Ladies and gentlemen. This past Thursday evening was astounding. Jackson County's own, The Liars Bench, pulled in a full house at it's inaugural show at WCUs Mountain Heritage Center. "On the Wings of a Snow White Dove" was the theme and the audience loved it. Here's the pictures to prove it.
Paul Iarussi opens the show with "I'll fly Away."
The Passmores and friends--good old gospel music!
World famous Cherokee story teller Lloyd Arneach enthralls the crowd with the Cullowhee "Him-a-layin' possum" and the "Possum and the Turtle."
Gary with Steve Brady accompanying recitating "Go Down Death."

The appreciative audience. Loyal fans, one and all!
