The WYO Theater is announcing the return of the “Queen of Bluegrass,” Rhonda Vincent & The Rage thanks to a collaboration between The WYO Performing Arts & Education Center and Big Brothers Big Sisters of Sheridan.

Rhonda Vincent & The Rage will perform at the WYO Theater beginning at 7 p.m. Friday April 21, marking the fourth time Vincent and her band have performed in Sheridan – most recently to a sold-out crowd in 2017.

According to the WYO, Vincent’s passion for music evolved into a successful career in bluegrass; after being discovered by Grand Ole Opry Star “Jim Ed Brown,” and later spending what she calls her musical college years recording for Giant Records; and learning about the music business from Nashville’s best like James Stroud, Jack McFadden, and Stan Barnett. It was her pivotal bluegrass album “Back Home Again” that transformed Vincent into the All-American Bluegrass Girl, crowned the New Queen of Bluegrass by “The Wall Street Journal” in 2000.

Vincent is a multi-award winner, with a Grammy for Best Bluegrass Album as well as Entertainer of the Year, Song of the Year, and an unprecedented seven consecutive Female Vocalist of the Year awards from the International Bluegrass Music Association. Vincent’s lifelong dream came true when she was invited to be a member of the Grand Ole Opry in 2020 and was inducted, a year later, in 2021. 

The WYO is inviting the public to purchase tickets to see the All-American Bluegrass Girl back in Sheridan while also supporting the WYO and Big Brothers Big Sisters, Friday April 21.
