Robinson Grand Performing Art Center hosts 8th Born and Bred Concert Series
CLARKSBURG, (WBOY) — The Robinson Grand hosted the 8th Born and Bred Concert Series Friday night, featuring the Argument and Last Year's Model.
Created to spotlight homegrown talent, Born & Bred offers local artists a professional platform to showcase original work. The series continues to expand, now representing over 1,000 musicians from across the state striving to reach broader audiences and national stages.
'We started making music again a few years ago, even though we broke up in 2006, but we were sending it around because everyone has left the area except for our base player. So, we had no designs to do a reunion show, but Born & Bred and Robinson Grand approached us, and man, we're so glad they did. We're so grateful to have another chance to perform and relive the old days,' Singer and Songwriter of the Argument Scott Simons said.

The Robinson Grand Performing Arts Center is proud to present what is being billed as 'the ultimate Journey Tribute Experience,' featuring a live performance by Separate Ways The Band on Friday, May 30, at 7:30 p.m. This event promises an evening of high-energy entertainment, celebrating the iconic music of Journey in a dynamic tribute performance.
'People don't realize, like West Virginia is being considered a hot spot for music so it's been really cool for us to be there and highlight all that, and cover it, and get these bands exposure they need,' the Lead Singer of Last Year's Model and Co-Owner of Born & Bred Brendan Gallagher said.
Also, audiences can enjoy even more local talent every Monday at 4 p.m. during Music Mondays on WBOY's 304 Today, where host Lauren Winans highlights featured artists from throughout the Mountain State.
