May 6,13, 20 & 27- Mike Farris & Sunday Night Shout- Sunday nights at 7 pm. Marty Stuart says that "Mike Farris is a soul man...way cool! When I saw him on TV the first time, even though I didn't know who he was, I thought he was a star. When I heard his Record, I knew he was." Billboard writes “...there's something so soulful and primal about Mike Farris' delivery that it's hard not to be shaken to the core.” Harp Magazine says, "Farris... slides effortlessly between Stax soul, New Orleans gospel and shuffling Southern blues, all of it punctuated with Farris' smoldering vocals and clear message of redemption." Great story, powerful performance.
May 23- 3 Fox Drive- Formerly the Fox Famiily, there's simply nothing like brother and sister harmonyl Soaring, powerful bluegrass harmonies; compelling, well-crafted original songs; supple, exciting instrumental virtuosity. Mark your calendar.
