific songwriter. Recorded over a 2 day period in Nashville\, Tennessee at Arcana Studios\, Jeff Black arms himself with a guitar\, harmonica and a banjo to traverse the clay-dust roads that trace the cutting edge of pop culture\, delivering a collection of modern folk and acoustic classics. \n“The tradition of an artist delivering songs that are damn near perfectly crafted and filled with the wisdom of the ages.”\n– Jedd Beaudoin | PopMatters

SUMMARY:Sam Bush
DESCRIPTION:With special guest JD Hutchison to open\nThere was only one prize-winning teenager carrying stones big enough to say thanks\, but no thanks to Roy Acuff. Only one son of Kentucky finding a light of inspiration from Bill Monroe and his Blue Grass Boys and catching a fire from Bob Marley and The Wailers. Only one progressive hippie allying with like-minded conspirators\, rolling out the New Grass revolution\, and then leaving the genre’s torch-bearing band behind as it reached its commercial peak. \nThere is only one consensus pick of peers and predecessors\, of the traditionalists\, the rebels\, and the next gen devotees. Music’s ultimate inside outsider. Or is it outside insider? There is only one Sam Bush. \n \nOn a Bowling Green\, Kentucky cattle farm in the post-war 1950s\, Bush grew up an only son\, and with four sisters. His love of music came immediately\, encouraged by his parents’ record collection and\, particularly\, by his father Charlie\, a fiddler\, who organized local jams. Charlie envisioned his son someday a staff fiddler at the Grand Ole Opry\, but a clear day’s signal from Nashville brought to Bush’s television screen a tow-headed boy named Ricky Skaggs playing mandolin with Flatt and Scruggs\, and an epiphany for Bush. At 11\, he purchased his first mandolin. \nAs a teen fiddler Bush was a three-time national champion in the junior division of the National Oldtime Fiddler’s Contest. He recorded an instrumental album\, Poor Richard’s Almanac as a high school senior and in the spring of 1970 attended the Fiddlers Convention in Union Grove\, NC. There he heard the New Deal String Band\, taking notice of their rock-inspired brand of progressive bluegrass. \n \nAcuff offered him a spot in his band. Bush politely turned down the country titan. It was not the music he wanted to play. He admired the grace of Flatt & Scruggs\, loved Bill Monroe- even saw him perform at the Ryman- but he’d discovered electrified alternatives to tradition in the Osborne Brothers and manifest destiny in The Dillards. \nSee the photo of a fresh-faced Sam Bush in his shiny blue high school graduation gown\, circa 1970. Tufts of blonde hair breaking free of the borders of his squared cap\, Bush is smiling\, flanked by his proud parents. The next day he was gone\, bound for Los Angeles. He got as far as his nerve would take him- Las Vegas- then doubled back to Bowling Green. \n“I started working at the Holiday Inn as a busboy\,” Bush recalls. “Ebo Walker and Lonnie Peerce came in one night asking if I wanted to come to Louisville and play five nights a week with the Bluegrass Alliance. That was a big\, ol’ ‘Hell yes\, let’s go.'” \nBush played guitar in the group\, then began playing after recruiting guitarist Tony Rice to the fold. Following a fallout with Peerce in 1971\, Bush and his Alliance mates- Walker\, Courtney Johnson\, and Curtis Burch- formed the New Grass Revival\, issuing the band’s debut\, New Grass Revival. Walker left soon after\, replaced temporarily by Butch Robins\, with the quartet solidifying around the arrival of bassist John Cowan. \n“There were already people that had deviated from Bill Monroe’s style of bluegrass\,” Bush explains. “If anything\, we were reviving a newgrass style that had already been started. Our kind of music tended to come from the idea of long jams and rock-&-roll songs.” \nShunned by some traditionalists\, New Grass Revival played bluegrass fests slotted in late-night sets for the “long-hairs and hippies.” Quickly becoming a favorite of rock audiences\, they garnered the attention of Leon Russell\, one of the era’s most popular artists. Russell hired New Grass as his supporting act on a massive tour in 1973 that put the band nightly in front of tens of thousands. \nAt tour’s end\, it was back to headlining six nights a week at an Indiana pizza joint. But\, they were resilient\, grinding it out on the road. And in 1975 the Revival first played Telluride\, Colorado\, forming a connection with the region and its fans that has prospered for 45 years. \nBush was the newgrass commando\, incorporating a variety of genres into the repertoire. He discovered a sibling similarity with the reggae rhythms of Marley and The Wailers\, and\, accordingly\, developed an ear-turning original style of mandolin playing. The group issued five albums in their first seven years\, and in 1979 became Russell’s backing band. By 1981\, Johnson and Burch left the group\, replaced by banjoist Bela Fleck and guitarist Pat Flynn. \nA three-record contract with Capitol Records and a conscious turn to the country market took the Revival to new commercial heights. Bush survived a life-threatening bout with cancer\, and returned to the group that’d become more popular than ever. They released chart-climbing singles\, made videos\, earned Grammy nominations\, and\, at their zenith\, called it quits. \n“We were on the verge of getting bigger\,” recalls Bush. “Or maybe we’d gone as far as we could. I’d spent 18 years in a four-piece partnership. I needed a break. But\, I appreciated the 18 years we had.” \nBush worked the next five years with Emmylou Harris’ Nash Ramblers\, then a stint with Lyle Lovett. He took home three-straight IBMA Mandolin Player of the Year awards\, 1990-92\, (and a fourth in 2007). In 1995 he reunited with Fleck\, now a burgeoning superstar\, and toured with the Flecktones\, reigniting his penchant for improvisation. Then\, finally\, after a quarter-century of making music with New Grass Revival and collaborating with other bands\, Sam Bush went solo. \nHe’s released seven albums and a live DVD over the past two decades. In 2009\, the Americana Music Association awarded Bush the Lifetime Achievement Award for Instrumentalist. Punch Brothers\, Steep Canyon Rangers\, and Greensky Bluegrass are just a few present-day bluegrass vanguards among so many musicians he’s influenced. His performances are annual highlights of the festival circuit\, with Bush’s joyous