Southern Ground Amphitheater in Fayetteville finishes out its concert series Saturday, Aug. 8, with a bang with Wynonna & the Big Noise.
Clearly one of bestselling female country artists of the last 20 years, Wynonna will be with her powerhouse band, bringing a ton of old classics as well as new hits to the stage. Expect a high-energy performance from beginning to end. Opening for Wynonna is Nashville-based father/son duo Tim and Myles Thompson.
Wynonna has also been recording her forthcoming studio album, described as “vintage yet modern.” It’s just the latest in a string of hit albums that started with her quintuple platinum 1992 solo debut, “Wynonna.” That set spawned four number one hits and was the bestselling country album ever by a female artist at that time.
In 1994, Wynonna received the coveted Top Female Vocalist of the Year trophy at the ACM Awards, and Rolling Stone called her “the greatest female country singer since Patsy Cline.” Engaging the soulful, bluesy side of her voice only hinted at with The Judds, Wynonna went on to sell more than 10 million albums and reach new creative heights with six chart toppers of her own.
A few tickets still remain for Wynonna, and range from $45 – $58. Tickets to all shows are available at SouthernGroundAmp.com and at the Historic Courthouse in Downtown Fayetteville.
The Southern Ground Amphitheater is owned by the Downtown Development Authority and managed by the Main Street Tourism Association of Fayetteville.
