Huntertones to bring ‘explosive, imaginative’ music to Austin Peay’s Mabry Concert Hall
(Posted on Monday, April 4, 2022)
The Clarksville Community Concert Association’s 70th anniversary season continues with a concert by Huntertones, a “soulful, tasty and groovy” genre-defying band that delivers high-energy, horn-driven music.
The band will perform at 7:30 p.m., Saturday, April 9, in the George and Sharon Mabry Concert Hall, at the corner of Marion and Eighth streets at Austin Peay State University.
The performance is open to everybody, and advance tickets are available at the Clarksville Community Concert Association’s (CCCA) website, www.clarksvillemusic.org.
Fresh, invigorating and inspiring, Huntertones’ music has been praised as “soulful, tasty and groovy,” and “explosive, imaginative and genre-defying.” Co-founder Jon Lampley, who plays with Jon Batiste and Stay Human on “The Late Show with Stephen Colbert,” said, “You might hear a little Snarky Puppy or Led Zeppelin,or the Dirty Dozen Brass Band or gospel music or swinging jazz.”
The Huntertones concert culminates the 61st Mid-South Jazz Festival – an annual event sponsored by Austin Peay’s Center of Excellence for the Creative Arts.
The festival also includes a free performance by the APSU Jazz Collective at 7:30 p.m. on Thursday, April 7, and a free performance by the APSU Jazz Collegians at 7:30 p.m. on Friday, April 8. Both performances are in the Mabry Concert hall.
And at 4 p.m. on the day of the Huntertones concert, the band will lead a jazz clinic for Austin Peay music students.
Ticket discounts for the Huntertones concert are available for educators, military members and seniors. Austin Peay students are admitted to CCCA concerts free with ID. Other college students pay only $5.
