Melinda and The Layton Hollow Gals

What Folks are Saying
“Music shows are always popular at the Ozark County Historium, but some are just more fun than others. The Layton Hollow Gals, who showcased songs written by the late Johnny Mullins in a performance last week, had all the ingredients for the perfect event. They are talented, engaging, informative, attractive — a good recipe that was cooked up just right! Lead singer, Melinda Mullins, is the daughter of Johnny Mullins, and her tribute to him is lovingly and beautifully rendered, with personal anecdotes and memories that bring him back to life. The sweet harmony between Mullins and her partner, Betsey Mae, just makes one smile. Here’s hoping they’ll come back for another performance someday — we’ll always make them welcome!”–

“Johnny Mullins’ love and talent shine brightly as his daughter Melinda and the Layton Hollow Gals pay sweet tribute to him through a very enjoyable performance of his songs. I’d highly recommend an evening spent listening to the Layton Hollow Gals” —

“There is something for everyone in the songs of the Johnny Mullins Collection. From folk, bluegrass and gospel, to good ol’ country music with a boost of rock-a-billy. The stories that Johnny Mullins shares through his songs ignite joy, laughter, heartache, personal memories of home, loved ones, a father’s advice; and when they are delivered by the grace and vocal sweetness of Johnny’s daughter, Melinda Mullins, the world is connected one song at a time to the purity of all that is good in Ozark music. An evening shared with the spirit of Johnny Mullins brought to life by Melinda Mullins is not one that is soon forgotten.” —
