As part of a Summer Music Series, the Marianna Black Library in Bryson City will host acoustic country musicians Ron and Julia Thompson at 7 p.m. on Thursday, July 28. The program will be presented on the front porch of the library, and snacks and refreshments will be provided by the Friends of the Marianna Black Library.

Ron and Julia have been playing music together for 20 years, and Julia has been singing the country melodies of singers like Loretta Lynn since she was a little girl. In the years that they have been playing together, they’ve performed in most of the Southern states, as well as many local venues.
