To The Leader

 

Named among Rolling Stone’s “New Artists You Need To Know” and Roughstockʼs “Ones To Watch” with a tour schedule to prove it, Farewell Angelina has opened shows for the likes of Kenny Chesney, Old Dominion, Jake Owen, Billy Currington and Maroon 5. After hearing the undeniable magic of their voices together, the band couldn’t wait to take their show on the road. 

“This project was fully funded by our fans! We co-produced, something that truly captured our musical sisterhood while working alongside the best musicians and engineers in the business. Thankful and excited to bring this music on the Women & Wine Tour.” 

Farewell Angelina’s chemistry lives in watching each other shine, and most of all, creating moments every night with the Country Music fans they love so much. The relationship they share with their fans won them the fan-voted “Hot Seat” spot of the Taste of Country 2017 “RISERS” Program by over 20,000 votes.

Named after a haunting Bob Dylan song, Farewell Angelina, the female country group impresses with four powerhouse vocalists, dynamic songwriters, and accomplished multi-instrumentalists. A band of longtime friends, Nicole Witt, Andrea Young, Lisa Torres & Ashley Gearing all met pursuing their dreams in Nashville, TN. Each deeply respected and admired one another while they were building successful solo careers, touring and recording with top artists, and writing songs for some of Country Music’s biggest hitmakers.

Their stellar blend of heart-stopping harmonies over blazing double guitars has earned soaring praise across the board. Roughstock praised them as a “Superstar Act… with Killer Songs;” Rolling Stone “Wickedly smart songwriting delivered with a healthy dash deft playing… into one sonic knockout punch.”

The Lutcher Theater is a 1450-seat, state-of-the-art, world-class performing arts facility and the prominent presenter of Broadway, national and international tours, award-winning artists, renowned dance and acclaimed children’s performances for Southeast Texas and Southwest Louisiana.
