Stacey Board will be playing the Downtown Farmers Market!
Singer, songwriter, and guitarist Stacey Board was born in Decatur, AL. She began singing as a small child, and is mostly self-taught, though she did take some voice lessons and a little classical guitar training. Board wrote her first song when she was a teenager. Around that same time, when she was about 16, a dare to sing on the sidewalk outside of a local radio station — which she jokingly counts as her debut public appearance — landed her a membership in her first band.
