Country singer Gracee Shriver to perform at Stonewall Resort on Mar. 4

Weston, W.Va. – Following in the footsteps of the likes of Carrie Underwood and Reba McEntire as a country singer with Oklahoma roots, Nashville artist Gracee Shriver will perform at Stonewall Resort on Saturday, March 4.

“Gracee Shriver is one of Music City’s hottest rising acts and we are thrilled to have her performing at Stonewall Resort,” said Andre’ D’Amour, resort general manager. “I’d encourage those interested to get their tickets quickly as the show is sure to sell out.”

A contestant on Season 17 of NBC’s hit television show, “The Voice” (and a member of Blake Shelton’s team), Shriver placed in the top 16. Her latest song, “Alone Some”, has been featured on Spotify’s ‘Women of Country’ playlist. In 2021 and 2022, she was chosen by CMT for the prestigious Belmont University Country Showcase. And Noel Bisesti, one of Nashville’s top percussionists, will accompany Shriver during the performance.

The concert will take place at 8pm in the Stonewall Ballroom. The first 100 tickets sold include one complimentary signature cocktail in TJ Muskies after the show ends. Individual tickets to the show are available for $40 per person (to include the drink ticket) or there is a $30 Early Bird ticket (does not include a post-event drink ticket). Overnight packages, to include a ticket to the performance, are available. To purchase individual tickets, click here.
