Events Concerts
Dailey and Vincent Sing the Statler Brothers
Desert View Performing Arts Center (in SaddleBrooke)
Friday, March 2, 2012 with shows at 4:00 and 7:30 p.m.
Dailey and Vincent, one of the most celebrated acts in bluegrass music, will be appearing at the
Desert View Performing Arts Center on Friday, March 2, 2012 with shows at 4:00 and 7:30 p.m.
Their unique blend of bluegrass music, the country sound of the original Statler Brothers recordings,
a cappella gospel music, and lots of "Hee Haw" style humor will provide a most wonderful experience
for the audience. The band is loaded with vocal and instrumental talent, but the singing and vocal
harmonies are what will make this show special.
In five short years Dailey and Vincent have stormed to the top of the bluegrass world by winning
numerous awards. In 2010 they claimed their third consecutive Entertainer of the Year, third
Vocal Group of the Year award, and second Album of the Year award at the IBMA Awards Show.
They joined The Del McCoury Band as the only artists to bring home the IBMA Entertainer trophy
more than two times. Dailey and Vincent received 7 SPBGMA Music Awards in 2011 for best
Bluegrass Band, Entertaining Group, Album, Vocal Group, Gospel Group, Male Vocalist, and Bass
Fiddle Performer. They also received a Grammy Nomination for Best Country Performance by a
Duo or Group for "Elizabeth" from Dailey and Vincent Sing the Statler Brothers.

Summer Bluegrass Concert Series
The Town of Marana, the Southern Arizona Arts and Cultural Alliance (SAACA) and the Desert Bluegrass Association (DBA) have partnered to stage a series of five 2012 summer bluegrass concerts. These concerts will be held the 2nd Saturday of the month from 7:00 to 8:30 PM. The concert dates are:
May 12 – June 9 – July 14 – August – 11 – Sept – 8
This is the third year for Marana’s Free “Concert in Your Backyard” series and it has historically had a large turnout. This is the first time for a totally bluegrass music series. No doubt, if successful, bluegrass music will have a dominate roll in the future concerts. The venue is at Marana’s Silverbell District Park with the sound reinforcement being provided by SAACA.
The DBA’s Band Selection Committee (Charlie Sides and Jim Sanchez) is active at this time arranging for the Bands that will perform in the Concert Series. The goal of the committee is to stage the highest caliber AZ Bluegrass Bands possible within the budget constraints. When a band and its performance date is under Contract, the information will be displayed here.
