WESTERN AMERICANA / ROOTS MUSIC
Almeda Bradshaw is one of Montana’s talented Western singer songwriters. Her love and appreciation for the western way of life is expressed in heartfelt songs that give voice to the westerner: cowboys, cowgirls, ranchers, farmers and more. A lifetime of writing and playing stringed instruments places her work above the ordinary. Clear vocals, a compelling stage presence and accomplished musicianship guarantee Almeda to be an audience favorite.

I'm very honored to have my original song
"PARKER EYES OF BLUE"
nominated by the
WESTERN WRITERS of AMERICA
for
2015 BEST WESTERN SONG.

"I've been particularly moved by "Parker Eyes of Blue," nominated for a Spur Award by
the Western Writers of America, Inc.  Its worth the investment of the whole CD to hear
it - as its length may exclude it from airplay - although it's air worthy!!
Captivating, engaging, thought provoking, haunting and educational -
it has made me want to explore her story more."
