Nashville Celtic Rock Band Coming to the Alley

Nashville Celtic rock band Molly Ramone will come to West Tennessee on Thursday, May 17, when singer/songwriter Mark Harriman and Joe Khoury will perform at Arts in the Alley in downtown Henderson. Beginning at 6 p.m., the event will be hosted by the Henderson Arts Commission in the alley off Main Street beside Frix-Jennings Clinic.

Originally from Leiceister, England, Harriman came to America in 1995 when he signed to Gravelsauce Records. Since then he has established himself as an integral part of the Nashville music scene. Khoury plays lead guitar and mandolin and sings backing vocals. He is a prominent session player and music producer in Nashville.

Regularly featured at both the Opryland Hotel and on Music Row, Molly Ramone has a delightful way of encouraging audiences to join the excitement by clapping or singing along to both traditional Irish ballads and newer Celtic rock music.
