T. Graham Brown - From Memphis to Muscle Shoals (2024) [Hi-Res]

GRAMMY® nominated, CMA Award-winner, and soon-to-be newest member of the Grand Ole Opry, T. Graham Brown, is excited to announce a brand new studio album titled ‘From Memphis to Muscle Shoals,’ which is set 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. The first single off the new album, “The Dark End of the Street,” featuring Country Music Hall of Famer and GRAMMY® Award-winning artist Tanya Tucker, was exclusively premiered by Whiskey Riff and is available now.

“I had the idea to do a soul tribute album for probably the last twenty years,” shares Brown. “When the opportunity came up, we jumped on it. We went down to Muscle Shoals, the heartbeat of soul music. Billy Lawson (co-producer) and I cut fourteen tracks and I started asking friends to sing on it with me. We made ten duets in total. This album was a lot of fun. We cut it to be authentic to the mid-60s. We used the same instrumentation, the horn sections, and we even used some of the instruments and equipment that were used on the original tracks at the historic Fame Studios. I think this is the “truest” album possible.”

“The first single, “The Dark End Of The Street” is one of the greatest cheating songs ever written,” continues Brown. “I wanted Tanya Tucker on it because we are old friends. We have done duets before, including one big hit. She’s sultry, and I knew this was the perfect song for us to do together…she said yes….and she did an awesome job on it.”
