MOREHEAD, Ky. — Morehead State Public Radio (MSPR) will present “An Americana Homecoming Concert” on Friday, Nov. 27, at the Morehead Conference Center, 111 East First Street.

Performing will be traditional Appalachian folk duo Ann and Phil Case; old-time traditional group Whiskey Bent Valley Boys; and Bluegrass group Bobby Maynard and Breakdown.

Ann and Phil Case have been singing and playing music together since 1990. They specialize in singing old-time Appalachian duets, old-fashioned parlor songs and Depression-era tunes as well as performing old-time instrumental duets.

Hailing from the backwoods of Pewee Valley, the Whiskey Bent Valley Boys pay homage to old-time songs from the tobacco fields to the rivers and iron skillets to moonshine stills. They present a high-energy show to preserve the history and culture of traditional Appalachian music.

For more than 30 years, Maynard has played the Bluegrass music as an accomplished musician on banjo, fiddle, guitar, mandolin and bass. In 2008, he was inducted into the West Virginia Country Music Hall of Fame. Maynard and Breakdown perform toe-tapping, upbeat, original and traditional Bluegrass songs.

Doors will open at 6:30 p.m. with show time set for 7 p.m.

Admission will be $5 with children 12 and under admitted for free. There will be concessions and door prizes.
