The Potter Family

Both together and on their own, the members of The Potter Family have been singing and performing since childhood. Matriarch Clover Potter cut her teeth on gospel music in church before adopting the role of entertainer and professional singer, performing in such venues as The Golden Nugget in Las Vegas, and with such artists as
Wanda Jackson. In September 2011, Clover was inducted into the South Dakota Country Music Hall of Fame. Eldest daughter Natana, second daughter WoAbba, and son Orion also grew up singing gospel- the family traveled back and forth across the United States for over eight years, singing together at numerous churches and religious venues. In 2005, Natana and WoAbba formed the duo “The Potter Sisters” and were nominated at the CCMA’s for Duo of the
Year two years running. Orion spent 20 years performing an eclectic blend of music in various groups, and in 2007 was invited three times to sing at the Apollo Theatre in New York City. Orion met his wife Stacey in 2000- she studied dance when she was younger, and then classical music and voice in college. Since she was small she has played piano, and maintained a private piano studio where she
taught students for over 10 years. Together, Orion and Stacey perform with their own unique style of humor and talent.

Today, The Potter Family enjoys performing a variety of vintage, doo-wop, classic country, and modern music from the 30’s to today, and they continue to maintain their roots in gospel music. Their first CD, a collection of gospel bluegrass hymns titled “Sunday Morning,” was released in February of 2012. Their newest venture, The Potter Family Theatre, will open in August of 2013.
