Lou Ann Petty from the music video to "Soldier's Wife"

Lou Ann Petty returns to the Bois D'Arc Bash Friday night at 7:30, featuring her new band "Luck of The Draw." The Cumby native has been a regular performer at the annual Commerce festival, and she told Notably Texan that she is thrilled to get back in front of an audience.

Petty has carved a path as one of Northeast Texas' powerhouse voices. She has been in-demand as a singer with theater productions on the Main Stage of Texas A&M University-Commerce, and she has a Brad Davis produced full-length record titled "I'm Falling." Petty was heard Thursday on KETR, speaking about Friday's free live show at The Bash, and getting caught up with host Matt Meinke.

Notably Texan is heard weekdays from Noon - 3pm on KETR.
