Sara Evans - 21 Days of Christmas

Multiple award-winning country singer Sara Evans is one of the genre's most enduring talents, producing such hits as “Suds in the Bucket,” “A Real Fine Place to Start,” “Perfect” and “A Little Bit Stronger.” Possessing an instantly recognizable contralto, she gained a record contract in 1996 when her rendition of Buck Owens' "I've Got a Tiger by the Tail" impressed its songwriter Harlan Howard so much he felt duty-bound to help her. After 1997's traditionalist debut, "Three Chords & the Truth," Evans transitioned to a contemporary sound for 1998's "No Place That Far" and continued to evolve with the industry's changes. Her catalogue boasts three platinum albums and numerous gold records. She has topped the country singles as well as country albums charts, and has been awarded by most of the top ceremonies, including Billboard, CMA, BMI, and ACM. While growing up poor in rural Missouri, Evans performed with her family's band at the age of four and even recorded in Nashville just a few years later. The group opened for Willie Nelson and Tim McGraw, among others. After her debut album, "Three Chords and the Truth," was released in July 1997, Evans earned a special honor by being handpicked by George Jones to open a special show in Nashville. "No Place That Far" followed a year later, breaking into the U.S. pop charts and eventually reaching gold certification. Her big breakthrough was 2000's Born to Fly. The title track was a big hit for Evans, and the album eventually peaked in the Top Ten of Billboard's country charts, going double-platinum in the process. Her latest album, "Copy That," is an eclectic covers album dominated by classic pop hits from the '70s and '80s but also featuring Old Crow Medicine Show supporting the singer on an old-timey version of Hank Williams' "I'm So Lonesome I Could Cry." This show was rescheduled from July due to Hurricane Beryl.
