Ed Bruce Concert to Benefit Monterey and Baxter Chorus
On Thursday, April 28 at 7 p.m. at Monterey High School, the legendary Ed Bruce will be in concert.
With a string of hits, both as an artist and a writer, Ed Bruce has maintained a successful career for more than four decades. "Mamas Don't Let Your Babies Grow Up To Be Cowboys", "After All", "Girls, Women and Ladies", "When You Fall In Love Everything's A Waltz", "My First Taste of Texas", "Ever, Never Loving You", "The Last Cowboy Song", and the "Theme from Bret Maverick" are just a few of the self-penned hit songs from this great artist. Then there's "Texas When I Die" and "The Man That Turned My Mama On" which were giant hits for Tanya Tucker - and the list goes on.
Ed and Judith recently sold their "Home At Last" ranch and relocated to a log home with a wrap-around porch. There, on the back porch, overlooking a river and the mountain beyond, Ed loves to sit with friends and talk sports, horses and dogs, and he loves to talk about the change Jesus has made in his life.
Ed Bruce's career now spans both sides of the Atlantic and he has gained an enormous following in Europe. But Ed's heart is to lead people to the Cross of Calvary - wherever he has the opportunity to sing.
The next time you see the movie "Electric Horseman" or hear "Mamas Don't Let Your Babies Grow Up To Be Cowboys" on the radio, rejoice with the angels in Heaven that THIS baby grew up to be Ed Bruce - singer, songwriter, actor and God's messenger of His life-changing love through Jesus Christ.
Tickets for the Bruce concert are $10 available at Monterey High School, and the Monterey Branch of the Bank of Putnam County and at the door.
The chorus, is made up of current and former Monterey High School students, Upperman High School students and others. Funds are being raised for students. Adults and some students are paying their own way.
