DCCA presents
singer Joshua Carswell at Memorial Hall
Darke County Center for the Arts will present singer Joshua Carswell at
Henry St. Clair Memorial Hall in Greenville on Saturday, October 11.
The second of DCCA's Artists Series concerts, the show begins at 8 p.m.
According to DCCA Artistic Director Keith Rawlins, local audiences have
already received a sneak peek at the young man. “Josh is a close
friends to members of the Annie Moses Band, and performs with them when
he's available; so all of those in the audience at the initial concert
of our current Artists Series season featuring the Annie Moses Band
were treated to a small sampling of what's in store when he's in the
spotlight,” Rawlins explained. “To say that he wowed the audience with
his vocal and interpretive abilities might be an understatement; I
strongly doubt that anyone who was there for that enticing snippet will
miss Josh's show,” Rawlins concluded.
Just 25 years old, Carswell has already performed at Carnegie Hall and
released his first solo album featuring great American standards
including “I Only Have Eyes for You” and Hank Williams' plaintive “I'm
So Lonesome I Could Cry.” According to Mr. Rawlins, Joshua Carswell has
been singing since he was a three-year-old performing solos at church.
“Josh loves multiple musical styles and genres, and has the
extraordinary skill to perform and interpret almost any song in a
manner that immediately captures the audience and leaves them wanting
more,” Rawlins said.
Jim and Enid Goubeaux are sponsoring the Joshua Carswell concert.
Additionally, the Ohio Arts Council helped fund this program with state
tax dollars to encourage economic growth, educational excellence and
cultural enrichment for all Ohioans. DCCA also receives operating
support from the Harry D. and Esther Stephens Memorial as well as
funding from the Ketrow Foundation and Lydia E. Schaurer Memorial Trust
Fund.
Tickets for the show by Joshua Carswell cost $20, and can be reserved
by contacting DCCA at 937-547-0908 or dcca@centerforarts.net, or
