Gena Roberts - Country Night Live

GENA ROBERTS – BIOGRAPHY
Gena Roberts comes from a musical family. Her mother, father and all four brothers were always playing and singing together from the time she can remember.

With early roots in the South on the borders of Arkansas, Texas, Louisiana and Oklahoma she is truly a Southern Girl.

Early in life she sang in church and at church functions on a weekly basis, givin gher a memorized catalog of hundreds of standard and classic hymns and other special songs.

In school Gena studied music and participated in the High School band as aflutist and as a featured vocal performer in the school choir.

Gena started being told as a teenager that she sounded a lot like Country Singer, Connie Smith, but was not familiar with her. A Friend gave Gena a recording of Connie's and after listening she smiled and said, “You know, everybody sounds like someone, but ultimately, you are who you are, your own person with your individual sound.”

Ultimately Gena started to receive invitations to perform as a soloist and background singer for recordings and at various functions and musical productions locally and in the 4 states region. Gena became a regular on Music Country USA in
Broken Bow, Oklahoma and then moved to the Oaklawn Opry in Texarkana, Texas.

Gena was signed to a personal management contract in April 2010 with Texas Universal Management and a booking contract with TeraJay Entertainment that same month. Gena is expected to start recording her first album in September of this year.

She is available for appearances at fairs and festivals as well as Opry's and other venues. You can call Bennye St. Claire at TeraJay entertainment at (903) 223-6671 for available dates. rendezvous
