January 27 (Sunday, 3:00 p.m.) – 2007–2008 Concert Series, “Poultry in Motion: Music from the Appalachian Heritage” – Get ready for fun as this group presents a program of traditional Appalachian and old-time music, from its Scots-Irish roots to present-day influences. Led by Charlotte’s own Jon Singleton playing banjo and fiddle, Poultry in Motion includes Atlanta-based ballad singer Leila Lazenby, upright bassist Robbie Link, and special guests. This should prove to be a toe-tapping celebration of mountain music at its best.
