Well folks I have to say outright some of y’all will say Pistol Annies are
\npop country or too mainstream.
\nWell, I’m not writing this article to analyze anything they do nor will
\nI critic the fact I don’t personally care for Miranda Lambert.
\nI WILL SAY that her latest release “Platinum” had a few good songs on it
\nand probably WAS her best album yet.<\/p>\n

But I MUST admit I have a guilty pleasure and it’s Hippie Annie, Holler
\nAnnie and Lone Star Annie A.K.A. Pistol Annies.
\nTheir first album didn’t leave my CD player for half of 2012…UNTIL..<\/p>\n

Ashley Monroe released her second album “Like A Rose”.
\nWhen I heard that Vince Gill co-wrote three songs and produced the
\nalbum AND Paul Franklin was behind the steel guitar I KNEW it was
\nautomatically good.
\nAnd Daggumn it if it wasn’t one of 2013’s BEST albums! Hell it
\nis STILL in my current constant rotation of CD’s.
\nThe song “Monroe Suede” just BLEW ME AWAY!<\/p>\n

Now honestly they were not getting a mega ton of airplay
\ntogether as the Pistol Annies and they were not playing a ton of dates
\non tour together either.
\nSo honestly I can NOT tell you whether the Pistol Annies are or are NOT
\ntogether..may be they are on hiatus.
\nTheir website has listed no show dates right now cause I would LOVE to see
\nthem again live.
\nAshley Monroe had publicly said they didn’t have enough time to
\nrehearse for the tour so they did not tour for their second album
\n“Annie Up”.<\/p>\n

Ashley Monroe puts on one HELL of a damn fine show all by her lonesome
\nand her writing talents are just amazing!
\nKind of trashy but yet in a middle class way so to speak.
\nI believe she defiantly identifies with middle class working people
\nMUCH LIKE the days of older country music…like Merle Haggard that
\nstill rings true today.
\nMerle Haggard is one of the best legends left.
\nThese gals are showing mainstream country it’s OK to be “curvy”
\nand average and fed up with your husband!<\/p>\n

She debuted a song called “Has Anybody Ever Told You” for the first
\ntime ever on the stage of the Grand Ole Opry.
\nNow,another reason I really like her is because of her involvement with
\nthe Opry.
\nI applaud her always taking the time to stop and perform on it as often
\nas she does.<\/p>\n

Now I want to tell you about the debut album from Angaleena Presley.
\nThe album will hit you on October 12th and it will be called
\n“American Middle Class” and it will be released on Slate Creek records.
\nSo let me remind you JUST WHO is head honcho at Slate Creek Records.
\nThe master behind Don Williams….Garth Fundis.
\nAnd she will be co-producing the album with her husband Jordan Powell.<\/p>\n

ONE THING you will read constantly on this website are the three
\npillars or fundamentals of country music.
\nThe producer, the songwriter and the steel guitarist.
\nYou have two or all three of them you have a classic country album.<\/p>\n

She is almost finished with the album and is currently
\ndoing some dates with the Indigo Girls.
\nAnd there will be some singing presence from Country singer
\nPatty Loveless.<\/p>\n

So there you have it folks, you can take it for what it’s worth.
\nI myself firmly believe we will see the Pistol Annies together
\nagain.
\nBUT when I pay to see them I REALLY hope they do NOT play their
\nsolo music during the show.
\nI was once upset during an Eagles show..cause I paid to hear them
\ntogether!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
