Second Show Added For Mandy Barnett At Eisemann Center Eisemann Center Presents Mandy Barnett in Sweet Dreams: The Music of Patsy Cline at the Eisemann Center, 2351 Performance Drive in Richardson, Texas on Thursday, March 22 & Friday, March 23, 2018 at 7:30 pm in the Bank of America Theatre. A singer since the age of five, Mandy Barnett is a world-class vocalist whose style is deeply rooted in the classic country and pop crooning of the all-time great singers. The Crossville, Tennessee native first garnered national attention as a teenager, earning rave reviews for her portrayal of the legendary Patsy Cline in the theatrical production Always...Patsy Cline at Nashville's famed Ryman Auditorium, and appearing in this title role on the original cast album. Barnett's Sweet Dreams album likewise salutes Cline.

Barnett has since built on that stage success considerably, carving out a prolific recording career with multiple critically acclaimed albums and showcasing her one-of-a-kind vocal talent on stages across the country and around the globe - from international music festivals to the Grand Ole Opry. She released her debut album Mandy Barnett following the triumphant first run of Always...Patsy Cline, and the follow-up record, I've Got a Right to Cry, was produced by Nashville Sound pioneer Owen Bradley (producer of Loretta Lynn, Patsy Cline, and Brenda Lee), his final contribution to the music community before his death. I've Got a Right to Cry was named the top country album in the year of its release by Rolling Stone, and similar stellar reviews appeared in People, Newsweek, and other national magazines and newspapers. 2018 will bring a new Barnett album, an eclectic mix of Americana and roots music.

Guitarist Andy Reiss, originally from San Francisco, moved to Nashville in 1981 and immediately became a mainstay of the Nashville studio scene. He has toured and recorded with Mandy Barnett for many years and is a member of the award-winning Western Swing group The Time Jumpers (with Vince Gill) seen at the Eisemann Center in 2015.

Pianist and Nashville native Jason Coleman comes by his instrument naturally. The grandson of Country Music Hall of Fame member pianist Floyd Cramer, Coleman grew up performing with Cramer at his concerts and on television.

Bassist Zeb Briskovich, from Saint Louis, began his musical career at age 10, playing professionally with his mother's country band. In addition to Mandy Barnett, Briskovich has worked with musicians such as Bucky Pizzarelli, John Pizzarelli, Clark Terry, and Ann Hampton Calloway.
