A local singer-songwriter says getting the opportunity to open for country megastar Shania Twain this weekend is a dream come true.

Country artist Mallory Johnson is one of the opening acts on Friday night, kicking off a set of three shows at the Churchill Park Music Festival.

Johnson says she has looked up to Twain ever since she was a little girl.

She recalls singing along to Twain’s music in the car as a child.

“I grew up singing Shania Twain along with Dolly Parton so it’s definitely a pinch me moment.”
