Country music has a mega-star, and doesn't even know it. Tift is an unbelievable singer-song writer.
I love discovering great artists like Tift - especially when "The Machine" tries to pidgeon-hole them in a particular genre. If she IS country, she's NOT the bubble-gum crap Nashville has been spewing for years now. She's soulful-country-blues, which isn't cookie cutter -it's "real". She reminds me of bits and pieces of greats like Emmylou Harris, Mindy Smith, Stacey Earle, and even some Gladys Knight. I just downloaded all of her stuff from iTunes and can't wait to discover all of it.
She is one of my favorites along with Patty Griffin. They write the most beautiful stuff and perform so well. They are consistently good. And can tear your heart out with some of the lyrics.
she looks and sounds classic, i like it
I saw her Virginia video years ago..I'm blown away to find she's pretty damn good on the guitfiddle too! Talented as all get out. Pretty too!
Morning is my destination is brilliant, a country/ soul should be hit
saw her yesterday in muenster (germany) solo- what a GIFTED & WARMHEARTED woman she is!! and she loved her hefeweizen ;-))
this is the first time i've ever heard her (this episode was...not the video i'm watching now) and i'm really impressed with her.
who said that this was country? it is just darn good music, and she had the chance to play the opry..well all the better! Big night for her!,,just enjoy her music
She's much better live than on record.
I was at that show. We were in Nashville for a few days and I had seats on the left side almost at teh stage.
Tufts gorgeous. Australian tour please.
Where did all the Tift sonfs from Birmingham Steve go?????
No, marry ME, Tift!
how did this get classified as country? and why does she accept the classification? amy macdonald is huge in europe and shes not country. tift merrit would be huge in the states if she wasnt considered country. and tift is way hotter than amy.
