Reba announces "Reba's Place"
Constructed in a century old Masonic Temple, "Reba's Place" features two stories of dining space that opens up to a central stage which will regularly host live music performances. The aesthetics of the venue will be heavily influenced by McEntire's western heritage and include a curated collection of memorabilia from her personal archives. Reba's Place is created in partnership with the Choctaw Nation of Oklahoma and the city of Atoka.
"I'm very excited to be opening a place so close to my roots," said McEntire. "The Choctaw Nation and the city of Atoka are wonderful partners, and I can't wait to welcome our first guests to Reba's Place. We are working very hard to create something not only for the local community, but that will also braing in folks from across the country."
The menu will feature tacos, chicken fried steak and pinto beans and corn bread along with versions of many of the dishes most popular in the region and favorites from other areas including Nashville, New Orleans and Mexico.
The main floor also showcases a restored antique bar that is more than 100 years old and offers a broad range of beer, wine and spirits.

While Underwood's release may have been her country-ist album – ever, perhaps – McEntire has strayed far less often from her traditional music roots. With "My Chains Are Gone," McEntire gives us a selection of songs she – like Underwood – grew up singing. Therefore, she knows them all like the back of her hand, the way ...
The beauty of Reba McEntire's albums flows from her way with a phrase, knowing when to modulate to carry us deeper into sadness or joy and when to pull back when she wants us to listen quietly to the lessons of a tear falling. Her songs can also urge us to scamper across the dance floor to twin fiddles, celebrating the exhilarating freedom of the moment or the satisfaction of breakup from a messy relationship. This album follows the end of McEntire's marriage to her manager. ...
Reba McEntire's "My Kind of Christmas," is essentially the same album, with the same title, she released a while back through Cracker Barrel. The project is mostly comprised of the country Wonder Woman's strong singing voice, backed by acoustic piano. The new wrinkle in this expanded edition, though, is a bevy of guest vocalists.
