Lacy J. Dalton


  She's one of the most instantly recognizable voices in music - the woman People magazine called "Country's Bonnie Raitt." From the first time Lacy J. Dalton caught the public's ear, that soulful delivery, full of texture and grit, was a mainstay of country music. When you sit down to listen to Lacy, you find yourself pulled in by the very power and heart of this vocalist, because she's not merely performing a set, she's bringing each and every tune of life. It's as if they were all especially written for her.

Lacy J. Dalton's music is a product of her wide-ranging musical tastes. She was born in Bloomsburg, Pennsylvania, into a family of music lovers. Her father played a variety of stringed instruments, sang and wrote songs. Her mother played guitar and sang harmony, and her sister was a pianist. Lacy's early influences were the folk and rock sounds of Bob Dylan and Joan Baez. She's always been a writer and artist who loved music with a message, lyrics that somehow brought a new awareness to the listener. She retains this love of material with a purpose, and her song choices reflect that appreciation.

Since 1980, Lacy has recorded a total of fourteen albums which include three "greatest hits" packages. Nine albums were recorded for CBS Records and Lacy released her fifth album for Liberty Records called "The Best of Lacy J Dalton" in April of 1993. Most of Lacy's early albums were produced by Billy Sherril (George Jones, Tanya Tucker, Tammy Wynette, Willie Nelson, Ray Charles, etc). Her last four albums have been co-produced by Lacy and Liberty Records president Jimmy Brown (George Strait, Reba McEntyre, Hank Williams Jr., Glen Campbell, etc.).

Lacy has had many hit singles including "Crazy Blue Eyes", "Hillbilly Girl With The Blues", "Takin' It Easy", "16th Avenue", Dream Baby", "The Heart", and more recently "Black Coffee". Lacy has received gold records from Willie Nelson for her duet with Willie on his "Half Nelson" album (she was the only female to appear on this record) and from Hank Williams, Jr. for her support of his tour commemorating his fiftieth album ("Five-0")

Lacy has been nominated for Best Female Vocalist several times throughout her career and in 1979 won the Academy of Country Music's Best New Female Vocalist award. Her songs have been nominated for Grammy Awards and she has numerous BMI awards for airplay. She also won Best Country Performer from the Bay Area Music Awards in California three years in a row.

Lacy feels she has earned accolades by choosing top-flight material from Nashville's finest songwriters. She goes to great lengths to insure that her songs are not just flash-in-the-pan hits but classic songs that will wear well year after year. She also has produced a flexible stage show that allows her to work in all manner of settings from County Fairs to opening for Charlie Daniels and Hank Williams, Jr., and headlining at the prestigious Harrahs Casinos.

For many years Lacy has enjoyed great popularity and an extremely positive relationship with not only the media, but with her fans as well. She is an innovative and creative artist with a great deal of real-life experience and an earthy honesty which she brings to her work. The name Lacy J. Dalton is synonymous with quality, originality, and integrity.
