Article body
Following a phenomenally well-received concert by Vince Gill on August 27 to open our 2022–23 season, the Gogue Center now moves into its first full month of programming with a packed September lineup.
On Wednesday, Sept. 14, the son of folk icon Jim Croce channels the spirit of his late father in Croce Plays Croce. A.J. Croce, a fantastically talented singer and songwriter in his own right, takes to the Sergio Marentes Stage to perform a special set of classics by Jim, some of his own tunes, and songs that influenced the pair. Only a few tickets remain for this special performance, which is presented as part of our 2022–23 Concert Series. To reserve seats now, click here.
The following evening, Thursday, Sept. 15, our 2022–23 Amphitheatre Series continues with Jason Isbell and the 400 Unit. Isbell's star has continued its ascent since his days as guitarist and songwriter for Drive-By Truckers. The Alabama native and his 400 Unit bandmates return to the Gogue Center for their first performance since our Grand Opening Festival more than three years ago, this time joined by Nashville-based country artist Peter One.
