Wynonna Judd returns to the Bass Performance Hall after a sold out performance in 2006. She will be backed by the Fort Worth Symphony Orchestra for this exclusive three-night engagement, featuring many of her own hits along with other well-known standards.
Judd first came into prominence as part of the legendary mother-daughter duo The Judds in 1984 and has been critically lauded around the world as one of the finest vocalists of our time. She recently released her first solo Christmas CD, continues to tour with some of the most esteemed orchestras in the country, and is scheduled to release her seventh studio album in 2008. In 2005 she added New York Times best-selling author to her already extraordinary resume, with her first autobiography. She also released the musical journey of her life (on double-live CD and recently certified gold DVD) titled Her Story: Scenes from a Lifetime. Judd also hosted the fourth season of USA Network’s "Nashville Star," the most watched country music program in the country.
Celebrating twenty-three milestone years as a music icon with twenty No. 1 hits, Judd continues to blaze trails with her compassionate artistry. She signed her first solo record deal in 1992 and the rest, as they say, was history. As an award-winning solo artist, she has had thirteen No. 1 hits. Prior to this solo success, her history with The Judds became a story for the record books. The Judds became one of the most celebrated success stories in country music history. In just six short years they had sold more than twenty million records worldwide and had won over sixty industry awards including five Grammys, nine Country Music Association Awards and eight Billboard Music Awards. In 2002 Wynonna and Naomi were named two of the "40 Greatest Women of Country Music" by CMT. The Judds are universally loved and still regarded as country music royalty for music fans around the globe.
