Listen "Episode 59: Cleveland County's Own Laura Caroline to Open Rison in the Fall Festival with Country, Gospel & Grand Ole Opry Dreams!"
Episode Synopsis
One of Cleveland County’s own will be making the leap from attendee to performer at this year’s Rison in the Fall Festival, set for Saturday, Oct. 18 in Downtown Rison. Laura Caroline was born in Rison, but grew up in Kingsland attending elementary school, before her family relocated to Northern Arkansas.
Despite the move, Laura never lost her Cleveland County roots where she learned to sing in church at Kingsland Assembly of God. Now she will be taking the Rise Up Rison Stage at the festival, kicking things off at 1 p.m. Her full-band set - a first for the rising singer - will be followed by performances from Copper Flats, Ernie Halter, Thom and Coley, and acclaimed country artist Sunny Sweeney. Laura joins Festival Director Douglas Boultinghouse and Free Range Conversations Podcast hosts Britt Talent and Roy Phillips to talk about her plans for the festival, music and more including her dreams to play the Grand Ole Opry.
