Summer series continues with Patsy Cline tribute

Published 4:03 pm Saturday, June 2, 2012

The Paramount Summer Under the Stars Season continues at 7:30 p.m. on June 16 with a Tribute to Patsy Cline featuring CoCo Walters.

Paramount patrons last saw CoCo on stage during the Age of Aquarius event last March. In this performance, CoCo will take the audience on a journey through Patsy’s entire career until the tragic airplane crash that took her life in 1963.

This event is in recognition of arguable one of the major female vocalists of all time. Patsy sold more than 10 million albums of her greatest hits and was named the No 1 Female Artist in 1961 and 1962. Other highlights from her career include “Crazy” (named No. 1 Juke Box Record), “I Fall to Pieces” (named No. 1 song of 1962), and elected posthumously as the first female artist inducted to the Country Music Hall of Fame in 1973.
