FLOYD CRAMER LEGACY COMES LIVE TO ARLINGTON HEIGHTS
The Northwest Suburban Community Concert Association, in partnership with District 214 Community Education, announces today its 4th and final concert of the 2011-2012 Season will feature Jason Coleman, grandson of the famous pianist, Floyd Cramer.
Jason Coleman continues his family's tradition in this nostalgic and entertaining tribute to his Granddad.
Jason began following in his Granddad's footsteps at an early age, singing at only two years on the stage of the Grand Ole Opry. At age four he sang and played on "Nashville Now", and as a nine year old he played a memorable Christmas piano duet with Floyd on "Music City Tonight".

Most recently Jason debuted his much anticipated Gospel album, FAITH. The album features instrumental renditions of a blend of traditional hymns and modern songs of praise. Jason stays busy recording and performing, carrying on the legacy of his grandfather. While audiences love hearing Jason perform the music of Floyd Cramer, they also enjoy discovering his own stylings. Jason's concerts are exciting experiences -- and they always leave the crowds wanting more!
Individual tickets are avaliable at the door, www.nscommunityconcerts.org or through District 214 (847-718-7702)
