LATEST BUZZ ON AN EXCITING BLUEGRASS FUSION BAND
The Petersens, an Ozarks bluegrass band with a worldwide Youtube following, is bringing a lively Christmas show to sellout crowds in the Dallas-Fort Worth area.
The band specializes in "American roots" music, blending the old and the new into what some see as a new genre in the making. Their gaiety keeps crowds smiling and tapping their feet to the well-crafted performances, which are well-known for their family-pleaser style.
Christmas With The Petersens will be showing at the Palace Arts Center, Grapevine, at 7 p.m. on Saturday, Dec, 18, and at 3 p.m. and again at 7:30 p.m. on Sunday, Dec. 19. All shows are scheduled for an hour and a half. Many tickets, priced at $28 a seat, have already been sold.
The youthful band is supported by their mother, Karen Petersen, who plays bass fiddle. She has a large following known as the "Get It Mama Fan Club."
Don't let their youthfulness fool you. These bandmates always put out a tight, top-notch performance.
Good Christmas fun.
