Nashville tears : the songs of Hugh Prestwood

"On 2020's Nashville Tears, singer Rumer applies her deeply moving vocal style to the music of beloved country songwriter Hugh Prestwood. A collaboration with Canadian producer Fred Mollin (Jimmy Webb, America, Kris Kristofferson), the album is a fitting addition to the singer's catalog, with songs that tap Prestwood's deep well of poetic, everyday sadness".

"Pakistan-born chanteuse's unexpected but immaculate country conversion: Helmed by former Jimmy Webb producer Fred Mollin, it features the cream of Nashville's session fraternity on 15 songs by Hugh Prestwood, whose material has been recorded by the likes of Judy Collins, Trisha Yearwood and Alison Krauss. Prestwood's slow-burning tales of desire and domestic discord are well-matched by Rumer's beautifully plangent voice ... Though leavened with a couple of uptempo songs (including the rocking "Deep Summer In The Deep South"), the mood, for the most part, is subdued, suiting the warm intimacy of Rumer's delivery".
