Chloe Channell Headlines FFA Blue Jacket Jamboree (With Photo Galleries)

March 9, 2014

The annual Blue Jacket Jamboree was held Saturday at Northview High School to benefit the school’s FFA program.

The day’s entertainment included 12-year old Chloe Channell of America’s Got Talent fame, The Dusty Sanderson Band and more.

The Blue Jacket Jamboree also included arts and crafts, plenty of food, a car show, activities and games for the kids and other family-friendly activities.

America fell in love with Chloe Channell last fall on NBC’s “America’s Got Talent” when she sang the Carrie Underwood cover song “All American Girl” and made it all the way to quarterfinals at Radio City Music Hall in New York City. She performed with the Sawmill Band at the Farmer’s Opry in Chumuckla, since she was seven and has opened for country stars like Tracy Bird, Rodney Adkins, Little Big Town and Craig Morgan. This past Christmas, she was on stage with Billy Dean in the Kenny Rogers Production of “The Toy Shoppe” in Branson, Missouri.

Pensacola native Dusty Sanderson has been playing guitar since he was 10-years old and singing on stage since he turned 14. He has written over 75 songs and recently recorded his first four song album at Quad Studios in Nashville with Grammy nominated producer Dave Moody on the Lamon Records label. His first music video for the title track “Chuggin’ Along” was shot in January in McDavid.

The Blue Jacket Jamboree was sponsored in part by NorthEscambia.com. All proceeds from the event benefited the Northview High School FFA and FFA Scholarship Fund.
