AIR LINE ROAD BAND
PLAYS RANGE OF COUNTRY
AT TWILIGHT CONCERT
SUNDAY

From staff reports


Join us for Air Line Road at this Sunday's Twilight Concert, presented by Devon Energy!
Oklahoma City based Air Line Road is primarily a country band, but their original repertoire is anything but conventional. With songs ranging from gritty and passionate rock-infused country to a sweeter, sentimental classic-country sensibility, Air Line Road is not afraid to wear their hearts on their sleeves. Their EP "Think Twice" contains repertoire that runs the gamut and offers something for everyone's tastes. As comfortable at a rodeo or a street party as they are in a concert hall, Air Line Road is sure feel right at home on the Great Lawn Stage - and their broadly palatable repertoire is sure to make audience members feel the same.

  
The concerts take place from 7:30 to 9 p.m. on the Great Lawn Stage at the Myriad Botanical Gardens. Bring a blanket, picnic, and the whole family! 
 
The 35th annual Sunday Twilight Concert Series is presented by Devon Energy with additional support from Oklahoma Arts Council, Allied Arts, National Endowment for the Arts, and Magic 104.1 - KMGL.  For more information please visit  www.artscouncilokc.com

"ME AND EARL AND THE DYING GIRL is smart and funny and meaningful, the kind of movie that you may not be familiar with yet, but which you might watch many times in the years to come."

3 Stars ~ Anna Codutti ~ Tulsa World

In the 1960's, Beach Boys leader Brian Wilson struggles with emerging psychosis as he attempts to craft his avant-garde pop masterpiece. In the 1980's, he is a broken, confused man under the 24-hour watch of shady therapist Dr. Eugene Landy. 120 min / Rated PG-13

"This is a film that often lets music do a lot of the talking, as dialogue is muted in favor of a Beach Boys tune. When the love story between Wilson and Melinda is finally allowed to progress out of anyone else's control, the audience doesn't hear what Wilson says to her, but the lyrics of one of his most beloved songs will resound during that last scene."
