专辑简介

Barbara Nelson plays guitar and sings western swing music, which is: a cross-section of folk songs, traditional cowboy, big band swing, jazz, blues, and old standards. She has had 2 nominations by the WMA for western swing cd’s. Rick Huff, WMA music critic, has written that “the principle feature of the Nelson releases is her rich, big band style of singing”. Corinne J. Brown, cd critic for Round-Up magazine, says “ western swing comes alive with her (Barbara’s) rich, sultry, smooth, and sophisticated voice. She makes every classic her own”. Corinne writes, she is the real deal; a musical treasure.

In February of this year Barbara was named female western singer of the year by the “Academy of Western Artists” and was presented the “Will Rogers” award in Fort Worth, Texas.