perennial appearances at the town’s famed bluegrass fest earning him the title\, “King of Telluride.” \n“With this band I have now I am free to try anything. Looking back at the last 50 years of playing newgrass\, with the elements of jazz improvisation and rock-&-roll\, jamming\, playing with New Grass Revival\, Leon\, and Emmylou; it’s a culmination of all of that\,” says Bush. “I can unapologetically stand onstage and feel I’m representing those songs well.” \nJD Hutchison\n \nJ.D. Hutchison is a native of the Appalachian region of southeastern Ohio. He was born\, the second of four sons to John Williams and Emma Jane Harper Hutchison\, in a tiny three-room house located one mile west of the town square in the village of Barnesville. His was a musical family. His father was a well-known guitarist and fiddler in the community; he often appeared with his wife (J.D.’s mother) as a singing duo at public functions in the area. There seemed to be an unfailing congregation of local players nearby every week at someone-or-another’s house where a plentiful table would be at the ready and music would prevail until all were played out. These conditions imbued JD from early childhood with a strong affection and affinity for tradition-based string music. \nLearn more: http://www.jdhutchison.com \n

SUMMARY:Amy Grant [SOLD OUT]
DESCRIPTION:with special guest Joshua Lee\nConventional wisdom has it that Amy Grant put Contemporary Christian Music on the map\, becoming the first CCM artist to have a platinum record\, the first to hit No. 1 on the Pop charts\, and the first to perform at the GRAMMY Awards. Since then\, Amy Grant has been strumming her way through a 30-plus year adventure as a singer-songwriter\, author\, television host and speaker. \nEarly on\, Amy Grant’s iconic voice became instantly recognizable in both the Christian and pop worlds\, some even dubbing her the “Queen of Christian Pop.” Over the years\, she has sold more than 30 million albums worldwide\, including three multi-platinum\, six platinum\, and four gold. Her chart performance has also been consistent throughout her career\, boasting six No. 1 hits\, 10 “Top 40” pop singles\, 17 “Top 40” adult contemporary tracks and multiple contemporary Christian chart toppers. In recognition of such success\, Grant has received 6 GRAMMY Awards and 26 Dove Awards\, a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame\, and a star on the Music City Walk of Fame. Additionally\, she was most recently inducted into the Gospel Music Hall of Fame in Nashville. \nStepping out from behind her guitar\, Amy Grant found herself hosting the NBC prime time series “Three Wishes” in 2005\, bringing her into millions of living rooms across America every Friday night. The people she met and stories she collected proved to be great inspiration for creating new music and even writing a book. Two years later\, Grant’s first book\, Mosaic: Pieces of My Life So Far\, was published. She continues to share her stories with audiences all over the country as a keynote and inspirational speaker. \nIn April 2016\, Amy Grant celebrated the 25th anniversary of her first pop hit\, “Baby Baby”\, with a worldwide release of a new version of the song featuring pop sensation and fellow Capitol Music Group recording artist Tori Kelly. Growing her wildly popular Christmas brand\, Grant then released “Tennessee Christmas” in October 2016\, her first all-new Christmas album in nearly twenty years. She looks forward to national arena symphony Christmas tours each November and December with long-time friend Michael W. Smith\, as well as an annual Christmas residency at the world-famous Ryman Auditorium in Nashville with country superstar husband Vince Gill. \nGrant resides with her family in Nashville\, Tennessee\, and is widely known for her philanthropy and tireless involvement in local causes and charitable organizations. Her own organization\, The Helping Hands Foundation\, has afforded her the opportunity to identify needs around her and the resources to help meet them\, which has proven to be the sweetest reward of all. \nJoshua Lee\n \nAfter 14 years of fifteen-passenger vans\, tour buses\, and side man gigs\, Joshua Lee left Nashville with his young family and headed to West Virginia\, trading screaming fans for screaming kids. After a difficult transition\, Lee nearly left the music life behind entirely\, but he began to write again and in doing so found his own musical voice. In his old life\, Lee might have sought collaborators to start a band\, but having difficulty finding enough like-minded musicians\, he focused instead on discovering himself as a solo artist\, something he’d never tried before. Playing solo shows in the Ohio Valley area led to a new confidence in his ability as a singer-songwriter and to a new group of musical collaborators. \nOn his debut EP\, Promise Land (June 2017)\, Joshua wrestles with questions of loss and cautiously reaches for hope rather than despair. Recorded mostly at home\, and self-produced along with Trae Gunter (Randy Montana\, Jacob Thomas Jr.)\, he finds himself searching for his own sound by mining the territories of folk rock and heartland rock and blending in synths and ambient guitars. Hints of The National supplement more traditional song forms in the spirit of Ryan Adams and Tom Petty. \nNow based in Marietta\, Ohio\, Joshua Lee is performing solo and full band in the Mid-Ohio Valley region as he’s beginning work on his next project. \nWebsite: http://joshualeemusic.com/ \nFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/imightbejoshualee/ \nInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/imightbejoshualee/

SUMMARY:The Suitcase Junket [SOLD OUT]
