By Elisabeth Thornton/Cabarrus Arts Council
Every year Cabarrus County native Jim Avett travels the country performing gospel and country music in listening rooms and festivals, but he always makes time for Davis Theatre audiences.
Audiences love Jim Avett’s gospel music, and come back to the Davis Theatre year after year.
