SAN DIEGO, CALIF., October 9, 2019 – Carrie Underwood Songs Translate With ASL.

Concerts are becoming more accessible for the Deaf and Hard of Hearing population every day. American Sign Language (ASL) interpreters are being provided at these events to create more inclusivity and to bring a better event experience to those who communicate through ASL. There is so much heart, feeling and energy being put into ASL interpreting at these shows that it really brings the concerts to life.

Recently, singer Carrie Underwood happened upon a viral internet video of a 9 year old girl signing along to one of her songs. She was so impressed that she invited the girl and her family to experience her show front row in Washington DC.

Standing front row, the young girl signed along to the songs and did so well that she even impressed the ASL interpreter for the Washington DC show. After the concert, Underwood invited the girl backstage and asked her if she’d like to perform a song together, signing the words as Underwood sang them. Of course she said yes and they put on a great performance together.

Watch them perform the song together and read much more about this story here: https://www.usatoday.com/story/life/parenting/2019/10/07/carrie-underwood-meets-deaf-girl-sign-language-song-interpretation-viral/3896231002/
