Belinda Gail Interview on Backstory Song

Belinda Gail was raised on ranches in Nevada’s Carson Valley and in the California Sierra Nevada foothills near Sequoia National Park.  She began singing and writing western songs from her personal experiences growing up in this farm country.  In 1996 she went on her first tour as an opening act and she has not stopped.  Since then, she has been named seven times as the Female Performer of the Year by the Western Music Association.  She was recently listed as one of the top 50 Country and Western Entertainers of all time by American Cowboy Magazine in their collector edition entitled “Legends.” Her endearing and high energy performances have earned her the deserved nickname as “America’s Western Sweetheart.”
