Chart-Topper Inducted into the North American Country Music Associations, Int’l Hall of Fame
NASHVILLE, TENN. – Fans of country music songstress Sylvia are in for a treat, as the ACM winner for “Female Vocalist of Year” uses actual film footage from her childhood in the latest video for “All in the Family,” the title inspiration for her latest project, It’s All In The Family. The story is told from the perspective of a grandmother talking with her granddaughter while looking through the old family photo album. As the grandmother gives insights into the people within the photos, a greater picture emerges of the similarity of all families. The song suggests that though families struggle, share joys, and endure losses, the love lives on and is the underpinning of it all.
“Creating the ‘All in the Family’ video was an emotionally stirring experience for me,” says Sylvia. “John Mock and I used video footage from my childhood that features me as a baby along with my parents, grandparents, aunts, uncles, and cousins in the 1950’s. I feel that the song, combined with the old footage as well as poignant public domain photos, brings a powerful depth to the storyline. I think anyone can identify with the message of this song.”

Sylvia, known for signature hits like “Nobody,” recently celebrated her induction into the hall of fame of the North America Country Music Associations, Int’l. The prestigious ceremony took place this past weekend, in scenic Pigeon Forge, Tennessee. The purpose of the organization is “to promote the development of the Country/Gospel Music Industry in each state and country through an International Association.” Sylvia performed some of her biggest hits, reminding the country crowd of the music they once fell in love with. Other 2017 inductees included Gary Morris, Paulette Carlson (voice of Highway 101), Freddie Hart and more.
The chart-topper released her latest project It’s All In the Family in late 2016, which was met with high critical acclaim, securing features in top outlets and publications like The Huffington Post, Southern Living, Roughstock, and many more.
