Carlene Carter Returns to Thrasher Opera House
Carlene Carter, a member of country music royalty (granddaughter of Maybelle Carter of the original Carter Family, daughter of June Carter and Carl Smith, stepdaughter of Johnny Cash), will perform at the historic Thrasher Opera House in downtown Green Lake on Saturday, April 2 at 7:30 p.m.
Carlene Carter comes full circle with her latest release, Carter Girl, on Rounder Records. Carlene said it was her lifelong goal to make this record. “The songs on the album cover three generations of Carter Family music,” she explains. “The original Carter Family (A.P., Sara, and Maybelle); Momma’s ‘Tall Lover Man’ and Aunt Helen’s ‘Poor Old Heartsick Me‘; then two of mine: ‘Me and the Wildwood Rose‘ and a new song about Momma and John’s passing called ‘Lonesome Valley 2003.’”
Butzin Marchant of Ripon is sponsoring Carlene’s show. This event is also supported in part by a grant from the Oshkosh Area Community Foundation and the Wisconsin Arts Board with funds from the State of Wisconsin and the National Endowment for the Arts.
Tickets for the concert are $40 and available at www.thrasheroperahouse.com or by calling the office at 920.294.4279
