John Denver was a troubadour of nature, singing of clear skies and country roads, sunshine, going home and mountain highs. His sweet tenor and rapturous anthems are as welcoming as an old friend, outlasting trends and standing the test of time. His life ended suddenly in a plane crash in 1997 - a tragedy that shocked the world - but his music will live on forever.

Gather your friends and family for a heartfelt tribute to Denver with acclaimed performer Jim Curry and his seven-piece band (mandolin, guitars, flute, bass, drums, percussion, keyboard), celebrating one of the greatest folk-country singer-songwriters ever to grace the stage. The concert is sponsored in-part by Susanne O'Malley.

Curry is a Denver look-alike, sound-alike artist, naturally owning a nearly identical tenor and Rocky Mountain looks. Many may recognize his voice from the CBS-TV movie "Take Me Home: The John Denver Story" as well as at his many sold-out shows throughout the country at theaters and casinos, and his hugely popular concert on the Holland America Cruise Line. The tribute artist is considered today's top performer of Denver's vast legacy of multi-platinum hits, which include "Annie's Song," "Leaving on a Jet Plane," "Rocky Mountain High," "Back Home Again," "Thank God, I'm a Country Boy," "Sunshine on My Shoulders," "Calypso," "Fly Away," Take Me Home Country Roads" and more.

"These songs blend the images of our natural earth with a love for each other as people," Curry says, adding that the Tribute he's crafted is intended to perpetuate Denver's message. "The care you give to someone you love is the best care. Making that connection to our earth and to each other is the goal."

Join Jim Curry and his band in performance of Denver's many timeless hits and his indelible message of caring for the earth and for each other. The concert is at 8 p.m. Friday, November 29 (right after Thanksgiving Day). Excellent seats are available for $79 & $76.
