Toledo dixieland band opens Pemberville concert series
PEMBERVILLE – The second season of Live In The House gets under way at the Pemberville Opera House Sept.
5 at 7:30pm with The Glass City Dixieland Band.
The Glass City Dixieland Band concert is the first of nine shows to be presented the first Saturday of
each month. Upcoming shows include contemporary songwriters, gospel, barbershop harmony and a silent
movie with live piano accompaniment.
The Glass City Dixieland Band, a group of serious avocational players, has been playing for over 30
years.
They have performed at country clubs, on the back of trucks in parades, in opera houses, church services,
funerals, many outdoor festivals, and just about any place else music is played. They have ventured as
far as North Carolina.
They described their approach as "swinging Dixieland Music" with songs such as "Bourbon
Street Parade," "Do You Know What It Means To Miss
New Orleans?" and "Just a Closer Walk with Thee."
