Sellick and
Bergeson open DCCA Coffeehouse Series
Internationally touring husband and wife duo Annie Sellick and Pat
Bergeson will combine their talents to open Darke County Center for the
Arts Coffeehouse Series season at the Union City Arts Depot on
Thursday, September 21. According to DCCA Artistic Director Keith
Rawlins, Nashville native Annie Sellick is known for the organic
sincerity she exudes from the stage as well as her ability to tell a
compelling story with each song she sings. Her husband, Pat Bergeson, a
versatile guitarist and harmonica player, has performed and recorded
with Dolly Parton, Johnny Cash, and Lyle Lovett. “Together, Annie and
Pat cover much musical ground including cabaret classics, jazz
standards, and soulful originals,” Mr. Rawlins stated. “They will
impress and entertain everyone who enjoys good music of all kinds,” he
concluded.
DCCA’s Coffeehouse Series provides high quality artists performing in a
comfortable social setting where food and drink are also available.
DCCA Executive Director Andrea Jordan states that each venue hosting
the intimate concerts offers its own unique charm to the proceedings.
“The Arts Depot has a nostalgic atmosphere that is sometimes enhanced
by the sound of a passing train,” she said. “Somehow, the train whistle
and the rattle of the wheels adds to the timeless aura of the
performances taking place,” she concluded.
DCCA's Coffeehouse Series is sponsored by EB Real Estate, Eileen and
Steve Litchfield, and Rodney Oda. The Ohio Arts Council helps 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. DCCA membership contributions also help
support this show.
Tickets for the concert by Annie Sellick and Pat Bergeson cost $10, and
can be reserved by contacting DCCA at 937-547-0908 or
dcca@centerforarts.net, or purchased at DCCA's office located within
Greenville Public Library or online at www.CenterForArts.net. If any

show starts at 7 p.m.
