Linda came to Nashville from Wabash, arkansas in 1973 determined to make a career in the music business and her determination paid off. On linda''s first visit to Nashville she recorded a demo session with Fred Carter at Nugget studios. She also heard that Opryland USA was having its last day of auditions for talent for the new season, so she packed up her guitar and went to audition."There were so many people there", she says. "When it was my turn i''de been there five hours and i was so tired i wasn''t nervous".
Linda ,who is a petite blonde with a warm smile and energy that is beyond the small frame, performed in the Country Music USA show at Opryland for seven years. Opryland chose linda to portray barbera Mandrel, Tammy Wynette and the legendary Minnie pearl, all of which combined in a great display of Lindas versatility. she was among the elite of the Opryland performers who were chosen to tour with the troupe to major citites across the US during the Winter months.

They are very proud of her."I sang in the chruch when I was 15, i became a regular member of the Arkansas Jambore. I guess I really got excited about being a singer when I won a local talent contest and i realized that it was possible for me to move Nashville and record and be in the music business".
