About Me
“Say hello to the new Dolly!†That’s what Country Weekly Magazine had to say when they named Christy McDonald the “one to watchâ€.
Since her appearance on the third season of USA Network’s Nashville Star, the Tabor City Native has found herself busier than ever. Thanks to the buzz from the show and media outlets, such as, Star Magazine, Access Hollywood, CMT Canada, GAC TV and even a live performance on the legendry WSM AM Grand Ole Opry program, McDonald was able to quit her receptionist job at Warner Bros Records to book and manage her own tour. She headlined many performances and had the opportunity to open for artists like Montgomery Gentry, Hank Jr. & Trace Adkins, among others. McDonald recently has been living and performing in Canada gaining new fans! Where she took the same stage as Lionel Richie, Larry the Cable Guy, & Martina McBride. Fans have lined up to buy CDs, DVDs and other merchandise.
In addition to touring, McDonald has enjoyed many other highlights, such as, singing the National Anthem for 73,000 NFL fans, providing background vocals on Hank Williams Jr’s I’m With You CD, performing on the Muzik Mafia stage at John Rich’s (Big & Rich) request and making appearances to support the Human Rights, Miller Harris and Christmas for Kids charities.
McDonald recently signed a production deal with Music Row veteran, Ree Guyer Buchanan of Wrensong Publishing, who’s had a big hand in the careers of recording artists: Sherrie’ Austin, Blue County, Jon Randall, Ashley Monroe and actor-turned-singer, John Corbett (Sex in the City).
