LIFE + STYLE

buzz-concertsThe stage will rock with country favorites when “Live From Nashville” comes to the Jabez S. Hardin Performing Arts Center Friday, January 8. Singers and dancers, along with a band of Nashville musicians, will cover songs by country music icons such as Patsy Cline and Hank Williams, Johnny Cash and Dolly Parton. The production is designed to celebrate a century of stars and songs from Music City.

Another music legend, Glenn Miller, will be honored on Friday, January 22 when the Glenn Miller Orchestra takes the stage. The popular bandleader played to sellout crowds before his plane disappeared in a 1944 flight across the English Channel. The present Glenn Miller Orchestra was formed in 1956, and it has been touring the globe consistently ever since. The band will perform classic Miller tunes such as “In the Mood,” “Chattanooga Choo Choo,” “A String of Pearls,” “Moonlight Serenade” and “Tuxedo Junction.”

The performances begin at 7:30 p.m. Tickets, which cost $43 for each concert, are available by visiting augustaamusements.com or by calling (706) 726-0366.
