Lori Baker
"The Boss"

Lori's first stage appearance ocurred over 20 years ago, singing Harper Valley PTA, by Jeannie C. Riley.  Lori says that until that time she had no real aspirations toward singing in public, but once she was bitten by the performing bug, there was no holding her back.

Born in Manistee, Michigan, Lori is the entertainer of the group.  She gets everyone involved in the show, serenading members of the audience or joining the dancers out on the floor.  Her vocal range and musical style has been compared to Dolly Parton, Loretta Lynn, and Patsy Cline.

Lori has received numerous awards for her performing ability, including The Country Music Association of Michigan's Most Promising Female Vocalist for 1987, Michigan Country Music Pioneer Museum & Association's Female Singer of the Year in 1994, as well as a nomination in the same year as that group's Entertainer of the Year.
