After-hours Concert: The Twangtown Paramours
August 30 @ 6:30 pm – 7:30 pm
The Twangtown Paramours are a national touring, award-winning husband and wife duo and band from Nashville. Their music is a blend of Nashville, New York, and Austin influences and has been called “Soulful Americana”. Join the DeKalb Public Library in the main lobby as they welcome this band for the first time to perform an after-hours concert!
Some of the Twangtown Paramours’ tunes are poetic, but many are just a whole lot of fun. Recently, other artists have begun recording their songs. They are 3-time Kerrville New Folk finalists and winners of the Wildflower Contest in Richardson, TX. Their newest full band album, “Double Down on a Bad Thing” was #11 on the U.K Indie Blues chart last year and #18 on the U.S. RMR Contemporary Blues chart.
MaryBeth sang background vocals for the late Eva Cassidy. Mike is a session musician, songwriter, and producer, and is the author of a #1 platinum selling pop ballad in Korea. He also sometimes plays upright bass for Jimmie Dale Gilmore.
This concert is free and open to all. It is sponsored by the Friends of the Library. Doors will open at 6:00 p.m. and music will begin at 6:30 p.m. Refreshments will be served.
