Kenny Rogers Lights Up the Holidays with Hits at Ford Center

1

EVANSVILLE, IN – The timeless Kenny Rogers brought his festive Christmas & Hits Through The Years with special guest Linda Davis to Evansville tonight. The audience cheered as he began the evening with “Love or Something Like It” and went on to perform other signature hits including “Lady” and “Ruby, Don’t Take Your Love To Town.” Of course the evening wouldn’t have been complete without Kenny’s 1978 smash hit “The Gambler,” and he had the audience singing along to “Islands in the Stream,” his hit duet with Dolly Parton.

Getting into the holiday spirit, Kenny delighted fans by performing traditional Christmas tunes such as “Let It Snow” and “Mary, Did You Know.” A special treat for the audience was seeing local students from The Signature High School Choir and Scott Elementary School perform “Silent Night” and “Joy to the World” alongside Kenny and Linda.

 

 

“Our annual Christmas concert is about inspiring Christmas cheer within our community, and having talented artists like Kenny Rogers and Linda Davis on stage with students from our local schools definitely brought everything full circle,” said Ford Center Executive Director Scott Schoenike.

Upcoming events at the Ford Center include Monster Jam January 10-11, Miranda Lambert: Certified Platinum Tour January 15, The Harlem Globetrotters January 18, Winter Jam 2015 January 29, Luke Bryan: That’s My Kind of Night Tour February 11, Disney on Ice: Princesses & Heroes February 19-22, and Volbeat May 19.
