Week of January 14, 2008
January 16, 2008 - It's been thirty four years since Rhonda Vincent received her first award from the SPBGMA (Society for Preservation of Bluegrass Music in America) for Best Single Recording for "Muleskinner Blues," and not only is she still kicking, she is on top of the world as her 2008 album, Good Thing Going debuted on top of Billboard's Bluegrass charts.
"I am thrilled!" said Rhonda Vincent. "It is particularly gratifying since I co-wrote five songs on this album. That makes it even more special to me."
In his review of Good Thing Going, AboutCountry's Scott Sexton states: "Every time she releases a new CD, you are able to see progress she has made. She grows personally and emotionally with each project and never stops striving for something better."
Rhonda will be kicking off her "Good Thing Going" tour on January 18th. See her Spring tour dates below, courtesy of Pollstar.
