3rd & Union Acoustic Set

Thursday, Dec. 20, Doors Open at 6 p.m., Concert at 7 p.m.

Victory Theater, 116 S. Second St., Rogers

TICKETS HERE: http://bit.ly/3rdUnion12


Fresh off the release of their debut album, 3rd & Union will play an acoustic set in the historic Victory Theater in Downtown Rogers. Tickets are $5 per person, and are available online at the link above.

Hometown girl Palmer Lee and her singer-songwriting partner Chase Coy bring together their favorite elements of country music from artists like Lady Antebellum and Miranda Lambert, as well as folk influences from bands such as The Civil Wars and The Weepies.

The self-titled album was released in November 2012 and caught the ears of fans and industry professionals alike. Rising to #29 on the iTunes Country Albums chart, the duo's intelligent, emotional songs are taking the country world by storm. Get it here: https://itunes.apple.com/us/album/3rd-union/id578263881.

Featuring heartfelt and sincere songs such as "My Love" and "Learning to Live Without," the album showcases the duo's songwriting talents. Palmer and Chase met as classmates at Belmont University in Nashville. While working together on a song to be placed at Coy's sister's wedding, the two discovered they had incredible songwriting chemistry, and the idea to start a country duo was born.

This acoustic concert for "family and friends" in Palmer's hometown is an event not to be missed.
