WCG welcomes Shades of Green
Friday night! |
Shades of Green consists of the
vocal and instrumental talents of Karen Waldrup and Elise
Thornton. "Our project is primarily acoustic and we are
proud to say that we developed our style based on our
differences as musicians." Karen is originally from
Mandeville, Louisiana. She currently lives in Hattiesburg
and attends USM. She started singing when she was just 5
years old, taking any opportunities given to her, church and
school choirs, church bands etc. Karen is an amazing
vocalist, and even more importantly she is an amazing person
with a wonderful spirit and a passion for music. She plays
guitar and she is constantly writing new songs. "The first
time I heard Karen sing I knew we would go somewhere
together." Elise is originally from Hattiesburg. She
currently lives in Seminary and attends USM. She has been
playing guitar for eight years and she is a local guitar
teacher. She has been writing music for years and the first
time they met, their musical careers collided! "Elise is not
only my other half in my musical career, but also my best
friend..." -Karen

Dan Sanchez and the Kings of Pleasure
perform Saturday night! |
Dan Sanchez and the Kings of
Pleasure - Amazing . . . spectacular . . . impressive . .
. spirited . . . soulful. . . on any given night, these
are the words that will resonate as the sounds from one of
the most impressive musical ensembles on the road today
not only permeates a room, but the souls of those there to
witness it. It's an experience that leaves an indelible
mark and an insatiable lust for more. Which makes the name
of the band absolutely perfect. Because when Dan Sanchez
and the Kings of Pleasure take the stage, you can be
certain that absolute pleasure is just ahead.
The kings consist of Donald
Durham, Jason Ball, Cody Lowery. Sanchez and bassist
Durham grew up together in Los Angeles, California. In
2001, they decided to follow their passion and make great
music. A band was formed and the tandem invited Ball to
sit in on keyboards; he has been playing piano as a king
ever since. Don and Cody's percussion fill out the
rhythmic backbone of the kings, sealing a sound that is
both mesmerizing and energizing.
