Rising stars at Buck Owens Crystal Palace

It takes lots of guts to stand up on stage and sing your heart out, especially at a big venue like Buck Owens Crystal Palace. That's what I saw and heard on Jan. 8 at a performance by two of country music's rising stars. Stephanie Quayle and Lainey Wilson, who are both seasoned country artists, lit up the stage at a packed house at the Palace. Both artists have been proclaimed by CMT (Country Music Television) as their "Next Women of Country" for 2019.

This was a special Free Listener show that happens from time to time presented by KUZZ Radio, with a couple of other local sponsors. Since I am a regular attendee, and the venue being just 45 minutes from Tehachapi, this was a show I could not pass up and I was sure glad I went.

Both artists were very appreciative of the opportunity and I think the crowd had the same feeling as there were many standing ovations. The dance floor was full of young and old alike enjoying the song selections.

I can't recommended enough the Crystal Palace for music, great food and fun for the whole family.
