The Virtual Opry
Stage
An outstanding added attraction at the August 10 Bethel
Woods Brad Paisley Virtual Realty World Tour 2012 show was the show put on at
the Virtual Opry Stage featuring up and coming country western
singers,
Taking this stage some two and one-half hours prior to the
Paisley show were the acts of Love & Theft, Kristen Kelly and Jana
Kramer.
An enthusiastic crowd stood or sat on the ground, sometimes
with a light rain falling, enjoying country music the way country music fans
do.
Love & Theft and Kristen Kelly are stars in the making
while Jana Kramer has definitely climbed aboard the stardom train with her song
"Why Ya Wanna", currently #8 on the Billboard Chart and #7 on the Music Row
Chart. Liberty based country radio station Thurder 102 is a Music Row reporting
station.
In 2002 Kramer made her acting debut in the low budget
independent Horror film, "Dead Undead." The following year Kramer guest appeared
on "All My Children."
She appeared in a number of different acting roles through
February 2012.
Her music career started in February 2011 when she signed a
recording contract with Elektra Records and that same month she premiered her
promo track, "I Won't Give Up", which premiered in the One Tree HIll episode
"Holding Out For A Hero", was released the following day exclusively on iTunes
and Amazon and the son reached number 75 on the US Billboard Hot 100
chart.
The following month Kramer began work on her debut album
with country music producer Scott Henricks producing the majority of the
record.
In April 2011 she released another promo track titled
"Whiskey" which reached number 99 on the US Billboard Hot 100
chart.
Her official debut single "Why Ya Wanna" first peaked at
number 68 on the US Billboard Hot 100 chart and number 12 on the US Billboard
Hot Country Songs chart.
Kramer's vocal performance at Bethel Woods was outstanding
and her style and voice won over many country music fans.
This Rochester, Michigan native is well on her way to
stardom and her appearances with the Brad Paisley Virtual Realty World Tour is a
big plus career factor.
Thanks Bethel Woods for making this happen.
