The Sugarland singer, who will make her Great White Way debut in Chicago as Roxie Hart beginning February 2, is next in line to grab a camera and take us backstage. Be on the lookout for Hart & Soul: Backstage at Chicago with Jennifer Nettles.
The country superstar will offer a glimpse of life at the Ambassador Theatre, including the rehearsal process leading up to her first Broadway bow. Expect plenty of Fosse choreography, cameos from co-stars (including fellow newcomers Carly Hughes and John Dossett) and much more.
Nettles, along with Kristian Bush and Kristen Hall, formed the band Sugarland in 2003 and were nominated for a Best New Artist Grammy Award in 2006. She and Bush two took home two Grammys in 2009 for their single, “Stay.” Nettles also received a Grammy for her collaboration with Bon Jovi.
