About Barbara Fairchild:
Known for her signature hit, "Teddy Bear Song," Barbara Fairchild is a Grammy Award nominated and Christian Music Hall of Fame entertainer. Fairchild began singing at the age of five, now performing to crowds for over six decades. Barbara Fairchild's impact on country music began when producer Billy Sherrill, known for his association with Tammy Wynette and George Jones, signed her to a record deal with Columbia Records in 1969. That union resulted in her first Country Top 40 hit with “A Girl Who’ll Satisfy Her Man” in 1970. This was followed by four more songs to enter the Top 40 between 1970 and 1972, the most successful being “Thanks For The Mem’ries” and “Love’s Old Song”. The following year, in March of 1973, “Teddy Bear Song” ascended to the top of the Billboard Hot Country Songs chart, produced by Jerry Crutchfield. The song went on to become a crossover hit and rising to No. 32 on the mainstream Billboard Hot 100 chart and No. 1 on the Canadian Country charts, garnering a Grammy nomination for Best Country Vocal Performance by a Female in 1974 . “Kid Stuff” and a string of hits continued through the 1970s. In total, Barbara Fairchild has charted thirty-seven singles in addition to recording numerous albums. As a member of The Grand Ladies, her ministry and her touring shows, Barbara's sincere love for people and her bubbly personality bring light to why the phrase, "to see her is to love her" best defines Barbara Fairchild. Her honors also include induction into her home state hall of fame, The Arkansas Music Hall of Fame.
