MACOMB, IL – As part of the Celebration Concert Series, Tri States Public Radio will welcome performer Gurf Morlix at 7 p.m. Saturday, April 7 in the Vallilo/Holtz Performance Studio, 320 University Dr. in Macomb.

Morlix has been a performer for more than 40 years. He and his guitar have accompanied artists ranging from Blaze Foley to Warren Zevon and he has released a series of solo records since 2000.

His lyrics don't waste a syllable and he comes by his musical minimalism naturally.

"It's the way my brain is wired," he said. "I like to hear everything clearly."

Seating for the concert is limited so advance purchase of tickets is encouraged. Tickets can be ordered online at TSPR.org, or by calling (800) 895-2912 from 8 a.m.-4:30 p.m. Monday-Friday. Prices are $10 for Tri States Public Radio members and $15 for the general public.

The Celebration Concert Series is presented by Tri States Public Radio in celebration of the partnership between public radio and live music presentation in the region. Tri States Public Radio, a member-supported service of the College of Fine Arts and Communication at Western Illinois University, provides news, music and entertainment broadcasts to the tri-state region 24-hours, 365-days a year and can be heard on the web at TSPR.org.
