My album "Big Band Country" (combining country and big band music) came out years ago but the lead single from that album is still a dancer favorite whenever Nancy Hays is performing in the UK, on a cruise or anywhere else. It was choreographed by the one and only Jo Thompson Szymanski, along with Michael Barr and Michele Burton. https://www.copperknob.co.uk/stepsheets/4R3V9H4/true-love-two-step

I love this story about GRAND OLE OPRY DANCER and WSM DJ Marcia Campbell, and I wanted to share it. I have had the incredible privilege of being interviewed on WSM radio live from her former studios in the Opryland Hotel three different times by her, once by myself, once with Kenny Foster, and once with my producer, Randy Gardner. She is a legendary Grand Ole Opry clogging dancer, a fabulous DJ and wonderful person. This story about her warmed my heart and I hope it warms yours too. She's a national treasure!

Marcia Campbell celebrates 40 years as part of the Grand Ole Opry Square Dancers Marcia Campbell became a square dancer on the Grand Ole Opry when she was only 12. She grew up around legends like Roy Acuff, Minnie Pearl, and Bill Monroe.
