In the same tradition as the traveling road shows during the glory days of the Grand Ole Opry, Branson On The Road entertains with Country, Bluegrass, Rockabilly, and hand-clappin’ Gospel music, along with a heapin’ dose of hilarious comedy with your Branson co-hosts Debbie Horton & Donnie Wright. Debbie holds the distinction of being the only woman to have ever played lead guitar for Johnny Cash! With fiddle, mandolin, guitar, banjo, upright slap bass, and the great songs you know and love, Branson On The Road is an evening of music, laughs, and fun for the entire family. http://www.monroeartscenter.com |
