Country music group THE OAK RIDGE BOYS RACE return to the Morris Performing Arts Center, South Bend, Indiana, for one performance on Sunday, June 14, at 7:00 p.m.

Few Country music groups have had the enduring popularity, cultural significance, or crossover success of THE OAK RIDGE BOYS. With their first Number 1 hit "I'll Be True To You," the Oak Ridge Boys showcased a vocal harmony steeped in tradition and cutting edge at the same time. The 1981 stratospheric rise of "Elvira" to the top of the Country and Pop charts brought them one of their five Grammy Awards, went double Platinum and cemented the Oaks in Country Music History. Bass singer Richard Sterban's unforgettable "oom papa, oom papa, mau-mau" refrain is one of the most recognizable chorus' in music. Members of the Grand Ole Opry and the newest inductees into the Country Music Hall of Fame, the Oak Ridge Boys are true living legends.

Their classic songs include: "Trying to Love Two Women," "Beautiful You," "Fancy Free," "I Guess It Never Hurts To Hurt Sometimes," "Make My Life With You," "Touch A Hand, Make A Friend," and "It Takes A Little Rain (To Make Love Grow)," "American Made," and "Thank God For Kids."

With Over 40 years together, Duane Allen, Joe Bonsall, Richard Sterban and William Lee Golden have had more than 30 Top 10 singles, 12 gold records, 3 platinum albums, 1 double platinum album and double-platinum single plus 5 Grammy's and many CMA and ACM awards.
