new_lgp_patsyclinepic
Lisa Brokop will sing the music of Patsy Cline in the Golden Belt Community Concert presentation, The Patsy Cline Project, at 7:30 p.m. Sunday, Feb. 26, at the Great Bend Municipal Auditorium, Lakin and Stone. The performance is open to GBCCA members. Memberships will be available for purchase at the concert.

Singer/songwriter Lisa Brokop in her warm, rich voice and accompanying band will pay homage to one of country music’s greatest ladies, Patsy Cline, with many of her classic hits including “Sweet Dreams” and “Walkin’ After Midnight.”

This Golden Belt Community Concert featuring Brokop and the Patsy Cline Project is set for 7:30 p.m. Sunday, Feb. 26, at the Great Bend Municipal Auditorium, Lakin and Stone. Doors open at 6:30 p.m.

Brokop created The Patsy Cline Project in 2016 as a collection of Cline’s well-known country and pop music hits of the 1950s and 1960s. She also will sing a couple of her own songs that she has composed in Cline’s well-known vocal style.

“I’ll be coming full circle with this project,” Brokop says, “When I started singing, I would sing some of Patsy’s songs because I didn’t have my own. They are still some of my favorites today and I am so excited to have the opportunity to honor this amazing lady and the incredible music she gave us.”

Program highlights will also include “I Fall to Pieces,” “Your Cheating Heart,” “Strange,” “Faded Love,” “Back in My Baby’s Arms,” and “Blue Moon Over Kentucky.”

This GBCCA event is open to association members. No single concert tickets are available. Anyone who is not a member and wishes to purchase a season membership may do so at this concert. Because the concert association encourages music education in the schools, full-time students of any age will be admitted to the concert for a $5 donation at the door.

Season memberships are $50 per adult; $10 for any full-time enrolled student; $110 for a Family Membership (two adults and all dependent children living in the same household); and $110 for a Grandparent Package (two adults and up to four minor grandchildren).

The GBCCA 2022-2023 season will continue with Forever Simon and Garfunkel, March 14; and Beginnings, the ultimate Chicago Tribute Band, April 22.
