The next Lost River Sessions LIVE! concert begins at 7 p.m. Nov. 15 at the Capitol Arts Center. Featured artists include old-time string band Whiskey Bent Valley Boys and special guest Willie Huston.  Lobby doors open at 6 p.m. and tickets are $12.50 general admission and $10.50 for students.

Hailing from the back woods of Bloomfield, Ky., the Whiskey Bent Valley Boys pay homage to their southern kin. Songs from the tobacco fields to the rivers, iron skillets to moonshine stills, upbeat and professional, this band possesses the skill to honor history and preserve the instrument, their style and every authentic nuance of the day. With their sense of fashion, from overalls to string ties, straw hats to silk vests, along with a turbo charged performance, their approach breathes fire into this vintage genre.

Opening the show is Bowling Green’s own banjo-whiz Willie Huston.

Lost River Sessions LIVE! is presented by WKU Public Broadcasting, Mike Simpson, Farmers National Bank of Bowling Green and Scottsville, Bowling Green Convention and Visitors Bureau, Glasgow EPB, Warren County Public Library, and Katelyn and Zach Simpson. The monthly concert series takes place at the iconic Capitol Arts Center on Fountain Square in downtown Bowling Green.
