Talking Rock Ranch welcomes award-winning, western and folk singer-songwriter Juni Fisher for a private engagement Saturday, March 19.
Recipient of the 2009 Western Music Association Female Performer of the Year and Album of the Year awards, Juni is known for outstanding songwriting, heart-wrenching vocals and exceptional guitar picking. Fisher’s accolades also include the first female to receive the Western Music Association’s Songwriter of the Year Award (2008) and the first female to receive the Western Heritage Wrangler Award for Traditional Western Album from the National Cowboy & Western Heritage Museum.
Fisher recorded her first Western release, “Tumbleweed Letters,” in late 1999. It was five long years before Gary Brown, director of the Monterey Cowboy Poetry and Music Festival, sought her out to perform at the 2004 festival. This performance launched Juni’s professional music career introducing her to other promoters and artists. That same year she released her second album, “Sideshow Romance.” In 2006 she released her third album “Cowgirlography” including the 2007 WMA Song of the Year “I Hope She'll Love Me,” featuring Sons of the San Joaquin's Joe Hannah. In 2008, she followed it up with the ambitious "Gone For Colorado," an historical album about her great grandfather's early life as a young cowhand. The album cemented Fisher's place among the finest songwriters of Western music.
