On the Move Riders Program – Raised on Records Virtual Concert
December 17, 2021 @ 12:00 pm - 1:00 pm
On the Move Riders Program and Metro Art Presents are proud to bring you their latest installment of Raised on Records, a holiday edition, as we welcome back an annual tradition through this virtual concert event.
Featured artist: Deke Dickerson + The Whippersnappers….plus dancers Adolfo & Cat of Time 2 Swing
Deke Dickerson has devoted his long career to keeping America’s roots music alive while interjecting new creativity into genres of music that flourished in decades previous. Dickerson has been carrying the torch since he was 13, playing in his first rockabilly band in his hometown of Columbia, Missouri. He moved to Los Angeles at the age of 22 and proceeded to found his primary band, Deke Dickerson and the Ecco-Fonics, his newest group, Deke Dickerson and the Whippersnappers, as well as several side projects. Dickerson has his own signature guitar, manufactured by the Hallmark Guitar Company of Maryland, and is currently writing the official biography of guitar legend Merle Travis.
