NASHVILLE, Tenn. – GRAMMY® nominated, CMA Award-winner, and newest member of the Grand Ole Opry, T. Graham Brown, recently announced his brand new studio album titled ‘From Memphis to Muscle Shoals.’ Slated to drop on Friday, August 2nd via Warner Music Group-ADA, the album is available for pre-order now and is packed with legendary collaborations, including Bettye LaVette, Sam Moore, Delbert McClinton, Dwight Yoakam, Eddie Floyd, Little Anthony, Randy Houser, Sammy Hagar, Tanya Tucker, Wynonna, and Zach Williams. In a surprise move for fans, Brown has released the third track from the album, “Take Me To The River,” a duet with Wynonna. The song premiered on RFD-TV and is now available.
“Al Green is one of the greatest soul singers of all time,” shares Brown. “I felt the need to cut his and Teenie Hodges’ song “Take Me To The River” because it is one of Al’s biggest hits and one of my favorite songs. When thinking about a duet partner for it, I decided to call Wy. She’s a masterful vocal stylist and sings with a ton of soul. I hope everyone enjoys this groovy track and will turn it up to 11.”
“The Dark End of the Street,” featuring Country Music Hall of Famer and GRAMMY® Award-winning artist Tanya Tucker, was the first track released and exclusively premiered by Whiskey Riff. The second single, “(Sittin’ On) The Dock Of The Day,” which was recently premiered by People and is quickly becoming a fan-favorite amongst Brown’s fans who are eagerly anticipating the new record.
