Chanteuse Country US née le 28
Juin 1954 à Knoxville (Tennessee).
Ava Barber
became a professional singer at age ten and joined the cast of the Bonnie Lou
and Buster syndicated TV show at age 15. She proved popular and began appearing
at local clubs and barn dances, and also released her first single, "Atlanta."
At her mother's urging, Barber wrote to Lawrence Welk and wound up auditioning
several months later in a tent with a piano at a golf tournament the bandleader
was playing in. She appeared regularly on his show from 1974 to 1982, also
touring with him. Barber signed to Ranwood Records in 1976 and scored seven
country hits between 1977 and 1981, the most successful of which was "Bucket to
the South" (#14) in 1978. She also toured extensively on the U.S. and Canada
county fair and concert circuit. After Welk's show ended, she sometimes toured
with former colleague Dick Dale. In 1990,
Barber and Dale opened the Rainbow Music
Theater in Pigeon Forge.
