I can see why people like her, but I think her voice is too frickin grating and every time Mercedes Benz comes on Sirius XM I change it. Hate that song.

Fun fact: she was voted ugliest MALE on campus when she attended UT.

Saw her at the Prairieville Pop Festival. She was amazing. So much passion in her voice. I know she was raspy but she tuly sang from the heart. And she had a bottle of Southern Comfort on stage with her the whole show.

And boogied with some guy she pulled up on the stage from the audience.
Lot of groups played that festival. Canned Heat, Iron Butterfly, It's A Beautiful Day, Santana, Country Joe and the Fish, The Youngbloods that I can remember. Seems like maybe the Spiral Staircase and Chicago(Transit Authority) and a few I just can't remember.
