Amanda Shires Debuts 'That's All' Genesis Cover  Image

Today, Amanda Shires shares a cover of the beloved Genesis song, "That's All," via Rolling Stone. Listen HERE and watch the official lyric video.

Shires describes the song as a "true COVID anthem," and its accompanying lyric video depicts much of what we've experienced in 2020: COVID, Ruth Bader Ginsberg, murder hornets, an Eddie Van Halen guitar, Little Richard, Harvey Weinstein in jail, Tiger King and a dumpster fire.

Shires will ring in the New Year performing at Brooklyn Bowl Nashville with Jason Isbell and the 400 Unit. The show will take place December 31 at 8pm CT, streaming only on FANS; more info/tickets HERE.

Earlier this year, Shires released critically acclaimed track "The Problem" featuring her husband Jason Isbell to coincide with International Safe Abortion Day. All proceeds benefitted the Yellowhammer Fund, an abortion fund and reproductive justice organization based in Alabama. Watch the video HERE.
