CLASSIC HITS OF THE SIXTIES AND SEVENTIES
In the Sixties, popular music became influenced by rock and roll, the troubadour folk singers, R&B and Motown. This series includes songs by such artists as Frankie Valli, Dionne Warwick, Judy Collins, Carole King, Smokey Robinson, The Supremes, Roberta Flack, The Carpenters, Aretha Franklin, Sade, Bette Midler, and Stevie Nicks, among others.

COUNTRY
Originating in the South, country music remains America’s most popular musical style.  Story dominates; lyrics count more than melody, presenting the truths and emotions of everyday life.  Included are songs associat ed with such singers as Pasty Cline, Loretta Lynn, Barbara Mandrell, Lynn Anderson, Tammy Wynette, Dolly Parton, Anne Murray, Crystal Gayle, Glen Campbell and other great country stars.

In an era of thin voices and wispy emotions, Kristi King's mature sound and approach to a song are a breath of fresh air. We believe her when she delivers the plaintive lyrics of "I Can't Make You Love Me" or the saucy lines of "Fever."  

Her repertoire is amazingly versatile; she sings Aretha Franklin's "Chain of Fools" with the same authority as Doris Day's "Sentimental Journey." She reminds us of the songs we’ve loved and the singers who sang them. But, like a true pro, she interprets, never imitates.