DESCRIPTION:Live at THE STAGE DOOR\nThe Suitcase Junket is Matt Lorenz: artist\, tinkerer\, swamp yankee\, one-man band. His is the road-worn voice rising over the grind of a tube-amped dumpster guitar\, and the wild double pitches of throat singing. From Lorenz’ penchant for thrift and ingenuity comes this full-length Signature Sounds debut of original rock anthems\, mountain ballads\, blues manifestos and dance-hall festivity. It is magnificent\, rousing\, image-driven songwriting\, laid out on instruments built of broken bottles\, thrift store forks\, dried bones\, gas cans\, shoes\, saw blades\, a toy keyboard\, salvaged instruments\, and an overhead compartment’s worth of luggage.  \n \nMatt was raised in Cavendish\, Vermont\, the son of schoolteachers. He learned to sing by copying his sister Kate; the siblings are two-thirds of the touring trio Rusty Belle. Lorenz graduated from Hampshire College in Amherst\, Massachusetts\, in 2004\, having taught himself to throat-sing\, inspired by a South Indian cooking class. On moving day\, he pulled a guitar\, filled with mold and worse for wear\, from a dorm dumpster. He fixed it up and started pulling songs out of it. That was the beginning.    \nSince then\, The Suitcase Junket has built a powerful fan base in his native New England and far beyond. \nThe latest album from The Suitcase Junket\, Mean Dog\, Trampoline is populated by characters in various states of reverie: leaning on jukeboxes\, loitering on dance floors\, lying on the bottoms of empty swimming pools in the sun. Despite being deeply attuned to the chaos of the world\, singer/songwriter/ multi instrumentalist Matt Lorenz imbues those moments with joyful wonder\, an endless infatuation with life’s most subtle mysteries. And as its songs alight on everything from Joan Jett to moonshine to runaway kites\, Mean Dog\, Trampoline makes an undeniable case for infinite curiosity as a potent antidote to jadedness and despair. \nProduced by Steve Berlin (Jackie Greene\, Rickie Lee Jones\, Leo Kottke) of Los Lobos\, Mean Dog\, Trampoline marks a deliberate departure from the self recorded\, homespun approach of The Suitcase Junket’s previous efforts. In creating the album\, Lorenz pulled from a fantastically patchwork sonic palette\, shaping his songs with elements of jangly folk\, fuzzed out blues\, oddly textured psych rock. Engineered by Justin Pizzoferrato (Dinosaur Jr.\, Speedy Ortiz) and mixed by Vance Powell (Jack White\, Houndmouth)\, Mean Dog\, Trampoline rightly preserves The Suitcase Junket’s unkempt vitality\, but ultimately emerges as his most powerfully direct album so far.

SUMMARY:Todd Rundgren
DESCRIPTION:The Individualist Tour\nPeoples Bank Theatre welcomes legendary songwriter\, musician\, interactive artist\, producer and nominee for the Rock N’ Roll Hall Of Fame\, Todd Rundgren. \nBorn and raised in Philadelphia\, Rundgren began playing guitar as a teenager\, going on to found and front Nazz\, the quintessential `60s psychedelic group. In 1969\, he left the band to pursue a solo career\, recording his debut offering\, Runt. But it was 1972’s seminal Something/Anything?\, on which he played all the instruments\, sang all the vocal parts\, and acted as his own producer\, that catapulted Todd into the superstar limelight\, prompting the press to unanimously dub him ‘Rock’s New Wunderkind’. It was followed by such landmark LPs as The Hermit of Mink Hollow and A Wizard\, A True Star\, as well as such hit singles as I Saw The Light\, Hello It’s Me\, Can We Still Be Friends\, and Bang The Drum. \nRundgren’s myriad production projects include albums by Patti Smith\, Cheap Trick\, the Psychedelic Furs\, Meatloaf\, and XTC. Rounding out his reputation as rock’s renaissance man\, Rundgren composed all the music and lyrics for Joe Papp’s 1989 Off-Broadway production of Joe Orton’s Up Against It (the screenplay was commissioned by the Beatles for what was meant to be their third film). He also has composed the music for the hit film Dumb and Dumber\, as well as a number of television series\, including Pee Wee’s Playhouse and Crime Story. \nRundgren penned his first ever autobiography\, released December 2018\, reflecting on both his phenomenal career as well as his rollercoaster of a personal life with pages of recollections\, structured into bite-sized single-page three-paragraph chapters\, about encounters with rock royalty including Janis Joplin\, Brian Wilson\, Ringo Starr\, Patti Smith\, The NY Dolls\, and Meat Loaf along with numerous photos never before published. \nIn conjunction with the release\, Rundgren will be embarking on the world’s first hybrid concert/book tour this coming spring\, highlighting both hits and “deep tracks” spanning his 50- year career\, which will include shows in North America\, the UK\, Europe\, and Japan. \nConsistent with his history of innovation\, Todd writes in the introduction to his book: “So in order to get myself and the reader through this process with a minimum of chaos\, the book will take on the form of this page: [paragraph #1] a recollection of something that I witnessed\, [paragraph #2] a subjective assessment of my state of mind in either experiencing or remembering the episode (or a haphazard combination of both)\, and as in this 3rd paragraph\, a conclusion\, a statement of plain facts or simply soap-box proselytizing. I suggest scanning the book in whatever manner one’s taste and temperament dictate.” \nVIP Packages\nAvailable for purchase until May 30 \nTodd Rundgren – Front Row + Meet & Greet Package\nPackage price: $325 (Includes one Orchestra Pit ticket)\nNote: Select “Best Available” when ordering to access this option.\nPackage includes: \n\nOne Orchestra Pit ticket at the foot of the stage\nExclusive preshow meet & greet with Todd Rundgren\nPersonal photograph with Todd Rundgren\nHardcover copy of Todd Rundgren’s autobiography The Individualist; personally autographed by Todd\nThe Individualist bookmark\nSpecially designed Todd Rundgren tote bag\nExclusive Todd Rundgren VIP merchandise item\nOfficial meet & greet laminate\nOn-site VIP host\nVery limited availability\n\nTodd Rundgren – Meet & Greet Package\nPackage price: $250  (Includes one ticket) \n\nOne premium reserved ticket\nExclusive preshow meet & greet with Todd Rundgren\nPersonal photograph with Todd Rundgren\nHardcover copy of Todd Rundgren’s autobiography The Individualist; personally autographed by Todd\nThe Individualist bookmark\nSpecially designed Todd Rundgren tote bag\nExclusive Todd Rundgren VIP merchandise item\nOfficial meet & greet laminate\nOn-site VIP host\nVery limited availability\n\nTodd Rundgren – VIP Tour Package\nPackage price: $150 (Includes one ticket) \n\nOne premium reserved ticket\nHardcover copy of Todd Rundgren’s autobiography The Individualist; autographed by Todd\nThe Individualist bookmark\nSpecially designed Todd Rundgren tote bag\nExclusive Todd Rundgren VIP merchandise item\nCommemorative tour laminate\nOn-site VIP host\n\n*Seat Sponsors please note: Due to the nature of the artist’s contract and VIP package/fan club sales\, we cannot guarantee your sponsored seat will be available for this show.

