Lake Worth, Fla. (PRWEB) November 4, 2009 -- The Lake Worth Playhouse is proud to present Fall In: A Veterans Day Tribute Concert to honor U.S. Military service men and women. The concert features live music from the J.D. Danner Band and takes place this Veterans Day, Wednesday, November 11, 2009 at 8:00 p.m.

FALL IN features the music of Nashville recording artist J.D. Danner, a New York-born musician who mixes the sounds of country and southern rock for an "Urban Cowgirl" sound that is popular with fans of varying musical tastes and styles. Often described as "Roseanne Cash meets Melissa Etheridge," J.D. Danner is an artist with a mission to change the world through the power of music. She has partnered with the American Cancer Society, Women in Distress and Forgotten Soldiers Outreach along with regularly touring to perform at military bases in the U.S. and Guantanamo Bay, Cuba in support of our troops.

The concert will open with the National Anthem performed by Playhouse performing artist, C.C. Currie, who starred in last season's production of Always, Patsy Cline and joined the cast of this season's Playhouse season opener, Oklahoma! Opening ceremonies for the Veterans Day Tribute will be conducted by the Forest Hill High School Color Guard.

Tickets are $18 and $20 and proceeds will benefit both the Lake Worth Playhouse and Forgotten Soldiers Outreach. Audiences are asked to bring a non-perishable food item or hygiene product to be included in WE CARE packages that are prepared and sent to U.S. soldiers by Forgotten Soldiers Outreach.
