SHEFFIELD—Colbert County Tourism proudly announces a special benefit concert, “FAME
Girls Ranch Benefit in Honor of Rick Hall,” as part of our acclaimed We Rocked the World
Concert Series! Join us at the historic Ritz Theatre on November 7, 2024, at 7:00 PM for an
unforgettable evening celebrating the iconic hits recorded at FAME Recording Studios, all while
supporting the Colbert County FAME Girls Ranch.
“Thanks to Colbert County Tourism and Billy Lawson for putting this event on. The Girls Ranch
was very near and dear to Rick’s and my heart. The girls are there through no fault of their own
but because of the choices the adults in their lives have made. It will be a great show for a great
cause. We hope you’ll attend,” added Linda Hall, wife of the late Rick Hall.
The show kicks off at 7:00 PM with doors opening at 6:30 PM. Tickets are available for $35
downstairs and $30 upstairs. The lineup promises a night of great music, featuring Grand Ole
Opry member T. Graham Brown with hits like Hell and High Water and Wine into Water.
FAME’s own talents Angela Hacker and James LeBlanc will bring their soulful sound,
alongside Mark Narmore, writer of Moon Over Georgia. Billy Lawson and his Wishbone band
will perform classic FAME songs, honoring Rick Hall’s legendary influence.
Located at 11 W 3rd St, Sheffield, Alabama, the Ritz Theatre provides a nostalgic backdrop for
this extraordinary event. Proceeds from the concert will benefit the Colbert County FAME Girls
Ranch, which occupies the former home of the Rick Hall family of FAME Recording Studios.
The ranch supports local youth, providing enriching activities such as annual beach trips and
outings to the Space and Rocket Center.
“This concert pays tribute to the rich musical legacy of FAME Recording Studios while
supporting a vital cause in our community,” expressed Susann Hamlin, President and CEO of
Colbert County Tourism.
Don’t miss this opportunity to enjoy a night of incredible music while supporting a worthy cause.
