Performing Arts Live Iredell’s 2022-2023 concert season will begin with music and celebration at the Statesville Civic Center on Sunday, August 28.

Bring friends, dance and sing along with the Cindy and Randy Floyd Trio with Gene Pharr. This group has been entertaining audiences for ten years with their soulful blend of Motown, soul, blues, beach music and oldies. For many years, Cindy and Randy toured and recorded with the legendary Billy Scott and The Party Prophets, while Gene (a Carolina Beach Music Hall of Famer) entertained with his band, The Continental Divide.

The evening will begin with Red Carpet photos, along with appetizers, beer and wine. Doors open at 5 p.m.

A buffet by LKN Catering will begin at 6:30 p.m. with dinner music provided by Performing Arts Live Artist Development recipients. Silent Auction proceeds will benefit the PAL Artist Development Fund, which fosters regional, school age artists through top-notch professional instruction and guidance.

The PAL Mainstage Season will be announced with a video presentation featuring the six groups that will perform in Statesville between September 2022 and April 2023.
