NEW YORK – Oct. 30, 2020 – PRLog — Carter Calvert is extremely excited to share her upcoming live concert Walkin’ After Midnight with fans young and beyond honoring the indelible musician Patsy Cline. Cline is considered one of the most influential vocalists of the 20th century and the first country music artist to successfully cross over into pop music. As live performances continue to cross over from in house audiences to live streaming, featuring a woman artist who broke barriers with her voice and songs, reflects the current climate for historical changes being made by women today.
Calvert shares with KeyMedia Public Relations, “It is important to remember and remind people just how influential Patsy Cline was. Young female artists today have such an advantage, with hard battles fought and won around equality and artistic expression tackled by artists like Patsy Cline. She has opened the doors for the likes of Taylor Swift and Carrie Underwood who attract country and pop audiences. Ms. Cline was not to be pigeonholed and audiences related to her sincerity, honesty, and vulnerability with a voice that carried her emotions through every bone of her body. When she sang, there were no fences or restrictions. I love performing Walkin’ After Midnight; as it allows me to share interesting stories about this legend’s life and fun tidbits about how many of her hit songs came about.”
Portraying an iconic performer is not an easy task and Carter Calvert who has been starring in the two-person musical, Always Patsy Cline all over the county alongside Emmy Award winner Sally Struthers for the past decade aims to honor the late Cline in the new digital age, in a more intimate way.
