Get lost in the soundscape of a simpler time with endearingly joyful songs that celebrate the beauty of nature and our shared humanity. John Denver’s biggest hits from the ’60s and ’70s weave an unforgettable musical tapestry that transcends space and time:"Rocky Mountain High," “Leaving On A Jet Plane,” “Annie’s Song,” “Sunshine On My Shoulders,” “Back Home Again,” “Thank God I’m a Country Boy,” and of course, “Take Me Home, Country Roads.”

With a unique musical style considered timeless, earnest, and comforting, coupled with a political and social conscience rooted in truth and authenticity, John Denver was an enigmatic everyman for the ages.  Relive his enduring musical legacy with Country Roads: The Songs of John Denver.

The Talent was superior each and everyone of the cast was so talented on instrumentals and vocals. Drayton never fails to provide such a professional performance and nothing less.
