Various / Tribute - Petty Country: A Country Music Celebration / Var [CD]

"Petty Country: A Country Music Celebration Of Tom Petty" - Various Artists - 2024 release. Petty Country: A Country Music Celebration of Tom Petty is a country music tribute to Tom lovingly curated by some of his closest friends and collaborators, including great friend and GRAMMY Award-winner George Drakoulias and Tom's esteemed colleague Randall Poster. Some of the most lauded voices in country music explore the extensive Petty catalog and put their own personal touches on some of his greatest hits. Tom Petty & The Heartbreakers was one of the most singular and distinctly American bands. Beyond the West Coast rock/folk jangle, San Francisco psychedelia and a blast of British invasion, the South's influence was a constant throughout Petty's songwriting - in his words, truths and especially his defiance and dignity. Petty Country: A Country Music Celebration of Tom Petty draws on all the aspects and flavors of the Gainesville-raised icon's roots, bringing the top talent in Country and Americana music together to create a 20-song tribute to Petty's dynamic musical legacy. Includes tracks by Dolly Parton, Chris Stapleton, Lady A, Thomas Rhett, Willie Nelson & Lukas Nelson, Dierks Bentley, Luke Combs, and more.
