PRESS RELEASE

NASHVILLE, Tenn. (May 6, 2014)—The maiden benefit concert event 3D-Denim, Diamonds & Divas (3D) [scheduled to be held Saturday, September 13, 2014 at Baldwin Park in Aurora, Missouri (North Hudson Ave.)] is set to highlight once-in-a-lifetime performances by some of country music’s hottest “leading ladies.” Presented by Jimmy Michel Motors, the extraordinary entertainment experience will kick-off at 12PM and conclude at midnight; the daylong music extravaganza is readied to showcase stellar, award-winning talent in support of the youth and community of the surrounding area. Organized by RS Express Entertainment, 100% of the 3D proceeds will benefit select local organizations—Aurora Parks and Recreation, Aurora United Methodist Children’s and Youth Ministry, Lawrence County Drug Court Foundation and Youth Athletic Program of Lawrence County.

“A concert of this caliber is unique to Aurora and the surrounding areas,” expressed Aurora City Manager Mike Randall. “The 3D: Denim, Diamonds and Divas event will boast spectacular lady talent that folks may never see together again--at one place, at one time--and it will certainly conclude the summer famously!”

Featured performers include the energetic, internationally touring Mustang Sally Band. The newly re-united Keith Burns and Heidi Newfield of the hit group Trick Pony (“Pour Me” / “Just What I Do” / “On A Night Like This”) will add three dimensional flair; while Grammy-nominated, platinum-selling country-recording artist Jamie O’Neal (“There Is No Arizona” / “When I Think About Angels” / “Somebody’s Hero”) is anticipated to deliver memorable performances of fan favorites.  Adding local flavor, singer/songwriter and Nashville’s “one to watch,” Liz Moriondo will perform along with another hometown belle, Elise, who will set the pace to launch the fun-filled family outing. All on one stage, at one event for one-time only, the “P.M.S.” (pretty much spectacular) lineup of powerhouse women (with a strong supporting dose of testosterone with appearances by Keith Burns of Trick Pony and Jake Taylor of Mustang Sally) is set to bring on the sass to “rock” the park. More talent—including the highly anticipated headliner—will be announced in the upcoming weeks!

The 2010 Nashville floods have connected the beat of Music City to the valleys of Colorado; we are confident an evening filled with music will lift spirits and provide a boost in the fundraising necessary to rebuild.”
