Del McCoury Band Saturday, April 20, 2013 • 8:00 pm For fifty years, Del McCoury has defined the authenticity of bluegrass music. He is a living link to the days when bluegrass was made only in hillbilly honkytonks. He was first introduced to bluegrass through his older brother’s 78-rpm record of Flatt and Scruggs; a half-century later, the Del McCoury Band has won nearly every honor the genre has to offer, including a Grammy and three dozen IBMA awards. He still maintains a commandingly vital presence with prominent performances including A Prairie Home Companion with Garrison Keillor. The band’s latest release is Celebrating 50 Years of Del McCoury, a retrospective five-disc box set, featuring Del McCoury, guitar; Ronnie McCoury, mandolin; Rob McCoury, banjo; Jason Carter, fiddle; and Alan Bartram, bass.
"I'd rather hear Del McCoury sing 'Are You Teasing Me' than just about ANYTHING." --Vince Gill Single Tickets $63 Prime Orchestra $53 Regular Orchestra $33 Balcony Group Tickets (10 or more) $52 Prime Orchestra $42 Regular Orchestra $29 Balcony Call (262) 781-9520. |
