Featuring Susan Gibson, Josh Grider, Drew Kennedy, Kelley Mickwee, and Walt Wilkins
An annual favorite, the Red River Songwriters return to the Lewisville Grand Theater for another intimate Black Box Songwriter Series concert, featuring Susan Gibson, Josh Grider, Drew Kennedy, Kelley Mickwee and Walt Wilkins. Each a distinguished songwriter in their own right, the group shares the stage in a unique song swap format – playing their music, telling stories, and supporting one another in an evening of incredible songs. This year’s concert will take place in the Huffines Performance Hall with reserved seating.
“The songwriters shape their distinctive songwriting voices around an Americana core — country for Grider, storytelling and emotion for Wilkins, pop with literate lyrics for Kennedy, rhythm-and-blues for Mickwee and country folk for Gibson — that allows them to mix and mingle.” – Waco Tribute-Herald
The Black Box Songwriter Series features singer-songwriters in an intimate, listening-room setting.

Both newcomers and veteran songwriters have played the series and given fans a chance to hear incredible songs as well as the stories behind them.
This series is produced by the City of Lewisville. Tickets to this concert are $20 general admission seating and are available for purchase online at LewisvilleGrand.com/tix. Sales tax and ticket fees included in ticket price.
