Wayne Henderson & Helen White
Saturday, May 18

Listen to promo ►
WRIR FM 97.3 is presenting Wayne Henderson and Helen White in concert at Westover Baptist Church.  This special concert is brought to you by WRIR FM 97.3 and its popular Tuesday night show, Edge of Americana.  The concert presents the rare opportunity of experiencing these legends of Appalachian and old time string music in such a gorgeous and intimate setting; amidst the turn-of-the-centuray elegance of the Westover Baptist Church sanctuary, at 1000 Westover Hills Boulevard. The event is partially funded by the Virginia Commission for the Arts and the National Endowment for the Arts, and proceeds will support future WRIR live arts events, and the mission of giving voice to underrepresented artists. Tickets are $22.

Roy Acuff and his Smoky Mountain Boys in 1953. Just a great pic.

Another night, another 2 hours of wonderful twangy, tangy, and crotchety tunes.

 

Enjoy!