SUMMARY:Connie Smith
DESCRIPTION:Connie Smith is considered by many to be one of the best vocalists in country music history.  “Once a Day\,” “Just in Time\,” “Then and Only Then\,” and “Ain’t Had No Lovin’\,” are just a few of her many hits.  This Country Music Hall of Fame inductee has earned 11 Grammy nominations\, and landed on the Billboard Top Ten country singles charts 20 times. \nA Hall of Fame Lifetime of Singing\nDolly Parton once noted\, famously\, that there were just three real female singers around—Barbra Streisand\, Linda Ronstadt\, and Connie Smith. “The rest of us\,” she said\, “are only pretending.” It’s less-well known that when Connie Smith was introduced to Keith Richards\, he grabbed fellow Connie Smith fan (and Rolling Stone) Ron Wood and brought him up to meet her\, too\, exclaiming “She’s the real deal!” \nWhat the singers she’s been influencing for decades spot in Connie Smith’s performances—besides her genius for phrasing\, perfect diction and a vocal range which have all long been envied—is her fervent joy in singing itself\, her love for the emotional and physical act of letting loose a song\, which is as evident on her recordings as it is in front of audiences at the Grand Ole Opry\, on RFD TV’s weekly Marty Stuart Show\, or on the road. \nIn 2012\, Connie’s singular contributions to country music were recognized conclusively when she received the field’s highest honor\, induction into the Country Music Hall of Fame. As the Hall’s inductee portrait says of her\, “Smith’s greatness extends beyond vocal brilliance. It encompasses her song selection\, her connection to great musicians (especially steel guitarists)\, her classy demeanor\, and a spiritual bearing that serves as her foundation. Connie Smith is one of country music’s most admired artists not because of one of her talents\, but because of how they form such a distinct whole.” \nMerle Haggard said\, as he conducted her induction her into the\, “I can’t remember any of Connie’s records that I didn’t like. I admire her sincerity and her spirit and her commitment to traditional country music. If you’re talking about a country singer\, there just isn’t any better.” \nMerle singled out “Long Line of Heartaches\,” Connie’s most recent recording\, as a special favorite. In recent decades\, the appearance of a new Connie Smith record has been a rare\, much-anticipated event; Long Line of Heartaches on Sugar Hill\, is her first since 1996 and only her second since 1978\, and her 53rd album to date. Still the urge to sing and share the joy she finds in doing it has never waned. \n“I may have put off making a new record for quite a while\,” Connie says\, “but I still love to sing just as much as I ever did. I really feel that it’s my destiny; I heard the saying\, one time\, ‘Do what God tells you ’til he tells you something else\,’ and He hasn’t told me anything else yet. So I think I’ll still be singing till I hear different!” \nWhat she sings on this return to disc is the same broad range of traditional country moods\, themes\, rhythms and sounds that marked her remarkable run of hit records and classic country albums in the 1960s and ’70s. Keeping that music alive\, well and in the public ear was an important motivation in breaking this most recent recording hiatus: \n“I feel so fortunate to have been introduced to Nashville in the early sixties. It was a magical time in country music; country artists were encouraged to bring their individuality and culture to the microphone\, not to back away from them\, and the songwriters of the era were just the best. But I feel that the music as it was has been slipping away—and much\, much faster than I’m ready for. The only thing I know to do about it now is to keep singing what I’ve always loved.” \nConnie has always been the sort of singer who\, much as Frank Sinatra did in saloon singer pop\, emphasizes crediting the writers who created the emotionally direct songs she chooses to sing. Songs by songwriters she’s long favored\, including icons Bill Anderson\, Harlan Howard\, Johnny Russell\, Kostas\, and Dallas Frazier (whose “A Heart Like You” on this record was one of the first he’d written in 30 years\, and the 69th Frazier song Connie’s had on record) are featured on this new release. Her own songwriting\, which had been something she’d found little time for early in her career\, came more to the foreground when she began co-writing with Marty Stuart; five of their collaborations appear on Long Line of Heartaches\, including the title track. \n“I had written a few of the songs I and others had recorded over the years\, but I’d never even begun to think I could write enough to do a whole album. Marty believed I could. We found other good songs\, too; it can be a bad idea to only do your own songs. I don’t cut a song because Bill\, Harlan\, Dallas or I wrote it\, I cut it because I think it’s the best song that I can find at the time.” \n“If I hadn’t had Marty as producer and Mick Conley\, as outr engineer\, working with me\, this record couldn’t have happened like it did. When we got 5 of the songs Marty and I wrote coupled with the 7 great songs from other writers\, we got serious and knew it was time to record. The songs had to come first. Then the work was just a joy. \nA first-time occurrence on this album is the appearance of Connie’s daughters Julie\, Jeanne and Jodi with her\, adding striking family harmonies to the contemporary hymn “Take My Hand.” “My five kids all know every word to every one of my songs\,” Connie notes\, “and we always sang at home. You’ll hear that my daughters are really good; they just never had the desire to be professionals. Neither did my two sons\, Darren and Kerry\, who also sing well.” \nThat Connie Smith always prioritized family life over career (and with no conflict about that\, she notes) is one reason she may be better known in the households of long-time traditional country music lovers than some others. She’d taken a break from appearances and recording to raise those kids\, and\, as she puts it “never went back into business in full force\,” though she has been a much-loved mainstay at the Grand Ole Opry. \nIt is a Nashville legend that Connie’s first record\, the aching and unforgettable “Once a Day\,” written by Bill Anderson and recorded on July 16\, 1964 when she was just 23\, became one of the most celebrated singles in country music history—the first debut single by a female country singer to go to Number One\, a position it held for eight weeks. Forty-seven years later it is still the only first single ever to have done that. When Connie sang “Once A Day” in the all-star B-movie musical Second Fiddle to a Steel Guitar the following year\, she was introduced on-screen as “The Cinderella of Country Music.” “Once A Day\,” and her stunning rendition of “How Great Thou Art” remain the two most requested songs by her fans to this day. Connie’s memorable string of hits would include “You and Your Sweet Love” “If It Ain’t Love” “Where Is My Castle?” “Run Away Little Tears” “Just One Time” and “I Never Once Stopped Loving You.” \nThe passion for singing and for the songs\, and the singular vocal precision in delivering them that marked those standards-to-be are fully on display in this return to recording. “If you add up all the songs on this album\,” Connie Smith says\, “it would add up to my personality. It’s me talking again\, after so many years\, with a message no different than I’ve always had. It’s just that I love you\, and I want that love to come back.”

