Description
Todd Morgan and the Emblems in concert at Dangberg Historic Park
MINDEN, Nev.— In a return engagement, Sacramento area band, Todd Morgan and the Emblems, will bring 50s, 60s and Rockabilly style music to Dangberg Home Ranch Historic Park at 6:30 pm, Thursday, July 26.
Todd Morgan and the Emblems is a young four-piece band, led by singer-songwriter and musician Todd Morgan. The band’s music consists of original pop and rock music, along with covers of 50s and 60s Rock-n-Roll and up to present day pop and rock songs. The band has recorded 3 albums.
Todd Morgan is not an Elvis impersonator or "tribute" artist to past rock pioneers. Morgan is a young dynamo of talent and musically organic. He is an artist able to faithfully recreate the genius of such pioneering artists as Elvis Presley, Jerry Lee Lewis and Carl Perkins, as well as Chuck Berry, Little Richard and Ray Charles.
“We are so excited that Todd Morgan and the Emblems will return to the park for our 2018 Summer Festival. They were very well received last year and attendees truly enjoyed their presentation,” said the park’s events manager, Kim Harris.
This event is part of the park's Dangberg Summer Festival and is sponsored by Douglas County, Carson Valley Accounting, Full Circle Soils & Compost, Horse Tales Publications, Allied Sanitation Services, Minden Fortnightly Club, A.B.E. Printing and Copy Center, Carson Valley Inn, Carson Valley Sertoma, Jacobs Berry Farm, Cowboy’s Café, Personal Pedigree Genealogy and the Frances C. and William P. Smallwood Foundation.
The concert is also funded in part by the Nevada Arts Council, a state agency, and the National Endowment for the Arts, a federal agency.
The full Dangberg Summer Festival event schedule is available at dangberghomeranch.org.
The Dangberg ranch house will be open for one hour before the concert for anyone who would like an introduction to the Dangberg family history and the park's artifact collection.
Admission is $10 for adults, $5 for members and free for 16 and younger.
Visitors should bring their own seating and are welcome to bring a picnic dinner to enjoy. Please no dogs, legitimate service animals only. The park is located at 1450 Hwy 88, ¼ mile north of the Carson Valley Veterinary Hospital.
