Rising Star Callie McCullough takes to the Fergus Grand Theatre Stage

CENTRE WELLINGTON – A modern singer/songwriter inspired by timeless classics, Callie McCullough has chased her unique muse for years, making Contemporary Roots music that nods to the legends who came before her. It’s a sound anchored in honest storytelling and McCullough’s angelic voice, whose Alison Krauss-worthy tone and Dolly Parton-sized beauty stand in contrast to her dry humor and larger-than-life personality. The Stratford-born McCullough drops by the Fergus Grand Theatre as part of her 2025 Southern Ontario tour on Saturday, March 22^nd.

With high praise from American Songwriter and Billboard Callie has made an impact in the music scene with her vulnerable vocals, breathtaking lyrics, and fusion of, Folk Celtic, Bluegrass and Traditional Country Influences. With the vocal chops of an established pro, quick-witted humor and the fighting spirit of an independent musician, she creates a musical tapestry that effortlessly captures classic and rootsy nostalgia, coupled with her own contemporary twists, sharp song writing, and the expressive singing of an artist who has truly found her voice.

“She certainly has!” says Theatre Coordinator Eric Goudie. “Callie’s songs sound just like the music I grew up listening to in the farm truck on the way to do the chores. She has a vibe, a story, and most of all a voice that wouldn’t feel out of place alongside any of the great women of classic country.”

McCullough’s debut album, After Midnight, featuring first-class picking from members of the GRAMMY-winning bluegrass band Union Station and western-swing super-group The Time Jumpers —quickly put her on the map, garnering a Canadian Country Music Association Nomination for Alternative Country Album of the Year, and three CMAO Nominations for: Roots Artist of the Year, Rising Star and Songwriters of the Year.

Now teamed up with Grammy Nominated Producer Dave Brainard (Brandy Clark, Jamey Johnson) in this next round of music McCullough showcases a new side of her artistry combining grassy textures, soaring melodies, killer harmonies, loose grooves, and catchy hooks into an infectious and downright refreshing sound.

Tickets for all shows are now on sale, and are available in the box office, by phone at 519-787-1981, or online at www.fergusgrandtheatre.ca.
