Project Features Special 20th Anniversary Version of “Trashy Women” Featuring Willie Nelson, John Anderson and Colt Ford
NASHVILLE, Tenn. (May 2, 2016) – Multi-platinum recording group Confederate Railroad is making their return to radio and retail with the upcoming album, Lucky To Be Alive.
The project marks the first album release in nine years for the
Grammy-nominated group, and will be released on July 15 to music
retailers nationwide. The ACM award-winning band are also bringing the
star power on the album, with guest appearances from Willie Nelson, John
Anderson, Colt Ford and former NFL coach, Jerry Glanville, on a special
20th Anniversary version of the signature smash, “Trashy Women.”
Lead singer Danny Shirley observes, “Every night we play this song I am amazed and thankful at its staying power.”
In addition to the new, revamped version of “Trashy Women,” the
highly anticipated album features all-new material. From the instantly
catchy title track, to the feel-good anthem “If I Ever Cross That Line,”
there is a perfect combination of intense ballads and infectious upbeat
songs. Something new is that Danny is a writer on seven of the album’s
tracks. The Blue Miller & Danny Shirley-produced album showcases the
band’s unique style, bringing their
southern–rock-meets-country-conscience front and center. “Fast Cars And
Guitars” is another standout song, with a classic 90’s feel that will
leave fans of traditional country music singing and dancing for days.
It’s revved up by long-time friend of the band, Hall of Fame member,
Charlie Daniels.
Another nod to Danny’s musical roots and ground-breaking track for
Railroad is the shimmering bluegrass jewel “Don’t Feel As Young As I
Used To” highlighted by guest artist Dan Tyminski of Union Station.
Confederate Railroad is hitting the road in support of Lucky To Be Alive,
with a jam-packed spring/summer tour schedule (see dates below). Fans
will be treated to performances some of their biggest hits including
“Queen of Memphis” and “Daddy Never Was the Cadillac Kind,” along with
new tracks from the upcoming album. Be sure to check out the
country-rockers in a city near you, as they remind concertgoers of the
hell-raising, good-time band they fell in love with 20 years ago.
