NashCamp Director (TV production credits here) Email Cindy: nashcamp@nashcamp.com

A native of Illinois, Cindy grew up playing music with her family. One of her earliest jobs was as a singer/banjo player on the steamboat Julia Belle Swain, and it was during this time that she had the good fortune to become friends with revered singer/songwriter John Hartford and his wife Marie, who convinced her to move to Nashville to find work. She is "Cindy's learning to steer..." in John's Julia Belle Swain song on the Grammy winning MARK TWANG album. Sinclair followed Hartford's advice, but first she took care of some minor formalities: She received a double BA in Music and Theatre, Southern Illinois University. A member of AEA, AFTRA, SAG (former Nashville president), and the Directors Guild of America, Cindy's credits speak for themselves. Her production resume includes The Grammy Awards, The Latin Grammy Awards, The NARAS MusicCares Tribute to Elton John, Sting and Bono, The CMA Awards, Steinway's 150th Anniversary at Carnegie Hall, Faith Hill's FIREFLIES for NBC, Kenny Chesney SOMEWHERE IN THE SUN for ABC, Larry the Cable Guy’s Christmas Spectacular, The George Jones Show, The Statler Brothers Show, Willie Nelson & Friends, The ABC Walt Disney Christmas Parade, the series On The Record With Loretta Lynn, Johnny Cash, Olivia Newton John, Dolly Parton and more.

Cindy plays and sings with bluegrass band "The Kingston Strings" and is honored to be NashCamp's coordinating director. “The rewards from NashCamp are immense, both personally and professionally.”, says Sinclair. “Our biggest success story is country superstar Dierks Bentley”, who was a guitar student in 1998. Through Cindys contacts, other NashCampers have been placed on The Grand Ole Opry and major network televsion specials.
