The concert will be on Saturday, Nov. 22, at the Alhambra Theatre. 

Carter’s 1996 debut album, “Did I Shave My Legs for This?” was certified 5× Multi-Platinum. Next came “Everything’s Gonna Be Alright” (1998), “I’m Just a Girl” (2003), “The Story of My Life” (2005), and “The Chain” (2007).

Hoptown Holiday Hopfest began as a Leadership Christian County project and has continued as a major fundraiser for the Alhambra Theatre, which the county owns and the Pennyroyal Arts Council manages. 

Over the past decade, Hopfest has raised more than $140,000 with headliners such as Wynonna, The SteelDrivers, Marty Stuart, Lodestar, Max Weinberg and Billy Bob Thornton, according to a press release
