Album Intro:

2011 release from the Lubbock, Texas-based singer/songwriter/fiddler. Amanda Shires is blessed with a singular, literate songwriting style and a crystalline, distinct voice that hints at her Lubbock roots. Much like Neko Case's Blacklisted and Lucinda Williams' Happy Woman Blues, Carrying Lightning is the work of an artist gaining control of her considerable talents and funneling them into a cohesive whole. From playing fiddle in the Texas Playboys at the precocious age of 15 to playing with Gwyneth Paltrow in Country Strong just this year, Shires displays the kind of talent that has garnered her praise from artists like Justin Townes Earle, DeVotchKa and Jason Isbell.

This singer-songwriter, now 29 years old, grew up in Lubbock and Mineral Wells, Texas, started playing fiddle with the Texas Playboys as a teenager, and now lives in Nashville, Tenn. Her strong, palpitating voice has drawn comparisons to Dolly Parton, but her work is less ethereal, more soulful and darker. There's some Tom Waits and George Jones in there, too. One new song: 'When You Need a Train It Never Comes.' Also wielding a ukulele, she's touring with guitarist Rod Picott (he co-wrote the modern classic 'Broke Down' with Slaid Cleaves).
