Info got from Kasey Jones!


Kacey Jones
is performing at
The Americana Music Awards Show
Friday, September 22nd at
THE RYMAN AUDITORIUM
(show starts at 7:00 p.m.)

Also during the Americana Honors & Awards, the family of Mickey Newbury will accept the Americana Music Association's President's Award, which is traditionally given in posthumous recognition for outstanding contributions by an artist or group. As part of the presentation, Kacey Jones will sing Newbury's, Lie To Me Darlin' from her tribute album, Kacey Jones Sings Mickey Newbury.

"Mickey Newbury's songs will be performed and remembered forever, and it's now time to celebrate his life, artistic career and influence on so many songwriters and musicians," says AMA Executive Director, Jeff Green.

Kacey Jones is attending the Americana Music Conference at the Nashville Convention Center on Thursday, Sept. 21st and Friday, Sept. 22nd.
She will be available for interviews, etc., at the IGO Records booth (# 59)
adjacent to the Mickey Newbury booth (# 60).

"Kacey Jones may very well be staring a GRAMMY nomination in the face at the end of the year, this album is that powerful..."
------Greg Roberts / Country Line Magazine - Austin, TX

"Jones, known for her comedy albums and hanging out with Garrison Keillor at Lake Wobegon, breaks your heart on this exquisite disc....she honors a singular talent as only another singular talent could."------David Wiegand / The San Francisco Chronicle

"I'm leery of tribute albums, but this is a good one. Thanks, Kacey."
------Kris Kristofferson

"Newbury's lush lyrical talents lend themselves to Jones' lush interpretations. I'm not calling either of them a lush---just a union made in heaven."-----Kinky Friedman
