What's That Flower You Have On? Tanya Tucker to Release New Music

 
​Legendary artist Tanya Tucker planted herself as the centerpiece of the 2019 CMT Awards - - joined by Brandi Carlile, Deana Carter, Martina McBride, Trisha Yearwood, Shooter Jennings and more on a collaboration of the iconic song "Delta Dawn", Tucker demonstrated just why we all need more Tanya in our lives (and as you'll see by the songstress's swivels in the awards performance video, her moves said whatever her voice may not have covered). This classic mainstay even somehow once found its way to Monica on Friends so it's no wonder we still want to share it with all modern-day country-loving friends too. 

Oh, a side note - no, that brown wig is not Kimberly Schlapman's real hair. -MC/TCC

As if that awards performance weren't more than enough - Tanya announced a new album (!) due on August 23rd. While I'm Livin'  is produced by none other than Shooter Jennings and Brandi Carlile. Carlile co-wrote many of the songs on Livin' with Tucker also co-writing the album's closer, "Bring My Flowers Now". Pre-order Tanya Tucker's highly anticipated new album here. Further showing off her high ride is an official music video for the album's track "Wheels of Laredo". This project is her first album of all-new material since Tanya in 2002.

"Now" speaks to the importance of showing appreciation to those we love before it’s too late. Carlile explains, “We have so few opportunities to thank the legends that have influenced the generations of Country music singers and writers. With Tanya we have quite an opportunity because she’s young. I’m drawn to Tanya Tucker because she’s been to hell and to heaven, not to mention every square inch of Texas. She’s lived, she’s living, she’s got something to say and I’m listening.”

“Brandi is truly out of this world. She’s talented, smart, funny, never ever slows down and has a heart of gold,” says Tucker of the collaboration. “I just love her. She was like my shadow when we were in the studio. Every time I turned around, she was there. And Shooter, I’ve known him since he was a baby. He’s the one who brought us all together. So I’m ready to get this music out there because it’s different than anything I’ve ever done.”
