​Waiting to shake the sugar tree once more? Well, good news: Just a spoonful of sugar makes the medicine go down - so this delightful news is sure to sound oh-so-sweet. In fine stellar (Nashville) cat form, Pam Tillis is set to release a new collection including fan favorite "My Kind of Medicine", co-written with Jimmy Ritchey and Don Poythress. Its title track was co-written with Waylon Payne. Pre-save it here:  https://t.e2ma.net/click/m1zz6b/m1rp9u/686ldh

“Stylistically, there’s so much here that’s always been a part of me,” she says. “It’s a story I haven’t told on any of my records so far. I wanted work that’s as close to true and unselfconscious as possible, to provide access to my heart.”

Pam started the project recording using analog tape at the Welcome to 1979 studio with a veritable who’s who of musicians. Guitarist Pat Buchanan, keyboard man Jim "Moose" Brown, steel legend Dan Dugmore, and Mark Knopfler alum Glenn Whorf joined hit songwriter and producer Jimmy Ritchey for the sessions.  Along with two tracks that Tillis produced with Matt Spicher, Tillis finished the project with Joe Pisapia at East Nashville’s Middle Tree, with the notion that “feel is king and the beauty of the perfectly imperfect was our holy grail.” 
 
Speaking to the spoken/sung selection “Dolly 1969,” Tillis remembers: “I met Dolly as a little girl, and you could see that drive; the legends I grew up around taught me that it takes nothing less than a fire to make it in this business. Even if that fire causes a little collateral damage along the way, you know nothing’s going to stop that burning to create music.”

Laughing, Tillis says of Bobby Tomberlin co-write "Last Summer's Wine" - “It’s the distant cousin of ‘Maybe It Was Memphis.’ Older, wiser, wine and wistfulness.”

Tillis is currently on tour with fellow songstress Suzy Bogguss and Country Gold-en girl Terri Clark. If you're in the Canadian country, catch Pam with her darling Dos Divas and Come See Me and Come Lonely singing sister Lorrie Morgan on May 28 and 29th.

    About

    Hi. I'm a member of the country club. Country Music is what I love.  

    ​Are you somewhere that you don't belong? Without a jukebox and a country song? Maybe you came here seeking a nice, bright, sunny, resort-y kind of place. The kind of place festooned with ferns. Maybe this was even your LAST resort. We hope not. But don't worry, we still have the best of intentions with this blog - you might not find a lot of tennis but we still intend to raise a racket now and then. (In other words --- although you will sometimes find press releases here we net ORIGINAL content too).
