The Larry Keeton Theatre Announces the Larry Keeton Live Music Series.

Friday, May 15, it's a night of the New faces of Country with MamaDear and Carly Pearce.

Carly Pearce was born to the bluegrass sounds of Kentucky in the land that Keith Whitley, Bill Monroe, and the Judds hail from. She's got a pure tone and delivery that harkens back to artists such as the Dixie Chicks. The Judds. Sara Evans. Sonya Isaacs. Trisha Yearwood and Patty Loveless.

The trio of young singer/songwriters known collectively as MamaDear is creating a buzz and amassing fans up and down the east coast with their well-crafted original songs, exuberant stage performance and sterling harmonies. After meeting through a  mentoring group with award-winning songwriter Tom Douglas (“The House That Built Me”), Parker Bradway, Kelly Tillotson, and Daniel Wilson discovered that musical magic happened when they collaborated. From their decision to be a band, while gathered on a front porch in Nashville in 2012, to playing the AT&T Stage at CMA Fest 2014, MamaDear has stirred audiences with breath of fresh country air. This trio has traveled throughout the country, playing many colleges, clubs and other venues and opening up for bands such as Thompson Square, Will Hoge, and Jason Michael Carroll. ost recently, MamaDear was noted as the "Best Up-and-Comer" at CMA Fest 2014 on RollingStone.com. They have since signed on with Creative Artist Agency and Morris Higham Management.
