Scotty Inman & Anthem Edition
Meramec Music Theatre 26 West Highway 8, Steelville, Missouri, United StatesScotty Inman & Anthem Edition, Live at Meramec Music Theatre, October 26, @ 6PM, Steelville MO
Anthem Edition burst onto the scene into 2003, initially as a trio called The Old Paths. Founding members Doug Roark and Tim Rackley set forth with a clear vision and mission: to glorify the Lord and seek His ways in everything. The trio soon morphed into a quartet, and started gaining national attention.
In late 2022, The Old Paths announced that they would be changing the name of the group. After much consideration and discussion, the new name Anthem Edition was announced, as well as the addition of Andrew Utech as the group’s new bass vocalist. While the music and message have stayed the same from the beginnings, Anthem Edition fully embodies the vision of the award-winning quartet, and positions them to forge their path into the future.

Christmas with The Malpass Brothers
Meramec Music Theatre 26 West Highway 8, Steelville, Missouri, United StatesChristmas with The Malpass Brothers,live at Meramec Music Theatre, Saturday, December 14 @ 2 PM
It was a transformative moment when two young brothers discovered their grandfather Malpass’ LPs collection. Drawn like a moth to a flame, the classic-filled treasure trove from the golden era of traditional country music gathered little dust in the Malpass household. It was musical Manna to the boys—there was nothing in the marketplace that fed The Malpass Brothers’ soul more than the music of this bygone era--and they would stay true to it.
Best known as modern-day troubadours who carry the torch for traditional country music, The Malpass Brothers began singing and playing together professionally at a very young age. Alongside their dad, Chris Malpass Sr., the siblings performed at churches all over the southeast, but they continued to hone their traditional sound by working alongside and amongst the legends.
