Grammy-winning country legendary star Lee Ann Womack meets up with another country star Mark Chesnutt for a one-time only concert event Saturday, Aug. 7, at the Morton Arboretum in Lisle, Ill. There is no doubt that Womack is best known for her chart-topping single “I Hope You Dance,” is a Texas-born singer and songwriter who followed a life as a performing artist from a very young age. Her career in Nashville started in the mid-‘90s, in that time she has recorded seven albums, her most latest being Call Me Crazy in 2008. The Country legendary star Lee Ann Womack received the Country Music Association’s Female Vocalist award in 2001. Classic country performers influenced Womack in her early years, artists such as Tammy Wynette, George Jones, Bob Wils, Ray Price and Glen Campbell. She considers her road act real, authentic country. Womack spoke with Windy City Times about the forthcoming performance, the approach she takes to performing in markets like Chicago that aren’t predominantly country and she also shared her views about singer/songwriter Chely Wright coming out last May as the first lesbian country star.
