Meet the Annie Moses Band

I just returned from Nashville this weekend and so have music on my mind; in particular, the Annie Moses Band.  They hail from the Music City (Nashville) and have been one of the fastest rising family bands to tour the U.S. over the past 10 years.  If you haven’t seen or heard them before, I really suggest you check out their promo video on our website (npacvw.org.)  You will be entertained just watching their short promo.

Mixing many genres of musical style such as classical, crossover, folk, Americana, and jazz, you will be thoroughly mesmerized and entertained as they take ownership of our stage.  The players in the band are all family members originating from grandma Annie Moses’ clan. Their show is not only entertaining, but also wholesome and heart-warming with a faith-based message.

Breaking news is that vocalist Joshua Carswell has just been added to our October 4 concert at the Niswonger Performing Arts Center. Carswell has been explained to me as an outstanding singer in the style of Michael Buble. This will just add to the outstanding show of other vocals, violins (fiddles), cello, drums, and a whole family (no pun intended!) of instruments.  We hope to soon have video of Carswell up on our website for you to explore.

Tickets are still available for our season opening concert.  I had someone stop me at the fair Monday and said they can’t wait to get started with some of the quality concerts we have at the Niswonger.  I would agree!  And I can’t think of a better season opener than the Annie Moses Band that just got even better with the addition of Joshua Carswell.  Get your tickets now!

While I drove around Nashville on the various interstate highways that surround the downtown, I couldn’t help but notice all the pictures of Kenny Rogers. They were using him to promote the Country Music Hall of Fame. I suppose it caught my eye because it is the same picture we use in our promo of his December 12 concert in Van Wert.  About 80 tickets remain for his extraordinary Christmas Show in Van Wert.  And remember, he is bringing female vocalist Linda Davis with him. You can check her out on the web, too. She is quite well known for a duet she did with Reba McEntire.

The Olate Dogs are biting at the heels of The Temptations. Both are approaching sell-outs.  Remember, nothing stands in the way of you buying tickets right now when you choose a Select Series of three or more concerts. Our box office can provide you with all the details.

Thanks for stopping by our booth at the fair to talk with Jerry Beard, our box office manager.  It made the time fly by much faster.  We made new friends from out of town and created new ticket buyers to our performing arts center.  You will see them when you come to concerts throughout the year.

I just thought you’d also like to know that Van Wert got mentioned from the stage of the General Jackson showboat in Nashville this past Friday.  It just so happens that the emcee of the show that day was none other than Gary Jenkins. We have had Gary and his band in Fountain Park on two occasions. He is a very funny and entertaining musician. Don’t be surprised if you see him back in Van Wert with a very special guest and hometown music legend.

FINÉ.
