     Bluegrass bands love to perform at the Historic Collins Theatre in Paragould, AR. And "Bluegrass Monday" (4th Monday of each month except December) provides a perfect opportunity. KASU 91.9 FM and Program Director Marty Scarbrough, who heads up Bluegrass Monday, have their offices on the campus of Arkansas State University in Jonesboro, AR. Marty selects top-quality bands and performers to play throughout 11 months of the year. The theatre prepares the usual theatre snacks and sodas, the price of admission is at least five dollars (put in more if you can), the sound man provides great sound, and you just know you're going to be royally entertained. There's a first set, a refreshments pause where you can buy snacks at the stand, and CDs which are at the band's table, then a final set for the evening. It's just downright delightful!

      

NOTE: The concert will be broadcast on radio on Sunday, December 1, 2019, at about 12:30 pm CT on 91.9 FM and www.kasu.org on the program called "Down Home Harmonies" hosted by Mr. Scarbrough.

       Many readers of this blog already know about NO TIME FLATT, but let us review quickly: Together now for almost five years, several friends from the Jackson, TN, area decided to see what might work for them as a band. It was one of those ideas that just clicked! Several people had already played bluegrass together before, but this time it was really serious. The band members are as follows: Kevin Wright (Humboldt, TN, guitar, vocals), Patrick Cupples (Dyersburg, TN, upright bass, vocals), Becky Weaver (Montezuma, TN, fiddle, vocals), Steve Moore (Jackson, TN, banjo, vocals), and Kevin Keen (Corinth, MS, mandolin). No Time Flatt has played many shows, had two very successful overflowing CD release parties at Clark Shaw & Son's Old Country Store in Jackson, TN, played the Plaza at the Ryman Auditorium (the "mother church" of country and bluegrass music) three times, scored top honors three times at the Tennessee Music Awards at the University of Memphis Lambuth Campus in Jackson, TN, and now have played the Collins Theatre twice. They've kept all five members since day one, and the sound is tight! They've only just begun!
