FRANKLIN GROVE — Fans of the popular Friday Music Shows at the historic H.I. Lincoln Building in Franklin Grove are in for a unique treat on Aug. 25.
Musical host Lynn Asp will welcome a special appearance by Marty McCormack and Brian FitzGerald. Known throughout North America, Ireland, and Italy as Switchback these talented musicians will provide a rousing evening of American Roots blended with Celtic Soul. Originally, it was announced the show would be July 28 but due to a scheduling conflict, the Franklin Grove show has been rescheduled to Aug. 25.
Playing over 200 engagements a year Switchback has shared the stage with artists as diverse as The Moody Blues, Gaelic Storm, Leon Russell, and Lee Greenwood.  Equally at home in giant 15,000 seat stadiums or in intimate settings like Nashville’s Bluebird Café - or Franklin Grove’s historic H.I. Lincoln Building, Switchback can connect with everyone who loves Irish Music – or just really good music.  Their appeal is universal!
In an effort to bring these international touring musicians at an affordable hometown price, there will be two action packed 45 minute shows at 7 and 8 pm.  Seating is limited so don’t delay.  Tickets are available for a $10 donation by calling the H.I. Lincoln building at 815-456-3030 daily from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m., noon to 4 p.m. on Sundays, or stop by the H.I. Lincoln building during the same hours.  Tickets may be available at the door, but previous Switchback appearances have sold out in advance so plan ahead for Aug. 25.
