South Dakota and Wyoming Tours

Alaska Tours

With Soldotna as my base, I perform at festivals and venues across the Kenai Peninsula and beyond. Salmonfest--the largest outdoor music festival in Alaska--has been a highlight.  Great times performing, making friends, visiting with family, and, of course, salmon fishing!

Native American Music Awards - Seneca-Niagara Hotel

I was so honored that my Desert Rose album was a finalist for the Native Heart Award.  It was a wonderful weekend at the Seneca-Niagara Hotel & Casino.  I made new friends in the Native music genre and enjoyed outstanding music.

I was very honored to receive the 2018 Country & Western CD of the Year Award for my album, Desert Rose.  In 2017, my Crossing Borders album received the Original Western CD of the Year Award.  Thanks are extended to the Rural Roots Music Commission and Bob Everhart for his enormous efforts in organizing this week-long music gathering.

Radio Interview - FM 94.5 K-YA-T Gallup, NM

An enjoyable radio interview for folks on the Navajo Nation - promotion of my concert in the area.  A first for me--the interview was in both Navajo and English languages.

​Western Writers of America - Stagecoach Script Reading

A slight deviation from music, but here I am as Mrs. Lucy Mallory in a script reading of Stagecoach at the Western Writers of America.  We were under the capable direction of Emmy-winning producer and director, Kirk Ellis.

Fiddler's Dream, Phoenix

Janice Deardorff and I teamed up and took "Women of the West" on the road to Phoenix. Music is therapy and we both needed the healing it brings--I was recovering from a torn pec muscle and Janice the loss of a family member--but the show must go on and we're the better for it!

San Carlos Apache Reservation, Peridot, AZ

Picture
It was a privilege to provide music at this Memorial Rodeo held by my good friends the Preston's who lost their son the previous year. "Chuck" was well-known in the team roping circles as well as an accomplished artist and traditional dancer.  My Vision Across the Range album includes a song I wrote in his honor called "Roger Dale" which was Chuck's given name. The photo is with my friend Rick Uhl who accompanied me on guitar.
