Pam Tillis - Rhinestoned
Release date - April 17, 2007
This spring, a country music legend is returning to her roots - or perhaps the legend's roots are returning to country music. In either case, on April 17th, 2007, Pam Tillis will release Rhinestoned, her first collection of all new music since 2001's Thunder And Roses.
"What I'm doing is country - but not necessarily the kind that you hear on the airwaves these days," Tillis explains. "Now, I admire a lot of this music; after all, I've sung rock, pop, R&B, and jazz, so I'm hardly a purist. But what I'm hearing now sounds often more like pop than country to me. And I just seriously felt called by that old different drummer to something a little bit more like the country I remember from my formative years, the country music of my youth."
The album will be the first to be released on the Stellar Cat label, which is Pam's own imprint. Because she had complete creative control, she let her heart lead the way toward material that she could perform honestly and emotionally. "This is an A&R-free zone," she says, smiling. "But it is, first of all, real country. It's a bookend to 'the Dad album,' except it has all new songs. It's like a bridge between the present and the past."
