2024 Milk River Gospel Jamboree Announces Artists for June 28-30

After a warm debut welcome at the Milk River Gospel Jamboree last year is Sherry Anne, a Billboard-charting artist, award-winning songwriter, and author Sherry Anne is returning for the June 28-30, 2024 Milk River Gospel Jamboree in Malta, Montana, as part of her 2024 “Praise Hymn” tour. The Milk River Gospel Jamboree features three days of Gospel, Country Gospel, and Bluegrass music by singers and groups from the U.S. and Canada.

Sherry Anne has recently returned from Louisiana where she filmed music videos for songs on her latest music album “Hymns” at the Shreveport Municipal Auditorium where Elvis made his singing debut and at the “Steel Magnolias House” in Natchitoches where the movie of the same name was filmed.

Born partially deaf and with a speech impairment, today Sherry Anne sings and speaks with an elegant voice to share her inspirational and relatable story of overcoming obstacles and challenges in life to help anyone facing such struggles. Audiences are encouraged by her faith-filled music and message of hope. Sherry Anne has shared her music on stages at The Ark Encounter, Gaither Family Fest, and the 2023 Gaither Homecoming in Hershey, Pennsylvania.
