On Sunday, September 23rd, Solomons will light up with excitement when the most famous "Redneck Woman," Gretchen Wilson, performs at the Calvert Marine Museum.

To all appearances, Gretchen Wilson went overnight from talented obscurity to phenomenon. Her meteoric rise, the kind experienced by only a handful of artists in the past few decades, was that rare instance where talent and moment meet to form a cultural tidal wave.

Her first single, "Redneck Woman," spent six weeks at #1; her debut album, Here For The Party, sold more than five million copies; she won across-the-board awards including a Grammy and ACM, CMA and AMA nods for best female vocalist; and she toured to large crowds around the world. Her second CD, All Jacked Up, rode enthusiastic reviews to platinum status as Gretchen's accomplishments continue to stack up.

Gretchen Wilson's appearance at the Calvert Marine Museum will be a special fundraiser to support the repair and renovation of the Cove Point Lighthouse. All proceeds from this show will go to support the preservation of this historic 200 year-old active aid to navigation. Please spread the word about this show so that the lighthouse can receive the repairs she so badly needs!

Tickets for this show will go on sale to members Tuesday, August 14th., and on sale to the public Tuesday, August, 21st.

Premium seats will be $50, and reserved seats will be $40. All tickets are subject to a processing fee.
