FENCE Family Concert Plays 'Name that Tune'

Mar 21 4:00 PM

Bring your family and enjoy world class music performed live in the Great Room at FENCE on the third Sunday each month.  The event is free and refreshments are served.

This month's concert will add to the proceedings as the Brevard-based group "Strings Attached" will invite audience members to identify selections on the afternoon's free-form program.  "Strings Attached" is a trio formed three years ago consisting of violin and guitar, and was the creation of violinist Peggy Cheathem.  Repertoire ranges through pop, jazz and rock with a bit of "gypsy music" mixed in for good measure.  The FENCE concert will include a number of "Name that Tune" numbers from the 1940's to the 1960's.  Peggy Cheathem holds a degree in music education and performance from Converse and will be joined by guitarist Paul Jones, a graduate of the University of Florida.

For more information call us at 828-859-9021.

Eric Taylor Performs for The Purple Onion's Concert Series

Mar 21 7:00 PM

Eric Taylor is a sage musician, a lyrical genius and a master of the guitar. If you're familiar with the intricate Texas singer/ songwriter jigsaw puzzle, you probably already know a lot about Taylor. If you're not familiar with Taylor by name, you've probably heard his songs performed by people such as Nanci Griffith and Lyle Lovett. He has created a multitude of fans and devotees that are legends themselves in the singer/songwriter realm, artists who have long considered Taylor to be a teacher and a lantern bearer whose time is long overdue.

This event is another in The Purple Onion's special Sunday evening concert series.  Don't miss it!
