If you enjoy Big Band music, you definitely don't want to miss the Tulsa Praise Orchestra this weekend with brand new material along with traditional favorites, including patriotic. The orchestra is made up of musicians who profess faith in Jesus Christ and love playing Big Band style.
This year marks their 25th season. They've taken their brand from Tulsa to Branson to New York City, and this weekend's show includes Saturday in Broken Arrow, OK, 2:00 at the Performing Arts Center. Then on Sunday the concert is at the Independence Memorial Hall this Sunday at 6:00pm.
Owner & Organinzer Bob Archer says you can reserve your free tickets online at www.ringsingswing.com. But he also added they will NOT turn you away at this point if you show up without a ticket!
If you'd really like to get a ticket in your hands, they are available here at KGGF in Coffeyville (Saturday hours are only until 11am), many retail stores on Pennsylvania Ave., and at the Montgomery County Chronicle office in Independence.
Saxophone player Alan McKenzie says it's a great event that recognizes america and our vetrans in a manor that everyone in the whole family will enjoy.
