Arts Center of Cannon County

The Arts Center of Cannon County offers a weekend of music with the Annie Moses Band Friday Night and The Mink Slide Band Saturday night.

The Annie Moses Band, which performs at 7:30 Friday night, is comprised of five Juilliard-trained musicians from the same family tree with a sound all their own. Called Chamber Pop, the band plays a spicy blend of classical, jazz, and pop mixed with some old-fashioned country.

Named after the area on Murfreesboro’s Vine Street where weekly Friday night dances took place before World War II, the Mink Slide musicians play the same mix of blues, gospel, country, and ragtime that characterized rural roots music before commercialism broke it into marketable pieces.

The Mink Slide Band takes the stage at 7:30 Saturday night.

Ticket prices for either performance are $12 for adults, $10 for seniors, students and groups of ten or more.

The Arts Center is located on 1424 John Bragg Highway, just west of the town of Woodbury, approximately 20 minutes from Murfreesboro.

 For reservations or more information, visit www.artscenterofcc.com or call 615-563-(ARTS) 2787 or 1-800-235-9073.
