WILLIE NELSON
If ever the words “living legend” would define a music artist, this would be Willie Nelson.
The iconic Texan is the creative genius behind historical recordings like “Crazy,” “Hello Walls,” “Red Headed Stranger” and Stardust.” His career has spanned six decades. His catalog boasts more than 200 albums. He’s earned every conceivable award and honor to bestowed on a person in his profession. He also amassed reputable credentials as an author, actor and activists.
In many ways, however, the weighty distinction “living legend” does Nelson a disservice, for it discounts the extent to which he is thriving, relevant and progressive musical force in the year 2004. He has released two new albums, recently embarked on an imaginative tour with a fellow musical icon, again headlined Farm Aid, has established himself as a top television ratings draw, has a recent Number 1 single and a Super Bowl performance under his belt.
SARA EVANS
Strength, versatility and a spunky sense of adventure are qualities more often associated with literary heroines that successful country singers, but then there’s nothing typical about Sara Evans. Whether dominating country radio airwaves with one of her many hit singles or attracting a new legion of fans with her spirited turn on “Dancing with the Stars,” Evans’ drive, talent and determination have placed her in an elite class of artists who transcend musical genres to become a household name.
Indeed, Evans was on her way to becoming one of the most successful female artists of her generation. She’s won numerous accolades, among them the Academy of Country Music’s Female Vocalist of the Year and the Country Music Association’s Video of the Year for “Born to Fly.” She has been celebrated as one of People magazine’s “50 Most Beautiful People.”
Evans has earned numerous #1 hits, two of which she co-wrote, including “Born to Fly,” “No Place That Far,” “Suds In the Bucket,” and “A Real Fine Place to Start,” which spent two weeks at the top of the country charts.
