SOLD OUT - March 6 at 7:30 PM - Comedian James Gregory - The Funniest Man in America - Performing home-spun comedy to sold-out crowds across America
The James Gregory show turns the clock back to a time when life was simpler, to a better time, before the death of common sense and the proliferation of political correctness; a time when people sat on the front porch and actually talked to each other. Gregory's unique brand of humor packs the crowds into his sold-out shows. When Gregory applies his wry humor to the ridiculous, the common, and sometimes even the simplest event, the result is hilarious. We're thrilled to present Comedian James Gregory at Krider Performing Arts Center.

April 4 at 7:00 PM - Confederate Railroad in Concert
Tickets are: $35 Advance / $40 Door for General Seating.
$50 Advance / $55 Door for Premier Seating.
Confederate Railroad first rolled onto the national country music scene in the early 90's with its unique style and sound. Headed by founder and front man Danny Shirley, the former backup band for both David Allan Coe and Johnny Paycheck got their big break by signing with Atlantic Records.
The first single from their debut album ("Confederate Railroad") was "She Took It Like A Man". It went to No. 26, a preview of what was to come. "The next two singles, "Jesus and Mama" and "Queen of Memphis" went to the top of the charts. Three more huge hits followed, "Trashy Women", "When You Leave That Way You Can Never Go Back", and "She Never Cried". "Trashy" would lead to a Grammy nomination and become their signature song. That album with six hits and nearly three million sales brought Confederate the Academy of Country Music's Best New Group Award in 1993 as well as numerous nominations from the Country Music Association and the British Country Music Foundation.
The second album, "Notorious", produced one of the group's most popular songs "Daddy Never Was the Cadillac Kind" which became a No. One video as well. "Elvis and Andy" and "Summer in Dixie" would further establish the Railroad as one of the most versatile acts in the business. This album would sell more than one million. Their overall totals are 18 charted hits and five million albums sold.

SATURDAY, AUGUST 1 at 7:00 PM - TRAVIS LEDOYT - WORLD'S BEST YOUNG ELVIS - IN CONCERT - All Seats $27
Krider Performing Arts Center's Touring Artists Series brings TRAVIS LEDOYT who is heralded as the World's Best at portraying young Elvis Presley in his prime during the '50's and and '60's. His uncanny resemblance to the "King of Rock and Roll" has audiences gasping when the takes the stage. Once he begins to sing and dance, fans are truly captivated by the authenticity of LeDoyt's performance, even garnering high praise from those who knew Elvis personally. Sold Out shows and repeat engagements around the world further attest to LeDoyt's impeccable ability to capture the very essence of "The King" and leave fans wanting more.
LeDoyt, who grew up in Greenfield, Massachusetts, was known as the "class clown" throughout school. Everyone expected him to do something that would put him in the public eye, but no one, including Travis, expected it to be as a singer, let alone a tribute to Elvis Presley.
It all started with a dare to compete in a high school talent show, combined with Travis's discovery of a video of Elvis performing in the '50's. He was intrigued with the look, moves, and voice of the King. He brought Elvis to life at the talent show and it was such a hit, that he immediately began getting offers to perform. Since that time, he has performed around the world in some of the most prestigious venues and in front of thousands upon thousands of fans.
Travis is currently touring with a three-piece band based in Nashville, performing songs from 1954 to 1970. The audience is taken back to a time when things were better, and younger generations are exposed to the music and the excitement Elvis brought to the stage. It is truly a family-friendly show.
The biggest compliment LeDoyt has received came from D. J. Fontana, who was Elvis Presley's drummer in the '50's, who said, "This is as close as you'll get to seeing a concert by Elvis Presley in the early years." Other accolades come from the New York Times, which chose LeDoyt as the person who most looked like Elvis for a photo shoot and from entertainment reporter Ken Fuson of the Des Moines Register who reported, "I heard people all day talking about Travis LeDoyt, so I went to see for myself. I thought Elvis was dead, but I tell you he's alive - I just saw him perform."
