Our award-winning country queen Tami Neilson and her hot rocking band not only perform a stonking setlist of country classics for your listening pleasure, but answer the burning question why songs of feminism were banned from country radio. With the help of Dr Jada Watson, this tongue-in-cheek exposé of gender inequality in country champions the female artists, from Dolly Parton to Patsy Cline to Loretta Lynn to The (Dixie) Chicks, who smashed stereotypes and soared to #1 despite the barriers. We can’t think of a better way to celebrate International Women’s Day than riding in boots-up and lassos-out for Tami’s barnburner of a concert.
