| Other Info | ![]() Ricky Gibson will be in concert on Thursday August 13th at 6:30 pm. A native of North Carolina, Ricky Gibson grew up playing gospel, bluegrass and country music. He taught himself to play the guitar at the age of 12 and soon afterward taught himself to play the mandolin using a book and a record, and also to play the bass fiddle. At age 14, Ricky started performing at local nursing homes and churches with his family and he knew back then that he wanted to be an entertainer. Visit Ricky's website at rickygibson.com Now, Ricky enjoys playing live shows on weekends to all types of audiences. Fans will say after seeing a show by Ricky, they are impressed with his instrumental talent as well as versatility of his vocal abilities. Performances of western music also make many fans feel they have stepped back in time hearing the yodeling and soothing songs from the past. Ricky says it is not the size of the audience that matters, but his joy comes from giving his best at each performance. Ricky has written multiple songs and has put them to music and offers them on a CD project entitled “Originals” by Ricky Gibson. Songwriting comes natural for him in the country and gospel categories. This CD project and others by Ricky are played on a local country music station, WBRF 98.1 FM. And listeners call in frequently to request his original songs. Ricky joined Ascap in 2007, and working with other songwriters has always been a joy for him. |
