Bluegrass Gospel Project music to perform in Peru

The Bluegrass Gospel Project will be performing at the Peru Community Church on Friday, February 11, 2011. The concert will begin at 7:30 p.m. and offer two 45-minute sets of music with an intermission. The location is 13 Elm Street in Peru, NY. A portion of the proceeds of this concert will benefit the church’s arts council fund. Tickets are available at the door on the evening of the performance: $8 general admission, $5 for seniors, students, and children.

The Bluegrass Gospel Project’s debut performance was at First Night Burlington in 2001.  Since that time, the band has delighted audiences throughout the northeastern U.S., as well as in nearby Quebec.  The BGP recently performed for former president George W. Bush and Associate Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas at a private function in the Adirondacks. Read more »
