WEST SILOAM SPRINGS, Okla. — Cherokee Casino & Hotel West Siloam Springs will welcome rising country star Emily Ann Roberts at 8 p.m. Thursday, Dec. 3, at the Qualla Ballroom inside the casino.
A truly singular voice in country music, Roberts is making her mark with warm, powerful vocals, heartfelt songwriting and a commitment to the genre’s traditional roots. The Knoxville, Tennessee, native has earned New Artist nominations from the Academy of Country Music and the Country Music Association, along with recognition on Opry NextStage and MusicRow’s Next Big Thing Class of 2026.
With nearly 200 million global streams, Roberts has built a growing fan base through her authentic sound and down-to-earth personality, including her popular “Yeehaw Meemaw” persona. Her music pairs timeless country storytelling with rich instrumentation and memorable melodies.
“Thread,” her latest release, is a five-song EP that builds on the success of her 2023 debut album, “Can’t Hide Country.” The project explores deeper emotional themes while maintaining the traditional country influences and vibrant spirit that have defined her music.
Signed to RECORDS Nashville/Sony Music Nashville, Roberts has continued to expand her reach through touring, including performances alongside country stars Cody Johnson and Thomas Rhett. She is also joining Johnson on his U.K. and European tour this fall before launching her own U.S. headline tour in 2027.
