Jo Dee Messina has recently been traveling across the country performing show-stopping concerts. She's been around the Sioux Empire, including during the Yankton Riverboat Days in August of 2021. I was lucky enough to see her perform. Jo Dee's voice and energy made her a huge force in Yankton! This show at the Sioux Empire Fair will be no different.
