Ed Shipman and Friends at Old Courthouse
Ed Shipman and friends will furnish the entertainment at the Old Courthouse on the Square in Blairsville on August 13. The program will begin at 7:00 p.m.
Most of Ed's repertoire are songs written by Ed, himself, but one can also expect him to include some John Prine songs in his repertoire as well as songs of Steve Gillette, The Nashville Bluegrass Band, and Bob Dylan. He also usually does a song or two by friend, Bill Dale, who has written No. 1 hit songs for people such as Kathy Mattea.
At the Old Courthouse concert, Ed will debut his new CD, Bare Bones. Ed has several other CD’s to his credit such as "No Complications," "Songs from Shuler Creek," "Among Friends," "Living in the Country, High on a Mountain," and "Keepers of the Music." Many of these CD’s will also be available at The Old Courthouse and all of the proceeds from sales will be donated to the maintenance fund of The Old Courthouse.
The Summer Concerts are presented by the Union County Historical Society as a
public service and to keep alive the tradition of music in The Old Courthouse. The
musicians donate their talents and time. While there no required admission charge,
voluntary donations are always welcomed and appreciated.
