Connie Smith has been named the 2011 resident artist at the Country Music Hall of Fame in Nashville, and will be performing and hosting shows there on Aug. 22 and 29 and Sept. 12 at 7 p.m.
Past honorees have included Earl Scruggs, Tom T. Hall, Vince Gill, Guy Clark, Jerry Douglas, Kris Kristofferson and my favorite to date, Cowboy Jack Clement.
Here’s a video of the 23-year-old Connie Smith just starting her career.
