2010 ‘Music on the Mon’ proudly presents Chris Higbee Special Acoustic Performance
Chris Higbee, a fiddler and the founder of the American country music band Povertyneck Hillbillies (PNH) will be the first to take the stage at this year’s Music on the Mon concert series. Higbee’s acoustic performance will be held on July 11th at the Nemacolin Castle stage in Brownsville and will begin at 6pm. Open to all and free to attend, this is one summer event you won’t want to miss.
Born and raised in a country setting, Chris Higbee discovered his passion for country music at an early age. Playing the fiddle soon became a priority for Higbee, which later led to an exciting career in country music.
In 2000, Higbee partnered with some of his closest and most talented friends. This collaborative effort led to the creation of PNH. Named one of the top-selling independent country acts of 2005 by the Country Music Association, PNH has proven their exceptional talent and one-of-a-kind style. To compliment his previous success with PNH, Chris Higbee has continued to please his country fans with his charm, but with a new twist. Higbee is the founder of the new act the Chris Higbee Project. Consisting of some of Higbee’s friends, as well as some new uprising musicians, this fresh blend of talent brings a new meaning to country music and is sure to excite any audience.
The Music on the Mon began seven years ago with a partnership between the Pennsylvania Council on the Arts, Nemacolin Castle and the Brownsville Area Revitalization Corporation (BARC). BARC is a 501c3 non-profit organization whose mission is to achieve economic development through historic preservation, heritage tourism, outdoor recreation, community stewardship, education, youth advancement and the arts.
This concert series is supported by the Pennsylvania Council on the Arts, a state agency, and through its regional arts funding partnership with Pennsylvania Partners in the Arts (PPA). State government funding for the arts depends upon an annual appropriation by the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania and support from the National Endowment for the Arts, a federal agency. PPA is administered in this region by the Community Foundation of Fayette County.
For more information on these events contact the BARC Office at 724-785-9331.

Local Doctor Offers Opportunity for Face-to-Face Questions on Healthcare and Alternative Wellness Programs
Pittsburgh, PA (June 2010) – Upper Cervical Care is based on the universal law of cause and effect. For every effect or symptom (physical or mental), there must be a cause. Upper Cervical doctors focus their efforts on locating and correcting interference to the nervous system that may be the cause of a health condition. Correcting this interference can allow the body to heal itself naturally without the use of potentially harmful drugs or surgery. An Upper Cervical Correction is gentle and there is no forceful pulling, twisting or jerking motion of the neck. The correction is applied using a precise and controlled touch that allows the head, neck, and spine to return to their proper positions, restoring balance to the body and removing the interference.
Dr. Ian Bulow, one local chiropractor who practices Upper Cervical Care and owns a practice in Cranberry Twp., is offering an opportunity for a FREE DINNER and informative evening at Domenico’s Ristorante on Tuesday, July 20th at 6pm to learn more about the Power of Upper Cervical Care. Hear stories from patients who have found relief from Fibromyalgia, High Blood Pressure, Digestive Disorders, Headaches and many other conditions.
This dinner is open to everyone who wants to learn more about the wonderful world of Upper Cervical Care. Seating is limited so please RSVP before Friday, July 16th by visiting www.freedinnerpittsburgh.com or calling (724) 772-7060.
