John Denver Tribute kicks off Community Concert Association season

The Crawford County Community Concert Association will bring John Denver Tribute artist Ted Vigil to Bucyrus on Oct. 12 to kick off its 2023-2024 season.

In 2006, he won the national title for “Talent Quest” in Laughlin, Nevada. After his win, Vigil — who resembles the late singer John Denver — began to plan his tribute show.

The John Denver Tribute concert takes place at 7 p.m. at the Bucyrus Elementary School Auditorium, 245 Woodlawn Ave. Doors open at 6:30.
