Toccoa, GA – December
2. It’s beginning to sound a lot
like Christmas. Country duo Wilson Fairchild is bringing their Christmas show
to Toccoa for a Night at the Ritz performance on Saturday, December 7th
at 7:00pm at the Historic Ritz Theatre.
The musical duo, made up of Wil and Langdon Reid are
often referred to as “the Reid boys.” They get their “entertainment chops”
honestly. Wil’s dad is Harold Reid and Langdon’s dad is Don Reid of the
legendary Statler Brothers. The duo have
been writing, performing, and playing music together their whole lives. In
2007, Wil and Langdon wrote a tribute to the Statlers simply called “The
Statler Brothers Song.” They were asked to be a part of the medallion
ceremonies and to perform the song for all of their “Statler dads” when the
Brothers were inducted into the Gospel Music Hall of Fame and the Country Music
Hall of Fame.
From the last few
years to the present, Wil and Langdon keep adding successes to their resume, as
well as friends and fans to their Facebook page. Their engaging
personalities coupled with their musical talent and impromptu wit is a
perfect match for any audience. For 3 1/2 years, they opened the show for the
one and only George Jones, graced the stage of the Grand Ole Opry, and been
featured on Larry’s Country Diner on RFD-TV.
Night at the Ritz, a regular event series at the Historic
Ritz Theatre, is funded in part, by generous grants received from the National
Endowment for the Arts and the Georgia Council for the Arts. Tickets for this event are available at the
Toccoa/Stephens County Welcome Center, on our website, ritztheatretoccoa.com or
at the box office night of show. For
