Grizzly Hall’s magic will soon sparkle once again when the reimagined Country Bear Musical Jamboree takes to the stage beginning July 17. The fan-favorite band of bears will return to the spotlight with the star quality and big personalities that have had fans stompin’ and singin’ along for more than 50 years. The new show will feature fresh twangin’ interpretations of treasured Disney songs in different genres of country music including bluegrass, pop-country, Americana, rockabilly and more.
Paying homage to the musical revues of Nashville, Walt Disney Imagineering worked with some of the best in country music, including country legend and 10-time Country Music Awards “Musician of the Year” Mac McAnally. For the voice of the beloved bear, Trixie St. Claire, country singer Emily Ann Roberts added her twangy vocals to “Try Everything” from Walt Disney Animation Studios’ “Zootopia.” Singer-songwriter Allison Russel and musician ChrisThile shared their talents for Wendell and Teddi Barra’s sweet rendition of “A Whole New World.” On top of debuting an all-new setlist, the bears will don some new threads worthy of the epic comeback they are making. This hoedown will leave guests hummin’ and twirlin’ their way through Frontierland all day long.
