March 4: Robin and Linda Williams

Legendary duo opens 2016 season

Robin and Linda Williams will kick off the Historic Wayne Theatre Ross Performing Arts Center Premier Season on Friday, March 4th at 8:00pm.

Tickets for the event are $20 and $25 and can be purchased by calling the Wayne Theatre office at (540) 943-9999.

As live performers they are second to none. Their stirring concerts have earned them a huge body of fans over the years. But as gifted songwriters Robin and Linda have earned an even rarer honor, the devotion and deep respect of their musical peers. As The Washington Post put it, “The Williamses are able to sum up a life in a few details with moving completeness.” The list of artists who have covered their original songs include some of the greats of country music, names like Emmylou Harris, Tom T. Hall, George Hamilton IV, Tim & Mollie O’Brien, Mary Chapin Carpenter, Kathy Mattea and The Seldom Scene.

“Among contemporary country performers,, Robin and Linda Williams shine like a diamond amid rhinestones …” __ David W. Johnson, The Boston Globe

Linda is a native of Anniston, Alabama and Robin (the son of a Presbyterian minister) was born in Charlotte, North Carolina. They met and fell for each other in 1971 on a visit to Myrtle Beach, South Carolina while Linda was teaching school and Robin was a full-time musician on a national coffeehouse circuit. It wasn’t long before they discovered additional magic when they combined their voices in harmony.
