Gretchen Wilson

A Benefit for the T.J. Martell Foundation featuring Gretchen Wilson and special guest Bombshel will take place at the Grove of Anaheim Wednesday, March 10, presented by GO Country 105.

To all appearances, Gretchen Wilson went overnight from talented obscurity to phenomenon. 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 and raucous crowds around the world.

Her second CD, All Jacked Up, rode enthusiastic reviews to platinum status as Gretchen's accomplishments continued to stack up. Her third, One of the Boys, solidified her position as one of contemporary country's most original and multi-faceted female artists, a woman in whom ambition and ability come together in every aspect of her career. In 2009, Gretchen launched her own record label, Redneck Records, and her first single release, “Work Hard, Play Harder,” is reminiscent of the music that brought her to the dance. Her debut album, I Got Your Country Right Here, will hit stores March 30, 2010.

Gretchen’s show at the Grove of Anaheim on March 10 will benefit the T.J. Martell Foundation, which over the past twenty-five years has provided over $27 million for pediatric cancer research at CHLA and is one of the largest private donors for pediatric cancer at CHLA.
