Fans of roots music have asked Patty Loveless for years to reprise the
Appalachian sound of her 2001 Mountain Soul CD, and now she has.
Saguaro Road Records will issue Mountain Soul II on September 29. Like its
predecessor, the album will feature Patty's crystalline country vocals amid
bluegrass-tinged instrumentation.
"It's Appalachian, bluegrass and country combined," says Patty of her
upcoming collection's sound. "You should never try to duplicate something
like Mountain Soul. What you should do is enhance. So this is like a
continuation."
The first Mountain Soul CD was issued June 2001 and as a result of fan
response, Patty Loveless was invited to perform on the critically acclaimed
"Down From the Mountain" tour. She says that experience introduced her to a
whole new audience.
"I was blessed to be able to expose my music to people who normally
don't listen to country music. They loved the more organic, roots-y thing,
but they don't listen to mainstream country. I met quite a few people who
told me that. They kept wanting me to try and recapture that sound. They'd
say, 'When are you going to do another record like this? We love this
album.' I guess they kind of talked me into it."
