The Oak Ridge Boys Return to the Grand!

The Grand 1894 Opera House presents two performances by country legends, The Oak Ridge Boys Saturday, January 21, 2017 at 7:30 p.m., and Sunday, January 22, 2017 at 3 p.m.

One of country music's longest-running groups, The Oak Ridge Boys have one of the most distinctive and recognizable sounds in the music industry. Their four-part harmonies and upbeat songs have resulted in dozens of Country hits, earning them Grammy, Dove, CMA, and ACM awards and garnering them a host of other industry and fan accolades. The Oak Ridge Boys were honoured this year as 2015 Inductees in the Country Music Hall of Fame.

The legacy of "The Oaks" extends back to the end of World War II. The current group - which consists of lead singer Duane Allen, bass singer Richard Sterban, tenor Joe Bonsall and baritone William Lee Golden - have performed together for more than 40 years. They have produced more than 30 top 10 hit songs, 12 gold records, three platinum records, one double-platinum album, and a double-platinum single, with combined sales totalling 41 million records. They released a live album in April 2014, Boys Night Out, and their 2015 CD, Rock of Ages, features 15 new and classic hymns and gospel songs. Their newest CD, Celebrate Christmas, was released in October 2016.

Listed on the National Register of Historic Places, The Grand 1894 Opera House is located at 2020 Postoffice Street in Galveston's historic downtown Cultural Arts District and is recognized as "The Official Opera House of the State of Texas."
