The Summer Concerts at the Brasstown Community Center continue with a new band, the Gladson Family. Doors open at 6 p.m. with music at 7 p.m. on Saturday, July 29.
The Gladson Family Band from Knoxville, Tennessee plays traditional bluegrass and gospel music. Performing fiddle tunes, breakdowns and nostalgic songs of the past, they are sure to entertain crowds of all ages.
The band consists of Todd and Juliet Gladson playing guitar and singing, their children Harlen on banjo, Lindy on the fiddle and Lemuel on a mandolin.
A special shout-out to Julie’s Place, in Peachtree, N.C. that “feels like home.” They have provided their support in bringing this new music to you.
Admission is $10, children under 12 are free. Hot dog plates, including a drink, homemade cobbler, ice cream and root beer floats will be available for purchase.
Fund-raiser concerts are held May through August on the second and fourth Saturdays, except in July when dates had to be shifted.
The center is a non-profit and all proceeds from the concerts and facility rentals are for maintenance and upkeep of the building.
