Black Box Songwriter Series: The Traveling Red River Songwriters

An annual favorite, the Traveling Red River Songwriters return to the Lewisville Grand Theater on Friday, Jan. 16, for another intimate Black Box Songwriter Series concert featuring Susan Gibson, Josh Grider, Drew Kennedy, Kelley Mickwee and Walt Wilkins. Each a distinguished songwriter in their own right, the group shares the stage in a unique song swap format – playing their music, telling stories, and supporting one another in an evening of incredible songs. This year’s concert will take place in the Huffines Performance Hall with reserved seating.

“The songwriters shape their distinctive songwriting voices around an Americana core — country for Grider, storytelling and emotion for Wilkins, pop with literate lyrics for Kennedy, rhythm-and-blues for Mickwee and country folk for Gibson — that allows them to mix and mingle.” – Waco Tribute-Herald
