RUSK, TEXAS- Get outta that kitchen and wash your face and hands, put your glad rags on and get ready to shake, rattle and roll with ‘America’s sweethearts.’
“The magical music of the 1950s and 60s is reborn when this all female show group from East Texas take the stage,” states the group’s websiteshakerattleroll4.com. “Winners of the largest doo-wop contest ever held in Las Vegas, these ladies are popular for their ability to keep the crowd entertained with their vocal harmonies, synchronized moves, hula hooping skills and comedy.”
Tavie Spivey of Gilmer; Brenda Spencer of Henderson; LeAnn Bemis of Longview; and Sissy Perry of Corsicana pay tribute to some the greatest musicians in the history of rock n roll, including Jerry Lee Lewis, the Angels, Bill Haley & His Comets, Darlene Love, the Flamingos, the Chordettes, The Dixie Cups, and of course, Elvis.
“We’re extremely pleased to bring such a great show to our stage,” CCT board member Karen Hendley said. “You’ll laugh, you’ll cry, you’ll want to get up and twist the night away right along with them – it really is a show the whole family will enjoy!”
