Linda Davis performing in McConnelsville

McCONNELSVILLE − Linda Davis will perform for the Ohio Valley Opry at 6 p.m. Saturday at the Twin City Opera House, 15 W. Main St., McConnelsville. It's her second appearance for the OVO.

Labeled a song stylist, Davis’ unique ability to interpret a song has made her one of Nashville's favorite vocalists. As her talents began to catch the attention of label executives, she landed her first record deal with CBS/Epic Records.Davis gained a legion of friends and fans in the music industry, one being superstar Reba McEntire. Their mutual respect led them into the studio together where they recorded a duet entitled "Does He Love You" that went on to become a number one hit and earned both artists several awards, including a Grammy for Best Country Vocal Collaboration.

Carrying on the tradition, Linda and her husband, Lang Scott, are the parents of Hillary Scott of Lady A. Along with the help of producer, Ricky Skaggs, the Lang family recorded the album "Love Remains." From that album they received Grammy awards for best contemporary Christian music album and best contemporary Christian music song for "Thy Will."

In 2007, Davis was inducted into the Texas Country Music Hall of Fame and received the Candlelight Award from the Music City Christian Fellowship.

Also appearing at the OVO show will be newcomer Brayden Booth, Eli Clark, Matt Coleman, Mike Morrison, The Clark Family and the staff band, along with steel guitarist David Spires of Zanesville.

Doors open at 5 p.m. Tickets are available at ohiovalleyopry.com or by calling 740-525-9218. Tickets are $18 to $30.
