A Ricky Nelson Remembered concert is set for 7:30 p.m. Sunday, Sept. 17, at Waterville Opera House, 1 Common St. in Waterville.
The multi-media entertainment event will feature the live music of Ricky Nelson’s hit songs (including “Hello Mary Lou,” “Travelin’ Man,” “Garden Party”) performed by Ricky’s twin sons Matthew and Gunnar and includes never before seen big screen video footage of the Nelson family with interviews from celebrities influenced by Ricky Nelson.
This show stars Matthew and Gunnar Nelson, the identical twin sons of Rock ’n’ Roll Hall of Famer Ricky Nelson and grandsons of ’50s TV icons Ozzie and Harriet Nelson. When Matthew and Gunnar hit #1 on the Billboard with their rock band Nelson with their self-penned hit “(Can’t Live Without Your) Love & Affection” it put the Nelson family in the Guinness Book of Worlds as the only family in entertainment history with three generations of #1 hitmakers, according to a news release from the opera house.
Tickets cost $38-$48.
