“Not to brag, but Landau is a Logan County boy, like me, so you know he can sing,” said Jason A Young, the Robinson Grand’s Program Manager. “In all seriousness, he is one of our state’s treasures, and we are excited to have him on our Grand stage once again.”
The Saturday night concert is the finale of Clarksburg’s Winterfest. Held annually during the first weekend in December, the two-day community event in Downtown features a Christmas parade, tree lighting, artisan winter market, and local entertainment from children and adults of all ages.
