For Sparrow Monroe has worked with Brendan Benson and Waylon Payne, and longtime friends Anderson East and Angaleena Presley. She co-wrote every song on the record and she recorded it while she was pregnant.
“I felt powerful,” she says. “I wasn’t puffing, I wasn’t drinking wine, I was just singing.”
“I knew I wanted to work with Dave. All of his records are consistently awesome and classic, timeless, old and new all in one.”
“Country music is a wide genre, and that’s OK,” Monroe says. “I don’t even know what genre this record is, but I know it’s me.”