SUMMARY:Chicago - SOLD OUT
DESCRIPTION:Doors open at 6:30 p.m.\nSinger/songwriter Tim Stop to open at 7:15 p.m.\nChicago in concert at 8:00 p.m. \nChicago comes to Marietta! For our 100th Anniversary\, Peoples Bank presents Chicago in one of the most intimate settings they’ve ever played. \nHailed as one of the “most important bands in music since the dawn of the rock and roll era\,” Chicago came in at #4 in Billboard Magazine’s recent Top Bands And Duos\, the highest charting American band in the chart’s history. Inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 2016\, Chicago is the first American rock band to chart Top 40 albums in six consecutive decades. \nChicago’s first album\, Chicago Transit Authority\, was inducted into the GRAMMY Hall Of Fame in 2014\, and the band performed on the Grammy stage for the first time that year. \nRobert Lamm and James Pankow have become the latest inductees of the Songwriters Hall of Fame in 2017. These legendary songwriters wrote mega-hits such as\, “25 or 6 to 4\,” “Saturday In The Park\,” “Feelin’ Stronger Every Day\,” “Make Me Smile\,” and many others. \nMore than 40 years after its debut\, Chicago still sounds like nothing else. Released in 1970\, Chicago’s second album brims with confidence and inspiration as it draws on everything from orchestral music to heavy rock. It spawned a trio of Top Ten hits\, and the timeless classic has been remastered to reveal unprecedented clarity and definition. For the first time a new stereo remix\, created by British musician and producer Steven Wilson from the 16-track multi-track tapes\, made it possible to bring out elements that were muffled or submerged in the mix. The result is a new stereo version of CHICAGO II that boasts clearness\, punch and definition that it didn’t have before.

SUMMARY:Anthony Mossburg & Joshua Lee
DESCRIPTION:The Stage Door Listening Room Series\nPart of the 2nd Annual First Settlement Festival. \nJoin us at The Stage Door for an intimate listening room concert with Anthony Mossburg and Joshua Lee. Only 50 tickets will be sold. Earlier in the day\, stop by The Stage Door for music by some of the roving musicians participating in First Settlement Fest! Watch The Stage Door and First Settlement Festival Facebook page for details and schedule. \nAnthony Mossburg\n \nEight years.  \nFour original albums.   \nThousands of shows around the country.   \nThree years after picking up a guitar in a college dorm room\, Anthony Mossburg left the stability of a full-time job to chase after the only thing that made him feel alive; music. \nWhat followed over the next eight years was a series of accolades\, achievements\, risks\, near-misses\, and setbacks that indefinitely shaped him as an artist and a person. With several bootstrap tours and three independent albums under his belt\, Anthony is now living in Columbus\, Ohio\, and is headlining shows around the country. \nHis breakthrough song\, “Whiskey and Wine”\, introduced a new sound to his avid fanbase\, and shed a light into his evolution as an artist. The hard work and risks didn’t go unnoticed. Early in 2015\, the song broke into the Top 10 on coveted iTunes Singer/Songwriter category. \nNow\, he is squaring his sights on introducing his soulful voice\, gutsy lyrics\, and melodic tones into a new direction that will push his creative talent like never before. This is just the beginning. \nWebsite: http://www.anthonymossburg.com/ \nFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/anthony.mossburg \nInstagram: http://instagram.com/amossburg \nJoshua Lee\n \nAfter 14 years of fifteen-passenger vans\, tour buses\, and side man gigs\, Joshua Lee left Nashville with his young family and headed to West Virginia\, trading screaming fans for screaming kids. After a difficult transition\, Lee nearly left the music life behind entirely\, but he began to write again and in doing so found his own musical voice. In his old life\, Lee might have sought collaborators to start a band\, but having difficulty finding enough like-minded musicians\, he focused instead on discovering himself as a solo artist\, something he’d never tried before. Playing solo shows in the Ohio Valley area led to a new confidence in his ability as a singer-songwriter and to a new group of musical collaborators. \nOn his debut EP\, Promise Land (June 2017)\, Joshua wrestles with questions of loss and cautiously reaches for hope rather than despair. Recorded mostly at home\, and self-produced along with Trae Gunter (Randy Montana\, Jacob Thomas Jr.)\, he finds himself searching for his own sound by mining the territories of folk rock and heartland rock and blending in synths and ambient guitars. Hints of The National supplement more traditional song forms in the spirit of Ryan Adams and Tom Petty. \nNow based in Marietta\, Ohio\, Joshua Lee is performing solo and full band in the Mid-Ohio Valley region as he’s beginning work on his next project. \nWebsite: http://joshualeemusic.com/ \nFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/imightbejoshualee/ \nInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/imightbejoshualee/ \n  \nBefore & After the concert: First Settlement Festival\n \nThe year 2018 marked Marietta’s 230th birthday. The Galley was participating in Marietta Main Street’s First Friday (Marietta’s Birthday Party) but The Adelphia wanted to get involved in a big way as well. The First Settlement Festival was born. \nThe main idea behind the First Settlement Festival is to invite people downtown to celebrate all that Historic Marietta has to offer. Seeing busking bands gives Marietta an Austin or Seattle feel\, and it also draws people into our amazing selection of boutique shops. Meanwhile\, all-day entertainment is hosted on The Adelphia main stage\, with entertainment starting at noon and continuing all the way to Midnight.

