Geri O'Brien is a 26 year old bundle of energy from Gaspe, Quebec., who has been setting country music fans on their ear all around the country. Although Geri can play guitar, she accompanies herself instead with a snare drum, and the way she handles the drum along with singing a spectacular song has made her a prime attraction with Dusty King's Country Cats, the group with whom she appears.

Geri's TV career began in Corwall in 1960, followed a stint on Sherbrooke's Channel 7 -- CHLT-TV. This led to a contract with Dusty King's group and appearances around Canada and the U.S.A. Geri's favorite country singers are Jean Sheppard, and in this her first record album she's chosen a dozen of her own special favorites. It's a listening package that will provide a mighty enjoyable sample of a talented new singer.
