Don't Miss The Classically Trained Tenors With A Comedic Twist

The “infamous” 3 Red Neck Tenors are back and better than ever! The 3 Redneck Tenors are a new breed in the “tenor genre” combining musical comedy with classically trained voices. They sing everything while delighting their audiences not only with their vocal prowess but with songs and music ranging from Gospel to Country to Broadway, Pop, and Classical.

They are just what their name implies, fine artists with a funny outlook on life and business. As a group and as individuals, they are supremely talented musicians, capable of equally excellent performances of 'Grandma Got Run Over by a Reindeer' and 'Ave Maria.' They can keep an audience in stitches with their comedy sketches and in tears with the beauty of their voices.

Matthew Lord is a proud graduate of the prestigious Juilliard Opera Center. He is the creator and writer of the 3 Redneck Tenors, and stars with Blake Davidson and Jonathan Fruge. Their music is arranged by award-winning composer Craig Bohmler.

Lord, a native of California, is recognized as a versatile performer capable of encompassing repertoire from the 18th Century to works by composers of today. His work is consistently praised for its naturalness, intensity, and commitment. He has performed in almost every major opera house in the U.S. Another interesting fact is that Mr. Lord was chosen over thousands of contestants to compete in Fox Television’s singing competition show “Alter Ego”. His alter ego is “Wolfgang Champagne”. Dallas, Texas native Blake Davidson is an award-winning singer who has performed all over the world, and whose range of experience includes opera, symphony, and musical theatre. He received his vocal training at The University of North Texas. He is in demand as soloist and recording artist with many symphonies and has just finished a delightful return to the Corpus Christi Symphony. Jonathan Fruge, a native of Lubbock, Texas, holds a B.A. degree in Music Performance and a Masters of Music in Vocal Performance from Texas Tech University. His credits include soloist appearances at Carnegie Hall with the New York City Chamber Orchestra, Walt Disney Concert Hall, and over 20 featured solos with Texas Tech University Choir.

This is a show that promises to keep you excited, rolling with laughter, and clamoring for more!
