Rhonda Vincent and NASCAR

Rhonda Vincent with Carl EdwardsRhonda Vincent is the All American Bluegrass Girl and this last weekend she helped bring bluegrass music to the all American sport, NASCAR racing. Saturday, July 28, 2007, at O’Reilly Raceway Park in Indianapolis, IN, Rhonda treated the NASCAR fans to a one hour pre-race concert that culminated with her singing the National Anthem to begin the race.

Rhonda singing the National Anthem at the Kroger 200That race was the Kroger 200, originally broadcast on ESPN2. The race will be rebroadcast on August 2, at 12 Noon, EST. The only part of Rhonda’s performance that will be preserved with the rebroadcast is her singing of the National Anthem.

Rhonda, and her band The Rage, will again be joining NASCAR in Bristol, TN August 23 when they will perform for the Food City Family Race Night.
