MOUNT CARROLL – Timber Lake Playhouse in association with Timber Lake Resort and Ron Swanson will present the award winning country music group, Farewell Angelina, in concert for a one night only concert at 7:00 p.m. on Saturday May 21st. Farewell Angelina is an all-female country quartet featuring four women who are each award-winning songwriters, dynamic singers and multi-instrumentalists.
Band members Nicole Witt, Andrea Young and Elizabeth Elkins teamed up with noted Nashville harmony singer and solo artist Lisa Torres in late 2014. Their clear writing, creative drive and incendiary performances caught the ears and eyes of producers Jen Ketner and Keith Stegall (Zac Brown Band, Alan Jackson, Darius Rucker).
The band members have had songs recorded by George Strait, Lee Brice and Billy Currington, and their instrumental and vocal talents have graced and enhanced country stars including Jason Aldean, Trace Adkins, Josh Thompson, Jana Kramer, Frankie Ballard and Jarrod Niemann.
Together the band’s magic blend of a multitude of stringed instruments and unique harmonies has taken Nashville by storm. 2016 marks the release of their debut single and EP on Stegall’s Dreamlined Entertainment.
The concert at Timber Lake Playhouse is only $20.00 and will begin at 7:00 p.m. with a cash bar opening at 6:30.
On Sunday, May 22, the playhouse will host a casual evening for the public to “Meet the Company.” Artistic Director James Beaudry will introduce the 55th Resident Company that will produce the playhouse’s mainstage summer season. Company members from across the country will perform the material they used to audition. The evening begins at 7:00 p.m., and admission is $10.00 at the door.
TLP’s 55th summer season officially kicks off June 2nd with the golden age musical classic Gypsy. The season also includes Having Our Say: The Delany Sisters’ First 100 Years, Rock of Ages, A Funny Thing Happened on the Way to the Forum, Titanic and Gaslight.
