The Blue Ridge Music Center and arts council are presenting the seventh edition of this winter showcase of Appalachian Roots Music on the last three Saturday evenings in January at the wonderful Willingham Theater on the campus of the Yadkin Cultural Arts Center.
Rissi Palmer’s gift lies in reaching across all musical boundaries. While she started out making her mark in country music, she is equally at home in R&B, bringing the entire spectrum of popular music to bear on what she calls “Southern Soul.” A few highlights throughout her musical career include performances at The White House, New York’s Lincoln Center, The Grand Ole Opry, and MerleFest.
Singer-songwriter Laurelyn Dossett lives and writes in the North Carolina Piedmont, and her songs reflect the stories of the region. Dossett is a frequent performer at regional music festivals such as MerleFest and the North Carolina Folk Festival. She is known for her work with Triad Stage to bring original music to the critically acclaimed “Brother Wolf,” “Beautiful Star,” and others, and worked with the North Carolina Symphony to produce “The Gathering: A Winter’s Tale in Six Songs.”
Tickets are $30.
