Newberry Opera House to Host Steel Magnolia | Arts & Culture

There is a very cool moment, preserved for posterity in TV syndication, when Joshua Scott Jones and Meghan Linsey, the duo known as Steel Magnolia, make the connection that changes their lives. In the year since winning the show, Steel Magnolia has gone on to win over many more fans. Their bracing take of Keep On Lovin' You climbed to No. 5 on the Billboard Country Charts leading the way for other hits such as: Just By Being You (Halo and Wings) and Edge of Goodbye. Experience the magic that is Steel Magnolia at the Newberry Opera House on Saturday, January 26, 2013.

Even before the release of their debut album, Steel Magnolia snagged nine major industry award nominations, including: Vocal Duo of the Year and Top New Vocal Duo of the Year by the Academy of Country Music in both 2010 and 2011, Top Vocal Duo by the The Country Music Association in 2010, Best Country Music Video By A New Duo by Country Music Television and a 2012 ACM Award for Vocal Duo of the Year. Their second single, Just By Being You (Halo and Wings), became their second Top 30 hit and has been downloaded more than a million times and landed in the major motion picture, “Valentine’s Day.” Their third single Last Night Again reached No. 24 on the country charts. Their self-titled album “Steel Magnolia”was released in January 2011 and it debuted in the Top 10 of the pop and country album charts.
