“Christmas Time is here!” That is almost hard to believe, but the year just keeps on trucking by and December is looking to be another great month of shows on The Justin Reed Show!
Dec. 7 – Episode 209: At 9 a.m., the show welcomes legendary singer/songwriter Margie Singleton. At the young age of 82, Margie recently released a new single and video for “Jesus is My Pusher.” Starting her career in the late 1940s, Singleton had a career hit in 1964 with Country Music Hall of Famer Faron Young titled “Keeping Up With the Joneses.” Since then, she has toured as a backup singer with the Jordanaires, and has had songs cut by Charley Pride, Tammy Wynette and Teresa Brewer. Singleton also released the first recording of “Harper Valley P.T.A.” For more information, visit facebook.com/margiesingleton35.
