Van Wert Live has announced America’s Got Talent sensation Chapel Hart will make a stop at the Niswonger Performing Arts Center on their first headlining Glory Days Tour at 7:31 p.m. Friday, March 31.

Sisters Danica and Devynn Hart and cousin Trea Swindle won the hearts of America’s Got Talent viewers earlier this year but have been steadily making their mark on country music for years. Over the past few months, the Poplarville, Mississippi natives have earned praise from greats like Dolly Parton and Tanya Tucker. Their talents also drew the attention of Darius Rucker, who recruited them for the stellar collaboration, “Ol’ Church Hymn.”

As they continue to ride this much-deserved wave of success, Chapel Hart has plotted an extensive tour that kicks off January 26 in Wichita, Kansas, and continues across the U.S. through mid-July, including the March 31 performance in Van Wert.

The trek marks a significant milestone for the hard-working trio, who have been performing together since 2014.

“It feels really amazing to be going out on our first-ever headlining tour,” Devynn Hart explained. “God has truly had his hands on us and our careers. We are forever grateful for every opportunity.”

In 2021 Chapel Hart was inducted into CMT’s Next Women of Country, the institution that has been known to help up-and-coming female country artists such as Kelsea Ballerini, Ashley McBride, and Gabby Barrett, just to name a few.

This Mississippi trio’s music has reached fans around the globe earning them the title of “International Group of the Year” as well as “International Song of the Year” for the single “You Can Have Him Jolene” in Scotland. They were also nominated in multiple categories by the British CMAs including “Group of the Year” and “Album of the Year” for their sophomore release “The Girls Are Back In Town”.

There is nothing quite like a Chapel Hart experience. The trio has a natural ability to make people join together in song and dance in their live performances. They often note music’s incredible power to unite people of all nationalities, religions, and walks of life. The ladies will often treat the audience to three-part harmony A Capella arrangements that range from energetic and playful to emotional and chilling.
