The Louisiana Hayride Christmas special is rolling into Martin Exeter Hall (behind the Red Coach Inn) in 100 Mile House on Dec. 14 at 1:30 p.m.
Folks love jumping on board when the Louisiana Hayride comes to town.
This unique show will feature some of the most popular hits from the Louisiana Hayride Show, but most importantly, will be filled with your favourite Christmas songs.
Hank Williams has promised to show up and be on his best behaviour for this special show and will be singing a couple of his big hits.
Always a favourite, Patsy Cline will be there with her signature song, Crazy, and one of her favourite Christmas songs, Let It Snow.
Roy Orbison is back with a couple of “pretty” songs: Pretty Paper and Pretty Woman.
Loretta Lynn also promises to make an appearance.
The cast of multi-talented musicians include William Brookfield on double keyboard, guitar and vocals. Folks will be absolutely delighted with Brookfield’s stellar recreation of Christmas songs by Johnny Cash and Jim Reeves, as well as his version of Little Drummer Boy.
Mike Melnichuk adds stand-up bass, electric guitar and incredibly smooth vocals when he treats the audience to songs, such as Have A Holly Jolly Christmas, White Christmas and It’s Beginning to Look A Lot Like Christmas.
Gil Risling adds electric and acoustic guitar and amazing vocals when in character as Hank Williams and Roy Orbison.
Andrea Anderson, whose vocals are second to none as Patsy Cline and Loretta Lynn will bring tears to your eyes with her rendition of How Great Thou Art. She’ll also be singing a couple of other Christmas favourites for your enjoyment.
Woven throughout the songs are fascinating tidbits of information, delightfully presented by your host and creator of the show, Lori Risling.
Tickets are $35 each and are available at Donex, Pharmasave and the 108 Mile Supermarket.
However, you better hurry up and get your tickets before they’re gone.
