Positive Country Live! presents a star-studded country concert event at The Capitol Theatre, located at 110 W. Main St., Lebanon, on Sunday, May 7.
Billed as “Amazing Voices Making Joyful Noises,” the show will feature performers including Larry Gatlin, Collin Raye, T. Graham Brown, John Berry, Doug Mathis, Jon Brennan, Glen Templeton, Val Storey and Hunter Lott.
Collin Raye
Mathis, a proponent of the “positive country” genre—country music with messages of faith, family and home—is the founder and host of Positive Country and an online radio station and YouTube series promoting such tunes. As a senior in high school, Mathis began performing at Opryland USA. He went on to become senior pastor and a minister of music at several churches across the South prior to rededicating his career as a full-time performer.
Country and Southern gospel singer-songwriter Larry Gatlin achieved considerable success as part of the Gatlin Brothers trio, as well as a solo artist, and is known for “Broken Lady,” “All the Gold in California,” “Houston (Means I’m One Day Closer to You),” “She Used to Be Somebody’s Baby” and other country hits recorded in the 1970s and 1980s.
T. Graham Brown and Larry Gatlin
Collin Raye made his solo debut in 1991 with the album All I Can Be, which produced his first Number One hit, “Love, Me.” It was the first of four consecutive albums released by Raye to achieve platinum certification. Between 1991 and 2007, Raye charted 30 singles on the U.S. country charts.
T. Graham Brown has recorded a total of 13 studio albums, and has charted more than 20 singles on the Billboard Hot Country Songs chart.
The Sunday, May 7, concert begins at 7 p.m. and tickets are $35. For tickets, more information on the performers and updates on future Positive Country concerts, visit positivecountrylive.com.
