Gold Company will celebrate its 40th anniversary this weekend with three performances in the Dalton Center Recital Hall at Western Michigan University. Along for the festivities are GCII, a live band, and several starry alums associated with Gold Company, including singer/songwriter Matt Giraud (of American Idol fame), Hollywood vocalist Nayanna Holley, Grammy award-winning John Proulx and jazz recording artist Kate Reid, as well as past directors Duane Davis, Kellyann Nelson and April Arabian-Tiniwho.
Director Greg Jasperse recruited his friend, sound technician/artist manager Bryan Farina, to handle the sound engineering of the shows, returning him to a role he had filled as a WMU student. Jasperse, Farina, and Matt Giraud joined Cara Lieurance at WMUK to preview the concerts.
Gold Company's "Something Gold, Something New" shows will be held at 8 pm Friday, Feb 2 and 2 pm and 8 pm on Saturday, Feb 3, in the Dalton Center Recital Hall.
