Earlier this year, they shared a stage with country superstar
Vince Gill. This time, the Cherokee National Youth Choir is ready
to perform with legends.
Opening for the Oak Ridge Boys on Thursday at The Joint inside
Hard Rock Hotel & Casino Tulsa, the choir will perform “The
Star Spangled Banner” and “Lean on Me.” The groups will share the
stage for an encore of “Elvira.”
On Jan. 15, in front of a sold-out crowd at The Joint, the youth
choir joined Gill in a rendition of “Go Rest High on That
Mountain.”
“It is a great leadership exercise when our youth get the
opportunity to perform on stage with such well-known talent,
especially when our youth are performing in Cherokee,” Chad Smith,
principal chief of the Cherokee Nation, said in a statement. “This
is another opportunity for our youth choir to see the production
and witness a performance of such great magnitude.”
