Parr to perform Thursday

Charlie Parr will engage an audience at Armory Square, starting at 7:30 p.m. Thursday, Sept. 19. Many people play roots music, but few modern musicians live those roots like Minnesota's Charlie Parr. Recording since the earliest days of the 21st century, Parr's heartfelt and plaintive original folk blues and traditional spirituals don't strive for authenticity: They are authentic. Advance tickets are available online at https://parr.eventbrite.com , at Smoky Hills Art in Downtown Park Rapids or Terrapin Station in Nevis.
