Lee Ann Womack
April 10th 8pm

Lee Ann Womack is truly one of country music's greatest artists. This mulit-Grammy award winning artist has demonstrated time and time again that she is one of the most vital and important artists in the genre with her heartfelt blend of cutting edge country based in the roots of the past. With songs as intimate and plain-spoken as diary entries, Lee Ann Womack reminds us of the things that made country music so enchanting in the first place. Her peculiar magic is being thoroughly traditional without sounding the least bit dated.

The Texas native weds the primal emotional power of a Connie Smith or Reba McEntire, to the sensibilities and dilemmas of modern women. But as Womack's music amply demonstrates, she's not all tears and torment. She can be lyrically light-hearted as well. "There's More Where That Came From" -- the follow-up to her 2004 greatest hits collection -- is for everyone who’s ever loved, lost, and learned hard-earned lessons and lived to tell about it, including the singer herself. "These are songs that aren't afraid to tell the truth," says Womack. "It is definitely honest music as far as the lyrics go. They're a slice of life -- the good, bad and the ugly."

It's not an accident that the album's first single, "I May Hate Myself In The Morning," sounds simultaneously like a classic country cheatin' song and a contemporary breath of fresh air. "This is the kind of stuff I grew up listening to," says the daughter of an east Texas country deejay, who practically wore out her father's vinyl records, soaking up every vocal lick and turn of a phrase like a sponge. "How true is this song?" exclaims Womack. "Even if you haven't been in that situation, we all know somebody who has. It's just honest." Once you hear Lee Ann Womack, you'll never be confused again about who she is or what she is. She's pure country.
