Previous music series like The 803 Music Series by Dick Renko have been held in the same location.
It's hard to believe, but this year's line up may just be better than last years! Last year's shows were indeed stellar, featuring a dizzying cast of Independently represented musicians that included Susan Gibson(songwriter of "Wide Open Spaces" recorded by the Dixie Chicks), Patrice Pike(Top 10 Billboard charted), and Brett Jones(7 time #1 billboard charted songwriter).
The first of the two Starlight Series events is to be held on September 11th, 2013 with Jimbo Mathus. Surely you recall how Jimbo "masterminded the hyper-ragtime, jump blues act Squirrel Nut Zippers, something that started as a fun little art project but eventually sold a million-plus CDs in the 1990s, with a standout hit single "Hell" that went gold."http://www.highroadtouring.com/artists/jimbo-mathus/ Opening for Jimbo Mathus will be local greats Tyrannosaurus Chicken comprised of Smilin' Bob Lewis and Rachel Aamons. Tyrannosaurus Chicken is quickly lining themselves out to hit huge National and possibly international status as well.
The second and last show of this series, will be held on October 16, 2013. Live Music "buffs" can see The Legendary Folk Singer-songwriter Mary Gauthier performing Live! Ms. Gauthier is multi-award winning, Grand Ole' Opry featured, and more! Just one of the countless accolades to her credit include the following quote: "Mary's songs have been praised by both Bob Dylan and Tom Waits and recorded by Jimmy Buffet, Blake Shelton, Boy George, Tim McGraw, Mike Farris, Candi Staton and others." - http://www.marygauthier.com/press-quotes/
Opening for Mary will be another stunning song-writer out of Austin, TX, Robyn Ludwick. Robyn Ludwick is yet another incredible musician that has a common tie with Mary.
