The Rankin Brothers — Classic Music Revue
Branson, MO, January 15, 2008: Welk Resorts Branson is thrilled to announce the opening of an exciting new show for the 2008 season; "The Rankin Brothers, Classic Music Revue"!
You've more than likely heard it said that everything old is new again. The Rankin Brothers Classic Music Revue is a fresh approach to timeless musical classics. "This is a culmination of a dream come true", stated Matt Rankin. Brought up in Texas, where they honed their musical skills, performing in Branson has long been their goal. "Several offers came through, but we felt that Joe Sullivan and the Welk Resorts Organization were the perfect match for us and our families", agreed Mark Rankin. And, after a recent performance at a local community luncheon, the Branson community seems to agree. Tammy Slentz, Sales Manager at the Welk Resort Branson explains, "After the Rankin's appeared, our phones started ringing off the wall! The people absolutely love them!"
This multi-media show speaks to all groups and all generations. Based on a belief that classic music is timeless, the Rankin Brothers project a love and respect for the music they play. Along with their considerable vocal and musical talents, the Rankin Brothers have a stage presence that audiences adore. Maria Elena Holly, widow of the late, great Buddy Holly commented, "Our Visitors from England, as well as our local friends were absolutely wowed in grand style by the music and showmanship of the Rankin's. They did a tremendous job with Buddy's music."
The show consists of musical numbers from the 50's to the 90's and for a few hours, time will stand still as they take the audience on a memorable journey with hits from THE RIGHTEOUS BROTHERS, SIMON & GARFUNKEL, BUDDY HOLLY, THE EVERLY BROTHERS, NEIL DIAMOND, CONWAY TWITTY, GEORGE STRAIT, ELVIS PRESLEY, and many others. Rounding out the cast will be the Rankin Brothers Band, female singers and dancers and a comedian.
The show will take stage on March 17, 2008 and run through December 31, 2008. For more information about The Rankin Brothers and the many other great entertainers and shows at the Welk Resort, call 800-505-9355 or check our website: www.welkresortbranson.com.

Hamner & Barber Launch New Webcast Service

Posted In: City News by BroadcastBranson.com


As they begin their 5th successful season of the Hamner Barber Variety Show, Jim Barber and Dave Hamner announce the launch of their latest marketing project, BransonWebcast.com. Together, Hamner and Barber will host an ongoing series of audio and video interviews featuring many outstanding Branson celebrities, movers and shakers, and “just plain folk.” The webcast is produced in association with Branson.com and the first official interview was released on New Years Day.

 

“We were excited to interview Bucky and AJ Heard as our first guests on the webcast,” stated Dave Hamner. “Bucky is currently featured in a new production called “The Entertainers” at the Andy Williams theater and has been an outstanding Branson entertainer whose talents go far beyond his incredible singing abilities.” Bucky’s wife AJ also discusses her career over the years as a dancer, singer and choreographer in some of Branson’s finest productions. “AJ has an exciting announcement for folks who may not have seen her in awhile… actually, two exciting announcements,” added Jim Barber.

 

The show hosts look forward to many new additions to the webcast in the coming weeks, and will be scheduling interviews after the holidays subside. Interested parties who would like to appear as guests are invited to contact the producers by visiting the BransonWebcast.com site. “This has been an extremely busy year for us all,” stated Barber, “but we are very enthusiastic about adding this project to our schedule. It’s a refreshing way to promote Branson artists to a global audience in a way that print ads, tv spots or radio commercials just can’t do.

 

As each new episode is uploaded to their server, it will be archived in an easy to search database so that visitors far into the future have an opportunity to enjoy their favorite Branson celebrities, and meet many new undiscovered personalities in the Branson area. The site will also feature occasional news articles and stories of interest to Branson visitors. Visitors may subscribe to the webcasts by e-mail or via an RSS reader. A commenting and rating system has also been implemented to give visitors a fun way to interact and share their thoughts about the interviews online.
