Sierra Ferrell
One of the brightest young luminaries in roots music today, Sierra Ferrell brings a dose of beautifully strange magic to everything she touches. Since the release of her 2024 album “Trail Of Flowers” (Rounder Records), the West Virginia-born singer/songwriter/multi-instrumentalist took home the Artist of the Year and Album of the Year prizes at the Americana Honors & Awards, and won four GRAMMY awards for Best Americana Album (“Trail of Flowers”), Best American Roots Performance (“Lighthouse”), Best Americana Performance (“American Dreaming”), and Best American Roots Song (“American Dreaming”). Ferrell has collaborated with the likes of Margo Price, Old Crow Medicine Show and Post Malone, and enchanted audiences all over North America and Europe with her high-spirited and dazzling live performances. On “Trail Of Flowers,” the Nashville-based artist expands her sound while deepening the urgency of her songs, often revealing a wealth of wisdom within her wildly imaginative storytelling.
Her first full-length since “Long Time Coming” – a 2021 release that drew praise from outlets like Pitchfork, Paste, Pop Matters and No Depression – “Trail Of Flowers” came to life with producer Eddie Spear (Zach Bryan, Brandi Carlile, Chris Stapleton) and additional production by Gary Paczosa (Alison Krauss, Dwight Yoakam, Gillian Welch) and with such esteemed musicians as Chris Scruggs. In keeping with a musical upbringing that included playing everywhere from truck stops to boxcars to New Orleans street corners, the album journeys from freewheeling bluegrass to heartrending old-time music to fantastically gritty honky-tonk and beyond, endlessly changing shape to accommodate the immense scope of Ferrell’s eccentric musicality.
Instantly proving her extraordinary capacity to merge timeless musicianship with lyrics exploring modern concerns, “Trail Of Flowers” opens on “American Dreaming” – a world-weary yet soul-stirring track that speaks to the struggle to build a good life in a culture consumed by capitalism. “Fox Hunt” takes the form of a furiously stomping epic driven by galloping rhythms and some feverish fiddle work from Ferrell. On “Rosemary,” she delves further into her old-time roots and delivers the album’s most haunting moment: a stark but spellbinding story-song graced with a few bars of soulful yodeling. A profoundly gifted vocalist, Ferrell often captures an entire world of feeling in just a single line, particularly on tracks like “Dollar Bill Bar” – a swinging but wistful number on which she cycles from longing to regret to devil-may-care attitude with impossible ease. And on “I Could Drive You Crazy,” Ferrell serves up one of the most joyful moments on “Trail Of Flowers,” sharing a harmony-fueled and sing-along-ready love song that’s both self-effacing and gloriously fun.
In selecting a title for her latest body of work, Ferrell chose to reference her deep love of flowers and affinity for surrounding herself with gorgeously colorful blossoms – a perfect reflection of her wondrous inner world. As a listening experience, “Trail Of Flowers” provides a similar sensation of all-enveloping and off-kilter beauty – one that Ferrell hopes might lift others into a more charmed state of mind.
Sierra Ferrell has partnered with PLUS1 so that $1 from every ticket sold goes to support the National Immigration Law Center and their work advancing and defending the rights and opportunities of low-income immigrants and their loved ones.
Tanya Tucker
A modern-day legend, defining voice of country music and a two-time 2020 GRAMMY® winner, Tanya Tucker continues to inspire generations of artists with her unmistakable voice and fearless spirit. In 2023, she was inducted into the Country Music Hall of Fame, cementing her place among the greatest icons in country music history. Born in Seminole, Texas, Tanya burst onto the scene at just 13 years old with her first hit, the now-classic “Delta Dawn” in 1972. Since then, she has amassed 23 Top 40 albums and an incredible 56 Top 40 singles, including 10 No. 1 hits on the Billboard country charts. Her timeless songs include “Soon,” “Two Sparrows in a Hurricane,” “It’s a Little Too Late,” “Trouble,” “Texas (When I Die),” “If It Don’t Come Easy,” “Strong Enough to Bend” and many more. Tucker’s career is decorated with numerous accolades, including two CMAs, two ACMs and three CMT Awards. In 2020, she won two GRAMMY® Awards for Best Country Album (“While I’m Livin’”) and Best Country Song (“Bring My Flowers Now”). That same year, Fantasy Records released “Tanya Tucker – Live From The Troubadour,” capturing her historic, standing-room-only performance at the legendary venue. Her remarkable career resurgence was the subject of the 2022 Sony Pictures Classics documentary, “The Return of Tanya Tucker, Featuring Brandi Carlile,” which The New York Times praised for showcasing her enduring talent and emotional depth. The following year, she made her acting debut in the Paramount original film “A Nashville Country Christmas,” starring alongside Academy Award® winner Keith Carradine. Beyond music, Tanya has left her mark in the world of spirits with Tanya Tucker’s Cosa Salvaje Tequila, now available in the U.S. and Canada, with expansion growing daily.
