USU Choirs are Going Country for Fall Concert

Utah State University choirs are going country this year for their annual fall concert. “Gone Country” will feature some of the most popular country music hits for all to enjoy on Wednesday, Oct. 1, at 7:30 p.m. in the Kent Concert Hall on USU’s Logan campus.

“Celebrate the fall season with choral music performed by the Gone Country band,” said Cory Evans, director of the choral program and professor in the Caine College of the Arts (CCA). “We will also feature grand master fiddler champion Laura Waters, dancers from the USU Country Swing Club, a high-spirited Wild West show and lots of folks wearing boots.”

Evans said the audience will hear turns from Johnny Cash, Brad Paisley, Kenny Chesney, Dixie Chicks, Lady Antebellum, Nitty Gritty Dirt Band and more.

“The USU Choirs will shed their traditional black tuxes and dresses for boots and jeans and a night of Wild West fun,” said Evans. “Don’t miss this one!”

Tickets for Gone Country are $10 adults, $8 seniors and youth, $5 USU faculty and staff and free for USU students with ID. For tickets or more information, visit the CCA Box Office in room 139-B of the Chase Fine Arts Center on USU’s Logan campus, call 435-797-8022 or see the college’s Production Services website.
