Studio Tenn Artistic Director, Matt Logan, commented on the return of the Studio Tenn Legacy Series and its unrivaled cast.
“We have been wanting to honor Glen Campbell through our Legacy Series for years now,” said Logan. “He is a musician whose influence has reached many of the great artists of today, much like Steven Curtis Chapman, who is joining us for the tribute. Artists like Steven bring such a personal, inspiring level to the show that only close family and friends can provide that celebrates Glen’s legacy, influence and artistry.”
Chapman has won five GRAMMY Awards for Best Pop/Contemporary Gospel Album and is celebrated as Gospel Music’s most awarded artist with 58 GMA Dove Awards.
Carl Jackson, who played as the lead banjo and guitarist for Campbell for 12 years of his career, also holds the title of GRAMMY winner for Best Bluegrass Album in 1991 and Best Country Album in 2003.
Jackson mentioned his excitement to join the production as not only the musical director and arranger for the show, but lead guitarist as well.
“When Matt Logan approached me about getting involved with the show, I knew I couldn’t pass it up. The Campbells have always been family to me and I knew I wanted to help honor and pay tribute to the great artist, musician, vocalist, entertainer, and person Glen was.”
