Wanda Jackson Announces Extensive U.S. Tour

Wanda Jackson, who is credited with being the first woman to ever record a rock and roll song—”Let’s Have a Party” in 1958—was convinced by her friend Elvis Presley to cross over from country to rock and rockabilly music. A member of the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, she is now known around the globe as “The Queen of Rock” and “The First Lady of Rockabilly.” Jackson hits the road for her second nationwide tour in support of her Nonesuch/Third Man debut, The Party Ain’t Over, which was produced by her friend Jack White.
