RE: Season 5 Night at the Ritz begins September 10th

Toccoa, GA August 9 – Are you ready for those country roads to take you home or feel some sunshine on your shoulders? Then join us Friday, September 10^th at 7pm when, Jim Curry presents the Music of John Denver, kicks off Season 5 of Night at the Ritz at the Historic Ritz Theatre.

Jim Curry is not your usual “Vegas style” impersonator. In fact, he is not an impersonator at all. Jim sings, in his own natural voice, a tribute to the music in a way that has to be seen and heard to understand the pure honesty of his amazing performance. His looks and his voice are simply a pleasant coincidence that captures the true essence of John Denver’s music. Curry’s heartfelt delivery rolls out into the crowd as multi-platinum hits like “Rocky Mountain High,” “Annie’s Song” and “Calypso” fill the room. “Take me Home Country Roads” gave America a new lift abroad as well as at home. People all over the world found pride in the natural wonders of the earth and love for John’s message of caring for our planet and each other. Jim has created the ultimate tribute experience and has emerged as the top performer of John Denver’s music today.
