\"\"<\/a>Singer-songwriter Jimbo Whaley\u2019s popular annual concert will benefit Mountain Hope for a second time.<\/p>\n

The 15th annual Jimbo Whaley and Friends Show is set for Saturday, March 23 at Country Tonite Theater in Pigeon Forge. Every year, the concert has benefited local non-profits. Last year, Mountain Hope received funding from the concert proceeds, and Jimbo has generously made the same offer this year.<\/p>\n

Jimbo grew up in Pigeon Forge, surrounded by music, which naturally led to his career as a singer and songwriter. His talent has attracted a following of devoted fans. Twenty years ago he co-founded Pine Mountain Railroad, a bluegrass band that was twice nominated for the
\nEmerging Artist of the Year award from the International Bluegrass Music Association. He now performs with the band Greenbrier.<\/p>\n

As well as composing his most memorable hit, \u201cThe Kings of Orebank,\u201d Jimbo wrote four songs
\nfeatured in \u201cBell Witch: The Movie.\u201d He was the featured performer at the movie\u2019s premiere in
\nthe historic Ryman Auditorium in Nashville.<\/p>\n

The audience at the March 23 concert can expect more than bluegrass. Jimbo\u2019s and Greenbrier\u2019s
\nhigh-energy performance includes original works and pop songs from several eras. The \u201cand
\nFriends\u201d part of the playbill will feature a wide variety of other popular local musical acts.
\nDon\u2019t miss this evening of dynamic entertainment. Tickets are available at jimbowhaley.com<\/a>.
