Weisbergs almost unclassifiable music seems to be appealing to people of all ages. Weisberg has 14 albums out on the market, but he is best known for his 1978 collaboration with Dan Fogelberg which produced the album Twin Sons of and the hit Different Mothers, single, The Power of Gold. His latest album, Traveling Light, exhibits the sophistication which makes him the impressive force he is in popular music. Weisberg, with his beautiful flute runs, is able to take people to another space and time. Prior to his concert at Dixie, Weisberg will be doing a five day concert in Sun Valley, Idaho. Almost everywhere the group has performed, they have played to a sellout crowd. Weisberg also played an excellent concert at the University of Utah last summer. Tim Weisberg will be at Arrow Audio and Video on the day of the concert for a free autograph session. Arrow Audio will also be holding a sale that day on all of Weisbergs albums. Tickets will be sold for $5.00 in advance and $6.00 at the door. Tickets will go on sale February 13 at Arrow Audio and Video, Ben Franklin, and The Dixie College Bookstore in St. George; Zion Drug in Hurricane, and The Bumble Berry Inn in Springdale. |
