Hot Bott Concert in August – Get Your Tickets Now!

Here is a rare opportunity to see the lovely and talented Linda Regan Bott in concert!  You may recognize her from Freefire Radio – the morning radio program she co-hosts with husband Carl Bott on KQMS, 1400.  You might not know that she performed for 8 years with Dean Martin!  Here’s an excerpt from her bio at Freefire’s Website: Linda Bott, a veteran performer who’s career has spanned over 30 years in show business and has performed around the world with her musical and theatre roles. These performances included an eight year stint as one of the Dean Martin’s Golddiggers. Linda has performed with many of the top performers of our time to include Frank Sinatra, Bob Hope and Wayne Newton. She has also recorded three albums and has numerous television appearances.|

She is an incredible local talent and will be recording a CD Live at a concert on August 15th at the Cascade Theater called “Martinis With Santa.”  The Christmas songs will all be mixed for a Christmas album then be sent on a CD as a “gift from the Northstate” to the troops in Afghanistan.  Tickets go on sale late May.. Hope you can make it!
