Gena Roberts comes from a musical family. Her mother, father and all four brothers were always playing and singing together from the time she can remember.With early roots in the South on the borders of Arkansas, Texas, Louisiana and Oklahoma she is truly a Southern Girl. Early in life she sang in church and at church functions on a weekly basis, giving her a memorized catalog of hundreds of standard and classic hymns and other special songs. In school Gena studied music and participated in the High School band as a flutist and as a featured vocal performer in the school choir. Gena started being told as a teenager that she sounded a lot like Country Singer, Connie Smith, but was not familiar with her. A Friend gave Gena a recording of Connie's and after listening she smiled and said, You know, everybody sounds like someone, but ultimately, you are who you are, your own person with your individual sound. Ultimately Gena started to receive invitations to perform as a soloist and background singer for recordings and at various functions and musical productions locally and in the 4 states region. Gena became a regular on Music Country USA in Broken Bow, Oklahoma and then moved to the Oaklawn Opry in Texarkana, Texas. Gena was signed to a personal management contract in April 2010 with Texas Universal Management and a booking contract with TeraJay Entertainment that same month. Gena's New Album, "Shuffle back to Me" was officially released on November 27th at the Oaklawn Opry in Texarkana, Texas. The Album "Shuffle Back To Me" contains her #1 hit "Shuffle Back To Me" and other songs written by Chuck Cusimano.Gena has continually appeared on Benefits in the area and across the state of Texas. Recently Gena has opened for such traditional country stars as Jo-El Sonnier and Kenny Serrat.
