September 2009 - Winner of Best Event at the British
Country Music Awards
Manchester based Country Music stars Jeanne Jordan and
BJ Thomas from Solid Gold Country Legends and Dolly, The
Show have secured the Best Event award at a glittering
award ceremony at Fort San Antone, Great Birchwood
Country Park in Warton on 19th September.
 The
show was nominated in May 2009 alongside four other events
and a nail-biting two months followed, where the public
voted for their favourite event for the 2009 British
Country Music Awards.
Solid Gold Country Legends has been running for over
seven years and it brings together the perfect mix of
old and new country hits from the classics of Hank
Williams, Patsy Cline, Willie Nelson, Tammy Wynette to
Garth Brooks and Shania Twain to name just a few.
Dolly, The Show now on its third year of touring is a
celebration of a legend, Dolly Parton, an award winning
singer, composer, musician, actress and author. The show
is packed full of the greatest songs that made her the
world icon she is today.
BJ Thomas comments ‘We are all thrilled that the
audience who come to see us believe in what we do and
the accolade of Best Event is humbling. We all live for
Country Music and thanks to all the support we are able
to continue in touring our show.’
The British Country Music Awards & Hall Of Fame was set
up by British publication Cross Country, after they felt
there was no formal recognition of the talent, devotion,
skill and belief in the grassroots of British Country
music.
The 2009 event was well attended with winners and
supporters turning out in force to celebrate to
occasion.
The Best Event award was presented by Chris Jackson from
Americana International and was collected by Barry
Gaskell, ex Pedal Steel player from Solid Gold Country
Legends and Helen Thompson the shows Marketing and PR
Manager. The team, unfortunately, were unable to attend
the ceremony as they were away on tour.
