Ya’ll better get ready — Saturday, March 18 at 7:30 pm the Quebe Sisters take over the Tower with unabashed, unadulterated Texas Swing! Presented by the Tower Theatre Foundation, the singing, swinging, triple-fiddle playing Quebes (rhymes with “maybe”) consist of sisters Grace, Sophia and Hulda, backed by acoustic bass and guitar. Prepare for fierce fiddles, close harmonies, and authentic Americana from the trio who’ve performed at NYC’s Lincoln Center, the Grand Ole Opry, and the Smithsonian Folklife Festival, and shared the stage with country legends Willie Nelson, George Strait, Merle Haggard, Ray Benson and Asleep at the Wheel, and Riders in the Sky. “Listening to Quebe Sisters sing is nothing short of mesmerizing”, wrote Chris Richards of the Washington Post. Familial fiddle champions from Washington, The Voetbergs, return to the Tower for an upbeat opening set of roots and folk music.

This performance is presented by the Tower Theatre Foundation and is sponsored by Bend Surgery Center with additional support from Central Oregon Radiology, Deschutes Brewery, and Oregrown. Performance sponsors are Shelly Hummel and Ed Kingzett. Tickets are on sale now. Membership, program information and individual and group tickets are available at the box office (835 NW Wall), by phone (541-317-0700) or online (www.towertheatre.org). Details on events are also at facebook.com/TheTowerTheatre.

The nonprofit Tower Theatre Foundation owns and operates the historic stage in downtown Bend. The Foundation’s mission is to be the leading performing arts organization, providing cultural and education programs that make an essential contribution to Central Oregon’s lifestyle and strengthen the community.
