The Opera Cowgirls are an alt-country band where grand opera meets the grand ole opry. Founded by Caitlin McKechney (mezzo-soprano/guitar/banjolele), the group also includes Sarah Beckham-Turner (soprano/cello), Maria Maxfield (soprano/dulcimer/egg shaker or tambourine), Jessica Sandidge (soprano/mandolin/rival egg shaker or tambourine) and Mila Henry (not a soprano/mini-keyboards/percussion). By blending the greatest operatic hits with some country flavor, the Cowgirls have proven that they can truly cover Puccini to Parton.
They have performed at venues ranging from dive bars to cabaret halls, including the New York-based BAM Lepercq Space, Pete’s Candy Store, Le Poisson Rouge and The Slipper Room, and trips to Avaloch Farm Music Institute (NH), Dr Petersburg Opera (FL), Cedar Rapids Opera Theatre (IA), Delaware Valley Opera (NY), Magic City Opera (FL), NightBlue Theater (IL), Opera North (NH), Painted Sky Opera (OK), the San Francisco Ballet (CA), and West Texas A&M University (TX). Digital albums include Pearlsnaps and Pearls and A Very Merry Cowgirl Christmas, available online through all major music platforms. OperaCowgirls.com
