Larry G. Davis returns for annual tribute concert


ASHEBORO – Guitar virtuoso Larry G. Davis and his musical pals will present the 16th Annual Glenn Davis Memorial Concert at 7 p.m. Tuesday, April 7, at the Sunset Theatre in downtown Asheboro.
              
The concert honors the memory of Larry Davis’s father,  Glenn Davis, a renowned banjo player whose picking was recorded by the Smithsonian Institution.

It’s free and the public is invited; audience members are invited to bring a canned food item to be donated to the Christians United Outreach Center (CUOC).

The first half of the show will feature Southern gospel music by Bob Wood and Full Surrender. Then Davis will take the stage with  trumpet player and vocalist Gary Hastings for a set of jazz standards.

Bassist Paul Foster and drummer Dave Sheaffer will round out the jazz band.

The concert is sponsored by the Friends of the Library and Furr Enterprises.


The Sunset Theatre is located at 234 Sunset Avenue.
