Celebrating Johnny Mercer, #131

Celebrating Johnny Mercer, #131

A show full of the music of Johnny Mercer is a great way to kick off the holiday season!

You see, Thanksgiving is a few days away and, for most people, this week starts a dietary downward slide than crashes to a painful end on January 2nd. So our advice is try not to overindulge too much this holiday.

Swanson’s won’t admit it, but gravy kills.

But, just so you don’t feel deprived, we have something you CAN indulge in that’s calorie-free, delectable, and oh so entertaining!

It’s The Annual Johnny Mercer Birthday Bash!