SUMMARY:Ricky Skaggs & Kentucky Thunder
DESCRIPTION:With Johnny Staats & The Delivery Boys to open \nFourteen-time GRAMMY Award-winner Ricky Skaggs’ career is easily among the most significant in recent country music history. If Skaggs’ burgeoning trophy case full of awards wasn’t already enough evidence enough of that fact\, consider that legendary guitarist Chet Atkins once credited Skaggs with “single-handedly saving country music.” His life’s path has taken him to various musical genres\, from where it all began in bluegrass music\, to striking out on new musical journeys\, while still leaving his musical roots intact. Skaggs legendary album\, Bluegrass Rules! swept major music awards\, topped the charts\, and cemented his reputation for bringing the genre to the masses. He\, along with Kentucky Thunder\, are 8-time winners of the International Bluegrass Music Association Instrumental Group of the Year. Skaggs struck his first chords on a mandolin over 50 years ago\, and he continues to do his part to lead the recent roots revival in music. Clearly his passion for it puts him in the position to bring his lively\, distinctively American form of music out of isolation and into the ears and hearts of audiences across the country and around the world. Ricky Skaggs is always forging ahead with cross-cultural\, genre-bending musical ideas and inspirations. \nA Lifetime of Music\nWith 12 consecutive Grammy-nominated classics behind him\, all from his own Skaggs Family Records label (Bluegrass Rules! in 1998\, Ancient Tones in 1999\, History of the Future in 2001\, Soldier of the Cross\, Live at the Charleston Music Hall\, and Big Mon: The Songs of Bill Monroe in 2003\, Brand New Strings in 2005\, Instrumentals in 2007\, Salt of the Earth with The Whites in 2008\, Honoring the Fathers of Bluegrass: Tribute to 1946 and 1947 in 2009 and Ricky Skaggs Solo: Songs My Dad Loved along with Mosaic in 2010)\, the diverse and masterful tones made by the gifted Skaggs come from a life dedicated to playing music that is both fed by the soul and felt by the heart. \nRicky was born on July 18\, 1954 in Cordell\, Kentucky\, and received his first mandolin at the age of five after his father\, Hobert\, heard him harmonizing with his mother from across the house as he played with his toys. Two weeks after teaching him the G\, C and D chords\, Hobert returned from working out of town shocked to see his young son making chord changes and singing along. He soon earned a reputation among the locals in his community. When the legendary Bill Monroe came to Martha\, Kentucky for a performance\, the crowd wouldn’t let up until “Little Ricky Skaggs” got up to play. The father of bluegrass called six- year-old Skaggs up and placed his own mandolin around his neck\, adjusting the strap to fit his small frame. No one could have imagined what a defining moment that would be in the life of the young prodigy. By age seven\, Skaggs performed with bluegrass legends Flatt & Scruggs on their popular syndicated television show\, for which he earned his first paycheck for a musical performance. \nIn 1971\, he entered the world of professional music full-time with his friend\, the late country singer\, Keith Whitley\, when the two young musicians were invited to join the band of bluegrass patriarch Ralph Stanley. Ricky soon began to build a reputation for creativity and excitement through live appearances and recordings with acts such as J.D. Crowe & the New South. He performed on the band’s 1975 debut album for Rounder Records\, which is widely regarded as one of the most influential bluegrass albums ever made. A stint as a bandleader with Boone Creek followed\, bringing the challenges of leadership while giving him further recording and performing experience. \nIn the late 1970’s\, Ricky turned his attention to country music. Though still in his 20’s\, the wealth of experience and talent he possessed served him well\, first as a member of Emmylou Harris’ Hot Band and later as an individual recording artist on his own. With the release of Waitin’ for the Sun to Shine in 1981\, Skaggs reached the top of the country charts and remained there throughout most of the 1980’s\, resulting in a total of 12 #1 hits. In 1982\, he became a member of the Grand Ole Opry\, the youngest to ever be inducted at that time. As his popularity soared\, he garnered eight awards from the Country Music Association (CMA)\, including “Entertainer of the Year” in 1985\, four Grammy Awards and dozens of other honors. These achievements also placed him front and center in the neo-traditionalist movement\, bringing renewed vitality and prominence to a sound that had been somewhat subdued by the commercialization of the ‘Urban Cowboy’ fad. Renowned guitarist and producer\, Chet Atkins\, even credited Skaggs with “single-handedly” saving country music. \nIn 1997\, after Ricky’s then-current recording contract was coming to an end\, he made the decision to establish his own record label – Skaggs Family Records. Since then\, Skaggs and his band Kentucky Thunder have released an amazing 12 consecutive Grammy-nominated classics (8 of which went on to earn the revered award) while also opening the label to a variety of other musical artists\, all the time keeping emphasis on bluegrass and other forms of roots music. Ricky and Skaggs Family Records have had the privilege of working with many musical talents\, including the Del McCoury Band\, Jerry and Tammy Sullivan\, Blue Highway\, The Whites\, Mountain Heart\, Melonie Cannon\, Ryan Holladay\, Keith Sewell\, Cherryholmes and Cadillac Sky. \nRicky’s first release for Skaggs Family Records\, Bluegrass Rules!