The Whatley Center for the Performing Arts at Northeast Texas Community College will present Riders in the Sky with the Quebe Sisters in concert Thursday, Dec. 6 at 7:30 p.m.
The holiday-themed show will feature two of the hottest Western music acts today. It is sponsored by Cypress Bank.
“We have hosted Riders in the Sky at our venue before and they were a real hit. We are so pleased to bring them back again with the exceptionally talented Quebe Sisters,” Carolyn Franks, Director of the Whatley Center, said.
For more than thirty years Riders In The Sky have been keepers of the flame passed on by the Sons of the Pioneers, Gene Autry and Roy Rogers, reviving and revitalizing the genre. And while remaining true to the integrity of Western music, they have themselves become modern-day icons by branding the genre with their own legendary wacky humor and way-out Western wit, and all along encouraging buckaroos and buckarettes to live life "The Cowboy Way!"

Quebe Sisters Perfroming Band[/caption]
The Quebe Sisters are three triple-threat fiddle champions from Texas whose playing and sweet harmonies are blowing audiences away nationwide.
The sisters’ past is as colorful and eventful as their future is bright. Growing up in Burleson, they attended their first local fiddle competition in nearby Denton and decided fiddling was what they wanted to do. Since then, they have gone on to share the stage with legends like Willie Nelson, George Strait, Merle Haggard and more.
Tickets are $30 for adults and $10 for students. They are available online at whatleycenter.com or by calling the box office at 903-434-8181.
