Barbara Cecil was born in Indianapolis, Indiana, and moved out west to the rural countryside of Oregon when she was three years old. Being the last child of four children, she found herself growing up somewhat alone. Barbara found out at an early age she could entertain herself by singing, in fact she developed a strong powerful voice, by singing at the top of her lungs and as loud as she wanted. She knew that no one could hear her, way out in the woods. After high school, Barbara sang through the local pageant circuit, and sang for a local country band.

IN 1994 Barbara started singing as a solo performer at state and county fairs throughout the Pacific Northwest performing her favorite kind of music, country. Anything from Patsy Cline to Shania Twain.
Wanting to be taken more seriously Barbara started working with several local country bands, and writing her own music, in 1998 she opened for national recording artist Chris LeDoux and self released her first CD titled, Big Trouble Now". In 1999 Barbara Started "The Barbara Cecil Band and performed for one season.
In November of 2000, Barbara joined a nine piece 50s and 60s rock n roll show band called "Johnny Limbo and the Lugnuts", as their only female singer, singing leads and backup harmonies. Barbara continues to write music and is working on songs for her next CD.
