Singers, Songwriters, Storytellers VIII
Chris Ward, Joey Anderson and Aaron Crawford
A Night of Country Songs and Stories
Saturday, March 22, 7:00 pm
Riverside Playhouse
General Admission Only - $25
On Saturday, March 22, 2025, Riverside Playhouse turns into Wenatchee City Limits for the ninth Singers, Songwriters, Storytellers show in this series of productions. Staged in an intimate black box setting, these three artists will each take the stage to tell their stories, sing their songs and create a true connection with each member of the audience. You will laugh. You will cry. You will leave knowing you experienced a very special event.
Chris Ward moved his family to Nashville over 30 years ago, where he began working as a staff songwriter and studio vocalist. Signed by Giant/Warner Bros, his 1996 single Fall Reaching made the Billboard Magazine charts. He toured and shared the stage with The Charlie Daniels Band, Mark Chestnut, Billy Ray Cirrus and dozens of other major artists. Now living in Chelan County, Chris is a NCW favorite and still performs throughout the U.S. He connects with every audience by still living his message from Fall Reaching: If you’re gonna win, win graceful. If you’re gonna love, love faithful. If you’re gonna learn, learn teaching. If you’re gonna fall, fall reaching.
Joey Anderson is a genre-spanning songwriter who delivers performances with a southern voice, a touch of class and a wealth of hard-nosed grit. He has received six Northwest Country Music Association Awards (19 nominations) over the past five years and is a member of the Northwest Country Music Association and the Nashville Songwriters Association International. Joey was team lead and producer for "The Black Diamond Presents,” an original music series in Spokane Valley, he produced "Live at the Bing" at The Bing Crosby Theater in Spokane, and he was the founder of the Inland Northwest SongFest. Joey recently returned to his home state of Florida and we are honored to have him return to the Pacific Northwest for this show.

Aaron Crawford is a national songwriting and recording artist based in the Pacific Northwest and founder of Cascade Country who pays respect to the roots, instrumentation, and songwriting of traditional country music, while blending in the iconic Seattle sounds that first formed his musical career. Approaching his work with a blue collar mentality, Aaron has recorded several albums and has over 1,200 performances. His live shows reveal a charisma and stage presence that captures every audience. To quote the lyrics from his single "Strings of This Guitar" he shines in a 'sea of faces, or singing in an old dive bar' and everything in between. Currently writing and recording for his 6th studio album, you can find more information about Aaron, his music and his branded gear at his website - https://www.crawfordaaronmusic.com - and everywhere else music is sold or streamed.
Every audience at this series has repeatedly described their experience, “This is the way music should be performed and heard.” We know you will agree.