\, set a new standard for bluegrass\, breaking new sales records in the genre\, winning Skaggs his sixth Grammy Award and earning the International Bluegrass Music Association’s (IBMA) Album of the Year Award. In 1999\, his second all-bluegrass album\, Ancient Tones\, won a Grammy Award for Best Bluegrass Album – his second consecutive Grammy in that same category. Just one year later\, Ricky won his eighth Grammy Award in the Best Southern\, Country or Bluegrass Gospel Album category for Soldier of the Cross\, his first all-gospel project with his band Kentucky Thunder. \nRicky made further progress with the release of his fourth bluegrass album in 2000\, Big Mon: The Songs of Bill Monroe\, a project which featured an all-star cast of musicians ranging from Dolly Parton\, Patty Loveless and Travis Tritt to Joan Osborne\, John Fogerty and Bruce Hornsby\, and celebrated the music and the life of Ricky’s mentor\, Bill Monroe. Big Mon received much critical acclaim\, including a Grammy nomination for Best Country Collaboration with Vocals. The album was re-released by Lyric Street Records in 2002 under a new name\, Ricky Skaggs and Friends Sing the Songs of Bill Monroe. His fifth bluegrass album\, History of the Future (2001)\, a timeless collection of both traditional bluegrass standards and newly conceived acoustic gems received rave reviews and industry accolades\, including a Grammy nomination for Best Bluegrass Album and an IBMA nomination for Album of the Year\, once again placing Skaggs among the leading innovators in the genre. \nSkaggs’ first all-live album with Kentucky Thunder\, Live at the Charleston Music Hall (2003) led to an IBMA Award for Instrumental Group of the Year – an award Skaggs and Kentucky Thunder has taken home 8 times in the last decade. The decision to record a live album was an obvious one for Skaggs. From a string of high-profile tour dates with the Dixie Chicks in 2000\, to his position as host of the unprecedented “All*Star Bluegrass Celebration” which aired nationwide on PBS in 2002\, to his participation in the wildly successful 41-city ‘Down from the Mountain’ tour – Ricky has become one of bluegrass’ most dynamic and sought-after live performers. Live at the Charleston Music Hall was honored in 2004 with a Grammy Award for Best Country Performance by a Duo or Group for the Harley Allen-penned track\, “A Simple Life.” \nHe counts the current configuration of Kentucky Thunder among the best group of musicians he has ever worked with. “This group of guys meets my approval every night\,” Ricky says. “Each and every one of the pickers in Kentucky Thunder totally amazes me in every show…and that\, to me\, outweighs any award we could ever win.” The all-star lineup of Kentucky Thunder includes Paul Brewster (tenor vocals\, rhythm guitar)\, Russ Carson (banjo)\, Jake Workman (lead guitar)\, Mike Barnett (fiddle)\, Dennis Parker (baritone vocals\, guitar) and Jeff Picker (bass\, bass vocals). \nIn 2005\, Ricky earned his 10th career Grammy (Best Bluegrass Album) for Brand New Strings – a beautiful collection of music featuring four Skaggs originals as well as several tunes by some of his most admired contemporaries\, including Harley Allen\, Guy Clark and Shawn Camp. In 2006\, Skaggs was honored with a Grammy Award – this time in the Best Musical Album for Children category – for his contribution to Songs from the Neighborhood: the Music of Mister Rogers. Greater success followed with the release of Ricky Skaggs and Kentucky Thunder Instrumentals\, an album of all-original\, all- instrumental material in the fall of 2006. Praised by fans and critics alike as a landmark album for Skaggs\, Instrumentals debuted at No. 1 on Billboard’s bluegrass album chart and earned Ricky his 12th career Grammy Award (Best Bluegrass Album). \nCross pollination has been a mainstay throughout Ricky’s career\, from his weekly collaborations with various artists as host of The Nashville Network’s Monday Night Concerts in the 1990’s to his recent pairings with Bruce Hornsby and The Whites. Released in March of 2007\, Ricky Skaggs and Bruce Hornsby (Sony/Legacy) drew from the deep roots in mountain music – adding piano and Hornsby’s inimitable songwriting to the core bluegrass lineup of mandolin\, guitar\, bass\, fiddle and banjo. A major ‘CMT Crossroads’ special coincided with the album’s release. \nHis next recorded project\, released in September of 2007 on Skaggs Family Records\, was a literal family affair. After years of blending their voices from the living room to the stage\, Ricky Skaggs and The Whites teamed up for their first collaborative gospel album\, Salt of the Earth\, which resulted in a 13th career Grammy Award for Best Southern\, Country or Bluegrass Gospel Album\, followed by a Gospel Music Association Dove Award for Bluegrass Recorded Album of the Year and Inspirational Country Music Awards for Musician of the Year as well as Mainstream Country Artist of the Year and Inspirational Bluegrass Artist of the Year (with The Whites). \nIn 2008\, Skaggs paid tribute to the man he has often referred to as his “musical father”\, Bill Monroe\, and the original lineup of the Bluegrass Boys (Earl Scruggs\, Lester Flatt\, Chubby Wise and Howard Watts) with the release of Honoring the Fathers of Bluegrass: Tribute to 1946 and 1947\, earning a 14th career Grammy Award for Best Bluegrass Album. \nA musical father in his own right\, Skaggs continued on the full circle path with the addition of a ReIssue Series of his groundbreaking country music masterworks to the Skaggs Family Records catalog in 2009. Beginning with 1982’s Highways & Heartaches\, and followed by 1981’s Waitin’ for the Sun to Shine and 1983’s Don’t Cheat in Our Hometown\, the ReIssue Series will include nine albums total and includes bonus retrospectives with each release\, which feature Ricky\, in his own words\, sharing never-before-told stories about the making of each project. \nSkaggs’ first-ever solo album\, Ricky Skaggs Solo: Songs My Dad Loved (2009)\, celebrated the man that caused him to fall in love with music – his father\, Hobert Skaggs. He elaborates\, “If I could’ve gotten my dad into the studio\, this