Highlights
from March 29, 2007 |
Wonderful husband and wife duo
Bill & Maggie Anderson got the evening's musical
entertainment underway with a fine set of Bluegrass and
Classic Country favorites such as "Little Mountain Church
House", "Wabash Cannonball" and the Carter
Family classic "Keep On The Sunny Side".
Bill and Maggie had already picked and sang on the
Pickin' Porch Show at least once before, and they were
just as entertaining tonight as they were the first time! |
| Next up was the highly popular
Mac Puckett with our own Tim and
Teddy
Helton helping out on banjo and bass respectively.
Mac has a distinctive singing style that sets him apart from
other Bluegrass singers, and as usual he wowed the audience
this evening with his amazing vocal gymnastics! |
| Tim invited Roy Mullins to come up on stage and
play a tune on his trusty harmonica, and Roy returned the
favor by asking Tim to play along with him. He did, and the
result was a very pretty instrumental rendition of "Keep
On The Sunny Side". |
| The hilarious Ed Carter treated the audience to a
couple of his now-famous jokes, and as always he managed to
come up with some pretty interesting facial expressions. Ed
would still crack you up even if you didn't hear a word he
said! |
Finishing off the evening was a group of super-talented
youngsters known as
Gold Heart. The Gold sisters range in age from 11 to
17, but you would never know it by their amazing pickin' and
singin'!
They treated the audience to some of the finest family
harmony I have ever heard on one great song after another,
leaving the crowd wanting to hear a lot more when the show
came to an end. Gold Heart has a bright future ahead of them
in the Bluegrass world, and we hope to see them on the
Pickin' Porch stage again real soon! |
Well, it was yet another fun and exciting evening at the
Pickin' Porch with plenty of music and comedy for all
to enjoy. Next week's show featuring Lightnin' Charlie
and Appalachian Trail promises to be a real barn
burner, so why not come on out to the Bristol Mall next
Thursday and join in the fun?
