Country music legend, Don Williams, will be performing at the H. Ric Luhrs Performing Arts Center at Shippensburg University this Saturday, March 22 at 8 PM. Opening for Williams is singer-songwriter, Colm Kirwan (colmkirwanmusic). Don Williams was playing guitar by age 12, taught by his mother, and performed in Folk, Country and Rock bands as a teenager. He first gained musical attention as a member of the Pop Folk trio The Pozo Seco Singers, which had six Pop chart hits in the late 60’s. In the 70’s, 80’s and 90’s, Don had a string of hits including “Good Ole Boys Like Me,” “Till the Rivers All Run Dry,” and “It Must Be Love.” The hundreds of memorable songs in Williams’ repertoire – over 50 of them major hits – whether contemplative ballads, affecting love songs or change-up rhythm numbers, have always been a core Don Williams strength and focus. They came to call Don Williams “the Gentle Giant” in the decades he was a dominating Country hit maker because of his unique blend of commanding presence and his laid-back, easy style. Williams received Country music’s highest honor in 2010, with his induction into the Country Music Hall of Fame. Read more about Don Williams at don-williams.
