Longoria&#8217;s new CD release, Riding My Thumb to Mexico, joins a set of earlier CDs, Wide Open Country and Tribute to Two Legends.<br \/>\nHis relaxed humor and fine singing style blends well with Jagwire Country. The assembly of skilled Country artists include Danny Hullihen\u00a0on steel guitar, who played with Little Jimmie Dickens and Jeannie Pruetts\u00a0for many years, and Jaxie Hartman who plays bass\u00a0and was Dottie West&#8217;s personal\u00a0secretary.\u00a0<br \/>\nDell Shorts on lead guitar and drummer Randy Wooley are well-known in northern Michigan, having played for many years. Shorts has backed up Nashville stars like Sawyer Brown, Crystal Gayle, Hank Thompson, and Tim McGraw to name a few.<br \/>\nCombining the harmonies of Jagwire Country with Longoria&#8217;s vocals creates a sound that takes listeners back to &#8220;yesterday&#8217;s Country&#8221; &#8211; as well as &#8220;new Country&#8221; with a few other surprises.<br \/>\nConcert in the Park is sponsored by the Clinton County Arts Council and the city of St. Johns, with support from the Michigan Council for the Arts and Cultural Affairs and the National Endowment for the Arts.<br \/>\nConcerts are held each Wednesday evening, beginning at 7 p.m., in the beautiful outdoor concert venue at the St. Johns City Park.
