3 Redneck Tenors, Oakridge Boys coming to Crockett

Think Larry the Cable Guy meets Luciano Pavarotti.

Piney Woods Fine Arts Association will present 3 Redneck Tenors in concert on Dec. 16 at the Crockett Civic Center.

“Come and take a magical, musical Christmas journey with our singin' cousins, Billy Joe, Billy Bob and Billie Billee, the 3 Redneck Tenors Christmas SPEC-TAC-YULE-AR — The Colonel and Edna Mae will be there too!,” a PWFAA news release said. “To liven up your holidays this year, we're recommending a healthy dose of 3 Redneck Tenors Christmas SPEC-TAC-YULE-AR. It's Christmas music like you've never heard and won't easily forget.”

There's nothing old-fashioned about the music — arranged by award-winning composer Craig Bohmler — it's infused with vitality, energy and passion.

The familiar Christmas tunes in the show include classics like: “Sleigh Ride,” “White Christmas,” “I'll Be Home for Christmas,” “Santa Baby,” “Santa Claus is Coming to Town,” “Blue Christmas,” “O Holy Night,” “Winter Wonderland,” “Jingle Bells” and “Silent Night.”

Enjoy Christmas spoofs like “Grandma Got Run Over by a Reindeer” and “I Saw Mommy Kissing Santa Claus” and a few other great surprises.

“It's foot-stomp'n, toe-tapp'n, bell ringing fun for the whole family,” a news release said. “Yes, those singing angels in the trailer park are packing their festive mullets and will be dashing through the snow just in time for some down home Christmas cheer!”
