Description

Verlon Thompson in Concert. Bill Metts opens oin us for an evening with a True-badour, Verlon Thompson! Songwriters seem to flourish on the fertile Oklahoma plains. Woody Guthrie, Roger Miller, Leon Russell, J.J. Cale and Jimmy Webb. Add Verlon Thompson to that list. Thirty years as a professional songwriter and traveling troubadour serve as credentials. As a solo performer, and as the trusted sidekick of Texas Americana songwriting icon Guy Clark, Verlon has viewed the world from stages everywhere from Barcelona to Binger (his hometown in Oklahoma). In 2019 Verlon hosted his own 13 episode TV show called Barnegie Hall. Filmed at his converted barn/home in rural Tennessee, the show aired nationally on PBS and received rave reviews. Welcome back, Verlon! verlonthompson.com ACMA member/musician, Bill Metts, will open the show. Bill has been playing guitar, singing and songwriter for over 40 years. As a musician and educator in our community he is a gift! Masks required in the venue. We prefer attendees be vaccinated.
