Have a little lunch with your bluegrass in Norman

Published: September 6, 2008

NORMAN — The John Arnold Bluegrass Band will return to the Lunchtime Concert Series at noon Friday at the Norman Depot, 200 S Jones Ave.

A complimentary light lunch and dessert will be served to the first 100 people, courtesy of the Norman Convention and Visitors Bureau and Hiland Dairy.

A scaled-down version of the John Arnold Band, the bluegrass band plays a blend of bluegrass, country, swing, jazz and rock.

In the 1980s, the John Arnold Band toured nationally with acts like Ricky Skaggs and Exile. Retired from touring and now based in Norman, the band plays private parties, corporate events and festivals.

Lunchtime Concerts are presented by the Norman Downtowners Association and produced by the Performing Arts Studio.

The next and final Lunchtime Concert of the season will be at noon Oct. 3 at the Depot. Performing will be Almost Outlaws, featuring Cleveland County District Judge Bill Hetherington and attorney Lindsay Bailey.
