Dollywood entertainer James Rogers will return Jan. 29 to Citrus County for a feel-good fundraising concert.
The show will benefit charitable projects supported by the Kiwanis Club of Homosassa Springs.
Iris Whittaker, the club’s spokeswoman and a board member, said this will be the singer/songwriter’s third Citrus County concert.
“James has written several new songs which will be featured in this year’s show,” she said. “I have heard some of them and they will definitely touch your heart. He’s good at that.”
Rogers performs country western, patriotic and gospel songs. His music ranges from pop to classical guitar. Whittaker said he has a wicked sense of humor.
The concert will start at 3 p.m. at Curtis Peterson Auditorium at Lecanto High School. Tickets to the concert are $20 in advance or $25 at the door. For information or to buy tickets, call Jim Harris at 382-1470; Iris Whittaker at 795-5541, ext. 1313, or Mike Stokley at (352) 206-9096.
