What do bell bottoms, macramé, leisure suits, and platform shoes have in common? They all lived (and died!) in the Seventies. Well watch out, New River Valley, because we’re bringing the ’70’s back in concerts fit for THIS decade.

The theme of our spring/summer 2018 concerts will be “Yesterday Once More”. We’re going to revisit the great musical legacy that was the Seventies: hits that stole our hearts and burned up the charts by Glen Campbell, B.J. Thomas, Gladys Knight & the Pips, 3 Dog Night, The Commodores, and many others!

We’ve now set all the dates, times, & places for our major Spring/Summer 2018 concerts. We are happy to announce that we will be appearing in Blacksburg in mid-April. See below for details. We might have additional appearances, so check back here for specific date/time/place concert announcements as they develop.

Or, better still, join us for practice Tuesdays at 7 pm. That way you’ll be sure to get our scheduling info as soon as it’s firmed up.

Northside Presbyterian Church

1107 Progress Street, NW

Blacksburg, VA 24060

Our joint concert at Northside Presbyterian Church in Blacksburg with handbell and chime ensemble, Clangin’ Around was groovy, man! Tie-dyed t-shirts were in full bloom as we previewed our spring program featuring hits of the Seventies and more. Asa Balliett blew everyone away with his sparkling viola solo on “Dust in the Wind”. Lesa Gardner sang a soulful “Take Me Back”, and everyone felt the spirit move with a piano/organ duet of Negro spirituals featuring our new accompanist, Jonathan Elmore on piano, and director Thomas DeBusk on organ.
