By Quincy Thompson

Van Wert LIVE is thrilled to announce that country music legend Lorrie Morgan will bring her timeless voice to the Niswonger Performing Arts Center on Friday, January 30, 2026, at 7:30 PM, with platinum-selling artist Jamie O’Neal appearing as a special guest. This marks the first-ever appearance at the Niswonger for both acclaimed artists.

As one of the most eloquent voices in country music, Morgan has amassed multiple platinum and gold records and a string of Top 10 hits across three decades. O’Neal, known for powerhouse No. 1 singles like “There Is No Arizona” and “When I Think About Angels,” adds an unforgettable energy to a night of classic and contemporary country favorites.

“First Bank of Berne is proud to support the Niswonger Performing Arts Center and the upcoming Lorrie Morgan and Jamie O’Neal show. We believe that supporting and shopping local helps keep our communities strong.” shares Jenna Strayer, Business Banker at First Bank of Berne. 

Lorrie Morgan has been around great songs all her life. She is a Nashville native who is the daughter of Country Music Hall of Fame member George Morgan. She made her debut on the Grand Ole Opry stage at age 13, singing "Paper Roses." Lorrie Morgan began making her own records shortly thereafter and was inducted into the Grand Ole Opry at just 24 years old.

“Welcoming Lorrie Morgan and Jamie O’Neal to the Niswonger stage for the very first time is a thrill,” said Quincy Thompson, Marketing Director for Van Wert LIVE. “Their songs are part of the soundtrack of country music, and this will be a can’t-miss night for longtime fans and new audiences alike.”
