Dell Rapids native to perform at Levitt at the Falls
SIOUX FALLS, S.D. (KELO) – A country artist from Dell Rapids is kicking off the first Thursday performance at Levitt at the Falls this season.
Since she was 10 years old, Julie Eddy has been performing anywhere and everywhere.
'I was always in choir and things like that. And then when I turned 21, I started singing in bars. Any bar that would take me, I was basically begging for gigs,' Eddy said.

Eddy gradually started to play on bigger stages and in 2019 first performed at the Levitt.'I was an opener in 2019, the very first season. So this is my first time headlining and I'm very excited,' Eddy said.
Eddy describes her music as a mix between Miranda Lambert and Gretchen Wilson. As tonight marks her first time back at Levitt at the Falls.
'It's really beautiful, full circle to feel like it doesn't seem like that long ago I was a little girl coming to all of these shows. And now to be able to stand on the stage and share music that really was written about my life and came from my heart, is a dream come true,' Eddy said.
As Eddy says, people can expect new songs tonight from her latest record Playing House and some unreleased tunes.
'It's going to be fun and lively, and I want people to get up and dance and have a good time,' Eddy said.
'So a full weekend of country-inspired music, but all different styles of country. So it'll be a lot of fun,' Levitt at The Falls CEO, Nancy Halverson.
Tonight's concert starts at 7 p.m. at the Levitt. Eddy will have a meet and greet after the show near the merchandise booth.
June 28 Eddy will also perform during this year's Quarry Days in Dell Rapids.
