Description

Bourbon Country & Wilderness Bridge at Raue Center Café JUNE 13 @ 5-7p FREE ADMISSION! Bourbon Country With a sound as sweet as its name, the acoustic driven duo of Bourbon Country blend ultra-tight harmonies and smooth but driving guitars to give a rich dynamic sound to your favorite past and present country and rock hits. While continuing to deliver country hits from the past and present, Bourbon Country has expanded its sound to deliver an eclectic mix of the best of traditional and modern country, country rock, and acoustic favorites. You’ll hear the boys play memorable hits from traditional country artisans like Johnny Cash and Hank Williams Jr., modern country superstars like Jason Aldean and Florida Georgia Line, country rock tunesmiths like the Eagles and John Denver, pop hitmakers like Elton John, James Taylor, and America. And what acoustic act would be complete without the Beatles? As successful bands and artists do, Bourbon Country continues to evolve, expanding its musical palette but always delivering the best in popular music from multiple styles. Wilderness Bridge As many country music artists do, Wilderness Bridge got its start in church. At the direction of the minister of music of their church, Teresa Barker and Randy Leggee were asked to collaborate for a special service in the church. What they quickly found was a common ground of meaningful music, comfortable collaboration, and harmonies that made the music special. What started in 2015 as primarily a church-based duo, has grown into many musical genres that include, country, classic rock, pop, and most of all, music with meaning. Teresa Barker brings a lifetime of music to Wilderness Bridge. Besides her general love of many types of music, she has taught piano at many levels and currently is a music teacher in the Cary school system. Randy Leggee has been in a variety of bands throughout his 40 years involved in music with multiple levels of performance both individually and in larger show bands. His experience runs from classical to jazz, to rock, and to country music. Together, Teresa and Randy have always had the rich harmonies of music at the forefront of their style, combining acoustic guitars and piano with a wide diversity of music. Beatles, Tim McGraw, Elton John, Keith Urban, and Miranda Lambert are always crowd pleasers, but so is the variety of adding in artists like Bob Dylan, Brandi Carlisle, Coldplay, and Cyndi Lauper. Wilderness Bridge always seeks out interesting music that pleases the widest audience.
