Paris, Tenn.–Tickets are on sale for a Paris-Henry County Bicentennial Music event featuring Civil War songs. “Dan Knowles, Eddie Coffey & Friends” will be presented at 7 p.m. February 4 at the Paris Academy for the Arts.
During the American Civil War, songs supporting the war effort were written and published on both sides and then were almost immediately rewritten by the opponents. This concert will present many of these songs with their opposing interpretations along with images of the people who lived those songs.
Tickets are $10. Advance tickets are availble at: Paris-Henry County Chamber of Commerce, W.G. Rhea Library, Lura Lee’s Gift Shop, all in Paris.
