  • Deana Carter Danny Myrick
    Deana Carter DEANA CARTER, the daughter of famed studio guitarist and producer Fred Carter, Jr., grew up surrounded by musical greats, including Willie Nelson, Bob Dylan, Waylon Jennings, and Simon & Garfunkel. She developed her songwriting skills at writer’s nights throughout Nashville, but her real break came when one of her demo tapes fell into the hands of Willie Nelson, who remembered Deana as a child. Impressed with how she’d grown as a songwriter, Nelson asked Deana to perform along with John Mellencamp, Kris Kristofferson, and Neil Young, as the only female solo artist to appear at Farm Aid VII in 1994. Her 1996 debut album Did I Shave My Legs for This? quickly climbed to the top of both the country and pop charts, quickly achieving multi-platinum status. "Strawberry Wine,” the first single from the album, was awarded CMA's 1997 Single of the Year. Seven albums and a decade later, Deana is still writing and producing for both the pop/rock and country markets when not on the road touring. Her superstar success continues to be evident. Her chart topper “You & Tequila,” co-written with Matraca Berg and recorded by Kenny Chesney, was nominated in 2011 as CMA’s “Song of the Year” and received two Grammy nods. Carter also recently co-wrote and produced a new album for recording artist Audra Mae while putting the finishing touches on her own Southern Way of Life that hit the shelves last December. Danny Myrick DANNY MYRICK is an award winning songwriter and musician based here in Nashville.

    NEW DATE ANNOUNCED FOR KRIS KRISTOFFERSON and THE STRANGERS FRIDAY, NOVEMBER 20, Kris Kristofferson & The Strangers headline the National Fiddler Hall of Fame Gala Concert with four stellar inductees and special guests at the Mabee Center, Tulsa OK. Emcees are Billy Parker and Tess Maune. Kristofferson sent a thank you message for moving the concert date from March to November due to coronavirus worldwide concerns. “We are looking forward to being in Tulsa this fall. By then we should be seeing the country returning to some normalcy. We really appreciate you making this change.” NFHoF president Bob Fjeldsted states the other performers echo this sentiment and are on board for the concert at 7:00 p.m. on November 20 at the Mabee Center. An exciting celebration is in store for all, with the world's best talents here for the National Fiddler Hall of Fame 2020 Gala induction concert. Headlining the event in full concert is the amazing and multi-talented Kris Kristofferson and his band, The Strangers.

His story includes the reasons for writing hits like “Help Me Make it Through The Night” and the pivotal experience resulting in his moving classic, “Why Me Lord?” VIP table ticket holders will enjoy early doors at 5:30pm, full dinner at 6pm, a Meet and Greet with the artists, and a Pre-Show by the popular bluegrass band SpringStreet and special guests.
