Lacy J. Dalton Benefit Fundraiser for two local Schools of the
Oroville Union High School District.
1979's Academy of Country Music's Best New Female Vocalist, Lacy J. Dalton’s success is powered not just by her recordings, but by a stage show that truly electrified audiences. She quickly became one of the few women who could successfully open a show for the likes of Hank Williams Jr, Willie Nelson, Merle Haggard or Charlie Daniels. Not only could she do it, but she left audiences across the country hollering for more. Her hit records are legendary million-airplay cuts: Hard Times; Crazy Blue Eyes; Hillbilly Girl with the Blues; Takin’ It Easy; Everybody Makes Mistakes; the worldwide hit, Black Coffee and her signature song, 16th Avenue, the Anthem for Nashville songwriters voted one of Country’s Top 100 Songs ever by Billboard Magazine. Voted Best New Female Artist by the Academy of Country Music in 1979, she brought home numerous Grammy nominations and 3 prestigious Bay Area Music Awards for Best Country-Folk Recording, appearing with the likes of Neil Young, the Grateful Dead and Grace Slick and the Jefferson Airplane. Although Lacy’s hits from the past are great, her new material is simply over the top and shows wonderful variation in her distinct style. |
