AUDIENCE Network's multiple series of original and exclusive performances give music fans an intimate view of music's most influential artists today. The network collaborates directly with musicians to create a unique show from their perspective.
An American music icon and nine-time GRAMMY Award recipient Sheryl Crow has released eight studio albums, which have sold 35 million copies worldwide. Seven of them charted in the Top 10 and five were certified formulti-platinum sales. In addition to such No. 1 hits as "All I Wanna Do,""Soak Up the Sun" and "The First Cut Is the Deepest," Crow has notched40 singles on the Billboard Hot 100, Adult Top 40, Adult Contemporary, Mainstream Top 40 and Hot Country Songs charts, with more No. 1 singles in the Triple A listings than any other female artist.
On Be Myself, Crow worked again with producer, musician, and songwriterJeff Trott, a long-time collaborator throughout her career. Trott co-wrote many of Crow's classic hits including "If It Makes You Happy" and "My Favorite Mistake." Crow says her main goal was "to investigate what made my early songs strike people as being authentic and original. So for the first time in my life, I made it a point to sit down and really listen to my old records. I'd drive my kids to school and play the old stuff as I came back home. That helped me remember what it felt like when I was just beginning as an artist. But it wasn't about repeating myself. It was about revisiting where I came from and seeing where that would take me now."
"The other thing that makes Be Myself special to me is that it's really topical,"Crow continues. "This past summer, because of what was going on in the world and particularly in the United States; I began to feel a sense of urgency about writing." Crow and Trott agreed to enlist their old friend Tchad Blake toengineer and mix the sessions with whom they hadn't worked with for 18 years. Be Myself is like each of her preceding releases: thoughtful and candid. It's unlike them too, mainly in that it represents contradictory movement--a look at the world today powered in part by a return to the energy that naturally lofted Crow and her music into the limelight.
Sheryl Crow will launch a tour this spring and summer in support of Be Myself (see dates below).
