Here Come The Judds

A Tribute

A polished live tribute to the music, story, and unmistakable mother-daughter sound of The Judds.

Created for theaters, festivals, performing arts centers, and special events, Here Come The Judds stars Nashville performers Victoria Venier as Wynonna Judd and Liz Byler Shea as Naomi Judd in a concert experience built around the songs audiences know, the story they remember, and the chemistry that made The Judds one of country music’s most beloved duos.

With five Grammy Awards, nine CMA Awards, eight ACM Awards, and fourteen No. 1 hits, The Judds left behind one of the most recognizable catalogs in country music. Here Come The Judds brings that catalog to the stage with powerhouse vocals, close harmonies, iconic styling, and storytelling that gives audiences more than a greatest-hits concert.

The result is a show that feels nostalgic, personal, and shared, a celebration where audiences don't simply hear the music they remember; they're invited to sing along, reminisce, and become part of the experience.

For Victoria and Liz, that connection is also personal.

Victoria Venier

Victoria Venier

as Wynonna Judd

Wynonna Judd was one of the artists who inspired Victoria Venier to leave her hometown of Dixon, Illinois, and pursue a life in music in Nashville.

Since then, Victoria has built a distinguished career as a singer, songwriter, performer, and producer. She has shared the stage with legendary artists including Loretta Lynn, Joe Diffie, and Brenda Lee and has appeared as a solo artist on the Grand Ole Opry.

As a songwriter, Victoria’s song “Back to You” was recorded by Take 6 for their Grammy-nominated album The Standard. Her own recording “Pretty Lies” reached No. 1 on the European charts in 2025. She also hosts and produces Dollywood’s annual I Will Always Love You Songwriter Festival and will appear in the television series The Running Father.

Stepping into Wynonna’s music brings Victoria back to one of the voices that first made her believe Nashville was where she belonged.

Liz Byler Shea

as Naomi Judd

Liz Byler Shea began performing professionally in television, film, and music at a young age, appearing in national campaigns for Target and Toyota and singing “Blue Box Blues” for Kraft Macaroni & Cheese.

Her film credits include October Sky, Other Voices, Other Rooms, and John Grisham’s A Painted House. As a musical artist, she has worked onstage with Lee Greenwood, toured with Martina McBride, and appeared as a solo performer on television’s Star Search.

It was there that Liz received a near-perfect score from the judges, including Naomi Judd.

Liz later had the opportunity to spend time with Naomi, whose warmth, wisdom, and perspective left a lasting impression. Years later, portraying Naomi in Here Come The Judds brings Liz’s career full circle, honoring a woman and performer whose voice she had listened to long before she ever imagined stepping into her shoes.

Fun fact: Victoria and Liz both performed at Opryland USA theme park, where they first met in the early ’90s.
