Tenille Townes

Acclaimed singer, songwriter and performer Tenille Townes’ new song ‘Jersey On The Wall’ is out now – listen/share here: https://smarturl.it/JerseyOnTheWall.

She recently discussed the song and the story behind it with Rolling Stone’s Marissa Moss, who praises, “…precise and potent lyrics full of empathy…It’s not a love song or a party song, but a moment of country music existentialism.” Read the full interview here.

Tenille Townes JOTW_COVER_900‘Jersey On The Wall’ comes from Townes’ forthcoming full-length debut album, which was produced by Jay Joyce and is set for release via Columbia Nashville. Previously released album tracks include ‘White Horse‘, ‘I Kept The Roses‘ and lead single ‘Somebody’s Daughter‘ which reached #1 on both Mediabase and Nielsen BDS Country Airplay in Canada.

Townes will also perform at the 2019 ACM Honors ceremony, which recognises the special honourees and off-camera category winners from the 54th annual ACM Awards. The event will take place next Wednesday, August 21st at Nashville’s historic Ryman Auditorium.  

Moreover, Townes recently participated in Cracker Barrel’s Five Decades, One Voice campaign—a project created to highlight the importance of women in country music by celebrating legendary female artists and those following in their footsteps. For the project, Townes was personally selected by Brandi Carlile to collaborate on new versions of two songs—Townes’ ‘Somebody’s Daughter‘ and Carlile’s ‘Fulton County Jane Doe‘. 

Townes is currently on the road supporting Dierks Bentley on his extensive “Burning Man Tour” and will join Miranda Lambert on her “Roadside Bars & Pink Guitars Tour” this fall. She will also perform select dates with Maren Morris in November; as well as returning to the UK for a London headline show (upgraded due to demand) and tour dates with Striking Matches – limited tickets available now:
