The show is a variety classic country show with Lallie Bridges (in costume) doing impersonations of Patsy Cline, Loretta Lynn and Tammy Wynette along with your favorite traditional country standards. It is definitely a must see for all who truly love country music the way it used to be. Seeing the show is like taking a walk down Nashville’s Music Row in the 60’s and 70’s!
