March 23 is sold out! RICHARDSON, TX – Eisemann Center Presents Mandy Barnett in Sweet Dreams: The Music of Patsy Cline at the Eisemann Center, 2351 Performance Drive in Richardson, Texas on Thursday, March 22 & Friday, March 23, 2018 at 7:30 pm in the Bank of America Theatre. A singer since the age of five, Mandy Barnett is a world-class vocalist whose style is deeply rooted in the classic country and pop crooning of the all-time great singers. The Crossville, Tennessee native first garnered national attention as a teenager, earning rave reviews for her portrayal of the legendary Patsy Cline in the theatrical production Always…Patsy Cline at Nashville’s famed Ryman Auditorium, and appearing in this title role on the original cast album. Barnett’s Sweet Dreams album likewise salutes Cline. Barnett has since built on that stage success considerably, carving out a prolific recording career with multiple critically acclaimed albums and showcasing her one-of-a-kind vocal talent on stages across the country and around the globe – from international music festivals to the Grand Ole Opry. She released her debut album Mandy Barnett following the triumphant first run of Always…Patsy Cline, and the follow-up record, I’ve Got a Right to Cry, was produced by Nashville Sound pioneer Owen Bradley (producer of Loretta Lynn, Patsy Cline, and Brenda Lee), his final contribution to the music community before his death. I’ve Got a Right to Cry was named the top country album in the year of its release by Rolling Stone, and similar stellar reviews appeared in People, Newsweek, and other national magazines and newspapers. 2018 will bring a new Barnett album, an eclectic mix of Americana and roots music. Guitarist Andy Reiss, originally from San Francisco, moved to Nashville in 1981 and immediately became a mainstay of the Nashville studio scene. He has toured and recorded with Mandy Barnett for many years and is a member of the award- winning Western Swing group The Time Jumpers (with Vince Gill) seen at the Eisemann Center in 2015. Pianist and Nashville native Jason Coleman comes by his instrument naturally. The grandson of Country Music Hall of Fame member pianist Floyd Cramer, Coleman grew up performing with Cramer at his concerts and on television. Bassist Zeb Briskovich, from Saint Louis, began his musical career at age 10, playing professionally with his mother’s country band. In addition to Mandy Barnett, Briskovich has worked with musicians such as Bucky Pizzarelli, John Pizzarelli, Clark Terry, and Ann Hampton Calloway. Tickets are $29-$41 and are available for purchase online at www.eisemanncenter.com or by calling the Eisemann Center Ticket Office at 972-744-4650 and group discounts are available for 10 or more persons.

  • Multimillion-Selling Singer Crystal Gayle Has Performed Songs from a Wide Variety of Genres During Her Award-Studded Career, B
    MultiMillion-selling singer Crystal Gayle has performed songs from a wide variety of genres during her award-studded career, but she has never devoted an album to classic country music. Until now. You Don’t Know Me​ is a collection that finds the acclaimed stylist exploring the songs of such country legends as George Jones, Patsy Cline, Buck Owens and Eddy Arnold. The album might come as a surprise to those who associate Crystal with an uptown sound that made her a star on both country and adult-contemporary pop charts. But she has known this repertoire of hardcore country standards all her life. “This wasn’t a stretch at all,” says Crystal. “These are songs I grew up singing. I’ve been wanting to do this for a long time. “The songs on this album aren’t songs I sing in my concerts until recently. But they are very much a part of my history.” Each of the selections was chosen because it played a role in her musical development. Two of them point to the importance that her family had in bringing her to fame. You Don’t Know Me contains the first recorded trio vocal performance by Crystal with her singing sisters Loretta Lynn and Peggy Sue. It is their version of Dolly Parton’s “Put It Off Until Tomorrow.” “You Never Were Mine” comes from the pen of her older brother, Jay Lee Webb (1937-1996). The two were always close. Jay Lee was the oldest brother still living with the family when their father passed away.

    August 2012 Newsletter ------------------------------------ Yesterday & Today Records P.O.Box 54 Miranda NSW 2228 Phone: (02) 95311710 Email:[email protected] www.yesterdayandtoday.com.au ------------------------------------------------ Postage Australia post is essentially the world’s most expensive service. We aim to break even on postage and will use the best method to minimise costs. One good innovation is the introduction of the “POST PLUS” satchels, which replace the old red satchels and include a tracking number. Available in 3 sizes they are 500 grams ($7.50) 3kgs ($11.50) 5kgs ($14.50) P & P. The latter 2 are perfect for larger interstate packages as anything over 500 grams even is going to cost more than $11.50. We can take a cd out of a case to reduce costs. Basically 1 cd still $2. 2cds $3 and rest as they will fit. Again Australia Post have this ludicrous notion that if a package can fit through a certain slot on a card it goes as a letter whereas if it doesn’t it is classified as a “parcel” and can cost up to 5 times as much. One day I will send a letter to the Minister for Trade as their policies are distinctly prejudicial to commerce. Out here they make massive profits but offer a very poor number of services and charge top dollar for what they do provide. Still, the mail mostly always gets there. But until ssuch times as their local monopoly remains, things won’t be much different. ----------------------------------------------- For those long term customers and anyone receiving these newsletters for the first time we have several walk in sales per year, with the next being Saturday August 25th.

While I was introduced to Merriam’s work as a graduate student, I have long thought that this information would be a great component of undergraduate education, and I was pleased to find that students engaging with these ideas before embarking on their careers resulted in thoughtful discussions.

    BRENDA LEE by Tamela Meredith Partridge “Herald & Review” newspaper Decatur, IL. © 2003 Country Music Hall Of Famer, Brenda Lee, will bring her vibrant vocals to Nashville North USA on Saturday, November 20 at 5 p.m. and again at 8:00 p.m. Tickets are $23.50 and avail- able through the Nashville North USA box office or by calling 287-2103. Country and pop star Brenda Lee has been rockin’ music fans around the world for over four decades with such chart- topping hits as,“Rockin’ Around The Christmas Tree,” “I’m Sorry,” “The Crying Game,” “Nobody Wins” and “Big Four Poster Bed.” “I loved every song I ever recorded,” Brenda Lee said during a recent phone interview. “If I had not, I could not have sung them.” The songstress was born Brenda Mae Tarpley, the second of four children to parents Ruben and Grayce, in a Atlanta, Georgia hospital charity ward. Destined to sing her way out of an impoverished childhood, the young vocalist was first introduced to the music business at age five when she won first place at a local talent show with a touching rendition of “Take Me Out To The Ballgame.” Her father, a carpenter and semi-professional baseball player, was killed in a construc- tion accident when Brenda was only eight years old. In order to support the family, her mother went to work in a cotton mill while Brenda began singing to supplement the family income. Launching her professional singing career at age eleven on entertainer Red Foley’s popular weekly television show, “Ozark Jubilee,” provided a recording contract and financial relief for the struggling family.

Abstract The release of Loretta Lynn‟s 2004 album Van Leer Rose welcomed back after 33 years one of the premier feminist voices in recorded music. The songs that Loretta wrote in 60s and early 70s were some of the most controversial and politically charged to hit the airwaves. They encompassed a microcosm of issues that rural women were facing including the changing sexual roles of women, ideas on marriage, the ravages of war and substance abuse.
