Review for Dale Ann Bradley:
Dale Ann Bradley is a five-time “IBMA Female Vocalist of the Year” winner and has recorded solo albums and has done collaborations with Alison Krauss "I'll Take Love" and "I Wish It'd Been You," among others. In 2013 she opened for Vince Gill when he performed at the Tivoli.
In 2011, she recorded her third release with Alison Brown. This album included "Country Songbird" Pam Tillis. Dale Ann, along with Pam Tillis, penned the title cut, "Somewhere South Of Crazy," and in 2011 the song was a nominee for Song of the Year and Album of the Year. In 2011-2012, the IBMA bestowed the Female Vocalist of the Year to her for the fifth time.
Some of her best known songs are “Catch Tomorrow,“ "Cumberland River Dreams," "Send the Angels Down" and "Don't Turn Your Back."
Her first release, “East Kentucky Morning” launched her into international media and airplay. She charted on Billboard, Gavin and International Bluegrass charts, was featured in Billboard magazine and dozens of major industry publications. The Grand Ole Opry opened its doors for Dale Ann to guest several times as a result of this project. Her second release, "Old Southern Porches," garnered more of the same accolades. "I was getting album reviews that I couldn't read," she laughs, "They were from all over the world." The third Pinecastle release was a gospel album, "Songs of Praise and Glory," which also shined especially in the Gospel market.
