For those of you
who haven't seen Trilly perform, you're in for a treat....this is a
Branson style show.
She sings
material going all the way back to the roaring 20's to current country,
and plays 5 instruments onstage, not to mention the infamous doubleneck
and a bedpan guitar made by Gibson
Guitar company
for her. She has entertained
from one end of the country to the other, making her mark in Nashville
for 15 years at Printers Alley's Captain's Table, setting a record for
longest club act in Nashville.
Also, while in Nashville, Trilly
appeared on the TV show Hee
Haw (clicking this link will take you to tvguide.com showing who
was on this episode), Nashville Now with Ralph Emery and Wrap
Around Nashville. She has also performed with Mickey
Finn's Revue in Las Vegas and throughout Nevada for another 10 years.
Trilly has "been around" and she has opened and worked with the best, for instance.......
Frank Sinatra Jr., Kenny Rogers, Tammy Wynette, Del Reeves, Freddie Hart, Burl Ives, Bobby Bare, C.W. McCall (Convoy), Cal Smith, The Forrester Sisters, Margo Smith, Boots Randolph, Dave & Sugar, Kitty Wells and whole lot of road miles from Nashville to Las Vegas and back again.
You won't believe what two people can do onstage...........
Trilly, as always is still doing her same act, now with a new twist!!!!

Steve Nelson, her "new" partner, was in her band and played guitar and
drums for
Trilly in her show on the road and in Nashville for a lot of these
venues back in the '70s.
Steve's began playing music at the age of 3. He plays guitar,
bass, drums, pedal steel, mandolin, banjo, keyboards....and plays a lot
of these instruments in the show. His expertise in using a MIDI
guitar synth to create onstage the sounds of saxes, pianos, and much
more, adds the feeling of a full band. He also uses onstage an
Digitech Vocalist VHM5 to recreate the sound of 3 part harmonies in the
show, and is admittedly a "music geek", always looking for new hi tech
tools to make a fuller sound for a smaller number of people on stage.
This
photo below is from Trilly's Lake
Tahoe appearance
at Harrah's Stateline Casino appearance in 1976.
She did shows in the Cabaret Room opposite Frank Sinatra, Jr., Kenny Rogers,
The Mob, The Kenny Davis Road Show and B.B. King during her stay there
Kenny Davis was kind enough to send the one photo on the right below.....look at the headliner!!!!
