Branson Country USA - July 7, 2017

This week we welcome Country & Gospel Recording star, Barbara Fairchild!

Barbara Fairchild started her career at a very young age singing country music. She cut her very first single at only 15 years old. In 1963, she moved to St. Louis, MO, and by 1965, she was a regular on a local TV show and recorded for a local label, Norman Records.

1973 would turn out to be the breakthrough year for Barbara as she released the biggest hit of her career with "Teddy Bear Song". It not only became a number 1 hit on the country charts but also reached the pop charts as well peaking at No. 32. It was also nominated for a Grammy that year. "Teddy Bear Song" spent 2 weeks at the No. 1 spot and became her signature song.

In 1992, Barbara made Branson her home while performing with Mel Tillis. She went on to own and operate her own theatre for several years. Today, she continues to host her Sunday Morning Worship Service each Sunday at 10am, located at the Branson Famous Baldknobbers Theatre on Hwy 165.
