Catherine Britt . . .

Dolly Parton On-Line / Photos / Exclusive / Country Music DJ Hall Of Fame Dinner

Almost as pleasing as the Sunday morning fry-up! Click the link for a pic of the young Catherine in a photo shoot with one of her idols, Dolly Parton, and Martina McBride. Taken just the other night in Nashville and there's another one there if you want to find it. Heaps of Dolly with that permanent smile! You can read about the whole gig here.

I wonder if that same young kid who used to travel from the Central Coast to Sydney to sing a couple of songs at Bill and Audrey's Hillbilly Jam nights (on school nights as well!) ever thought she'd be up there with Dolly? She certainly has a lot of presence. It goes without saying Catherine probably would have found it a more dificult path to travel if it hadn't been for the dogged support and encouragement from her father. The same goes for the unfailing support and musical input from Bill Chambers - he deserves at least a medal. Would Father of New Australian Country be going too far? Link
