Castle Village Presents: Opera Cowgirls
The Opera Cowgirls are an alt-country band where grand opera meets the grand ole opry.
Founded by Caitlin McKechney (mezzo-soprano/guitar/banjolele) after she was asked to open for a rock show at a local bar, the group also includes Sarah Beckham-Turner (soprano/cello), Maria Maxfield (soprano/egg shaker/tambourine), Jessica Sandidge (soprano/mandolin/rival egg shaker/tambourine) and Mila Henry (soprano sometimes/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. The Cowgirls have performed at venues ranging from dive bars to cabaret halls and beach bandshells to floating ferries, including the New York-based BAM Lepercq Space, Green Room 42, LIC Bar, Parkside Lounge, Pete’s Candy Store, Le Poisson Rouge and The Slipper Room, and regionally at Avaloch Farm Music Institute (NH), Cedar Rapids Opera Theatre (IA), Delaware Valley Opera (NY), Hopewell Valley Vineyards (NJ), Magic City Opera (FL), Mr. Smalls Funhouse (PA), NightBlue Theater (IL), Opera North (NH), Painted Sky Opera (OK), Pensacola Opera (FL), Sandhills Repertory Theatre (NC), San Francisco Ballet (CA), St. Pete Opera (FL) and West Texas A&M University (TX). They were also presented by Pittsburgh Opera as part of the opening celebrations for the 2023 OPERA America Conference.