is how I would’ve wanted him to sound.” Playing every instrument and singing every note on the album\, Ricky brought raw\, emotional honesty to the songs. By coming home to the music that meant so much to him as a child\, Ricky tapped into a wellspring of passion that is channeled into every tune\, as though he willed himself back to his family’s house in Kentucky. Solo was honored in the American roots field with a Grammy nomination for Best Traditional Folk Album in 2010. \nRicky Skaggs’ album\, Mosaic (2010)\, marked a return to a full band sound that mixed elements of Country music with Beatles-esque melody and lyrics that spoke to Skaggs’ faith\, “making music that is in my head and in my heart\,” as Ricky said. Grammy winning songwriter/producer Gordon Kennedy\, who co-wrote Eric Clapton’s “Change the World\,” was instrumental as co-producer and writer. This most special album hooks the heart\, as the sounds invite you in to take notice and come closer. They blended their talents and love of music with their love for the Lord to create this distinctive collaboration of writing and talent\, unparalleled in strength of genius. The song\, “Return to Sender” from Mosaic was nominated for a Grammy for Best Gospel Song\, and the album was a contender for Best Pop/Contemporary Gospel Album at the 53rd Grammy Awards\, receiving major critical acclaim. \nMarking Ricky’s 50th year in music was the release of Country Hits Bluegrass Style (2011)\, a compilation of many of Skaggs’ #1 country hits and fan favorites played in a bluegrass style. Combining his country and bluegrass roots along with Ricky’s impeccable tenor voice\, his eight time IBMA Instrumental Band of the Year\, Kentucky Thunder\, and some of Ricky’s original award-winning country band alumni together with special friends added to the magic of this release. \nLong awaited by country and bluegrass music fans alike\, Music To My Ears (2012) included fresh new bluegrass tunes co-written by Skaggs along with a brand new instrumental. Many bluegrass standards were incorporated and added to its charm. The album featured a duet with Ricky Skaggs and Barry Gibb (of Bee Gees fame) on deeply moving “Soldier’s Son\,” along with a new bluegrass treasure “You Can’t Hurt Ham\,” inspired by a true story of Mr. Bill Monroe. \nIn 2013\, music legends Ricky Skaggs and Bruce Hornsby came together again for a live album\, titled Cluck Ol’ Hen. Bluegrass treasures and lively expanded hits are to be discovered on this fresh collection of songs from the masterful duo of Skaggs and Hornsby. These live songs were originally recorded when the two music icons first hit the tour circuit together. Hornsby’s spirited piano brings a new dimension to these songs\, with electrifying solos and improvisation thrown in the mix of Skaggs\, Hornsby and Skaggs’ band\, Kentucky Thunder. A string of tour dates coincided with the release\, including a stop at the Ryman Auditorium in Nashville\, Tenn. \nWith the release of Hearts Like Ours (2014)\, a dream came true for Ricky Skaggs and his wife\, celebrated artist Sharon White of The Whites. Previously in 1987 the pair won a CMA Vocal Duo of the Year award for “Love Can’t Ever Get Better Than This\,” but White was touring with her family band and Skaggs was on fire with his solo career\, so releasing a full project wasn’t possible at the time. This first-ever studio album was produced by Skaggs and White and features the couple dueting on handpicked country love songs. \nAs a musician\, Skaggs is a brilliant traditionalist but is also willing to mix genres\, recording and touring with many different artists such as Bruce Hornsby and Ry Cooder. With dates in 2015\, Ry Cooder\, Sharon White and Ricky Skaggs embarked upon the critically acclaimed ‘Cooder-White-Skaggs – Songs for the Good People’ tour that featured the trio singing gospel\, blues and country along with superior musicianship. Backing the trio was Mark Fain on bass\, Ry’s son Joachim Cooder on drums\, with Sharon’s father Buck White on piano and sister Cheryl White’s harmony vocals. Stops crossing the country included Berklee Performance Center in Boston and Carnegie Hall in New York\, with tour dates continuing into 2016. Most recently\, Skaggs has added Country tour dates as he plugs in and plays full shows of his chart-topping hits \nSkaggs has also demonstrated wizardry in the studio\, producing not only his records but sets from acts such as The Whites and Dolly Parton\, as well as the recent Love Remains disc from Hillary Scott & The Scott Family\, which won him his 15th Grammy for Best Contemporary Christian Music Album as a producer. \nAll of these talents and gifts has culminated in country music’s greatest honor\, as Skaggs was chosen to be forever immortalized in the prestigious Country Music Hall of Fame as a member of the class of 2018. \nJohnny Staats & The Delivery Boys\n \nBorn and raised in West Virginia Johnny Staats caught the bluegrass bug early. With his mother playing piano\, his father playing guitar\, and his sister on the banjo\, it seemed only natural that he would get his first mandolin at the age of seven. By the age of nine\, he was in his first band\, and in his teens he began appearing at local competitions. When he graduated from high school in 1988\, he married and took a job as a U.P.S. deliveryman\, but he continued to play and attend bluegrass festivals in his spare time. He won he Ohio State Guitar Championship in 1992 and again in 1993. In 1995\, his Crossroads Band won the band competition at Winterhawk\, NY\, and he won the guitar competition at MerleFest. He took the mandolin championship a the Vandalia Gathering in Charleston\, WV\, in 1996\, 1997\, and 1999; in 1997\, he also won the guitar championship and came in third in the fiddle championship. With that\, he was featured on the Mountain Stage radio series and people in Nashville began touting his talents.
