Kathy Mattea to perform in Redding Grammy winning singer-songwriter Kathy Mattea charmed the audience during her last appearance in Redding, and she���s returning to do it again as Jefferson Public Radio and the Cascade Theatre present Kathy Mattea at Redding���s gloriously restored Cascade Theatre at 7:30 p.m. on Sunday, April 14. Kathy Mattea has been Female Vocalist of the Year twice by the Country Music Association and earned two Grammy Awards, but she���s a whole lot more than country. Mattea came of age musically in Nashville, rising to the top of the charts with hits like Love at the Five and Dime and 18 Wheels and a Dozen Roses. But Mattea���s creative spirit has led her to explore other musical territories and incorporate other genres into her music. Recent recordings have intertwined Celtic, Gospel and Bluegrass influences with the folk and acoustic music that has always served as her artistic anchor. Besides her wide ranging musical expression, Mattea is also known for her engaging personality and genuine connection with audiences. The Chicago Tribune says Mattea "has both a great voice and an aura that is likeably magnetic." Her show is sure to leave the audience with warm hearts and smiling faces when she returns to the Cascade Theatre for her second performance in the venue since the theatre���s restoration. Tickets are $19-39 and are available at the Cascade Theatre Box Office at 1733 Market St. in Redding, by phone at (530) 243-8877 or directly through the Cascade Theatre website at www.cascadetheatre.org.
