Frankie Ballard Entertains at the Taste of Country Christmas Tour in Texarkana

Frankie Ballard came onto the Shooter's stage dressed in a flashy, snazzy, blue jacket that matched his energy Saturday night and he didn't stop performing until the crowd was spent. The "Young and Crazy" singer immediately got everyone on their feet and set the tone for the evening. 

One thing was clear. Frankie came to party.

The "Helluva Life" singer performed several songs from his current album, Sunshine and Whiskey, including "Young and Crazy," "Tell Me You Get Lonely," and "It Don't Take Much" among others. He also drew from ghosts of country past and sang Johnny Cash's "A Boy Named Sue."

But prior to Frankie coming on stage, country newcomer Matt Gary warmed up the crowd with a few songs from his back pocket. "It's On You" is Gary's calling card right now and it won't be long before this soon-to-be hitmaker makes an even bigger name for himself.
