The Time Jumpers bring their lively take on classic western swing and old-school country to the Van Wezel on February 8, 2015. TICKETS ON SALE FRIDAY, MARCH 21, 2014 @ 10AM.

The Time Jumpers currently consist of 11 band members, featuring Vince Gill (vocals, electric & acoustic guitars), "Ranger Doug" Green (vocals, acoustic rhythm guitar), Dawn Sears (vocals), and Kenny Sears (vocals, fiddle). The Time Jumpers were established in Nashville in 1998, they began as a group of talented musicians who wanted to jam together and kick back at the Station Inn on the quiet Monday nights. Soon Monday nights were sounding like Saturday nights and were packed with exuberant crowds. Word spread along Music Row and big stars began dropping by, some to sit in with the band and others to enjoy the sweet music. Among those drop-ins were Bonnie Raitt, Reba McEntire, Norah Jones, Robert Plant, The White Stripes, Kings of Leon, Jimmy Buffet and Kelly Clarkson.

The Time Jumpers-the band's new and first album for Rounder Records-is also the group's first studio project. Their live album- Jumpin' Time, released in 2007-earned them two Grammy nominations! The Rounder album reveals a side of the Time Jumpers that's largely gone unheralded-that is the members' ability to write vivid new songs in the stylistic vein of the standards they love to perform.

The super group of exceptional musicians brings you the quintessence of Nashville. With an evening packed with musical delight, The Time Jumpers performance will be a night to remember!

Tickets are priced from $15-$50. For more information, call the Box Office at 941-953-3368 or visit www.VanWezel.org.
