Contributors

mandy barnettThe Shenandoah Jamboree makes its debut at the Historic Wayne Theatre Ross Performing Arts Center on Saturday, April 2, with a performance by special guest Mandy Barnett headlining the event.

Tickets are $25 and $35 and can be purchased by calling the Wayne Theatre office at (540) 943-9999.

Barnett is a world-class vocalist whose style is deeply rooted in the classic country and pop crooning of the all-time great singers.

She burst onto the national scene as a teenager earning rave reviews for her portrayal of the legendary Patsy Cline in the stage show Always…Patsy Cline at Nashville’s famed Ryman Auditorium, and appearing in this title role on the original cast album.

Barnett has since built on that 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.

Barnett has appeared on The Tonight Show with Jay Leno, The Late Show with David Letterman, CBS Sunday Morning, PBS’s Sessions at West 54th and numerous other television programs throughout her career. Additionally, she has been a featured artist on a host of movie and television series soundtracks and even sang on the SpongeBob SquarePants album, sharing the spotlight with the likes of Brian Wilson, Tommy Ramone, and others.

The family-friendly Shenandoah Jamboree concert series, featuring host Lisa Meadows, will be held on the first Saturday of each month April-December at the Wayne Theatre.
