As displayed in Loving You, Amanda Shires and Bobbie Nelson shared a profound connection. The result is a tribute to the artists’ talents and essential listening for piano-based country music fans and Americana listeners.
Shires displays her reverence for Nelson in her fiddle playing and with some of the most impassioned vocals in her career while showcasing Nelson’s pianism, giving her a fond, tender farewell, Texas style.
Shires has a relaxed, natural rapport with Nelson that gives Loving You a genuine sense of warmth: this wasn't intended as a tribute or a goodbye, it was merely a relaxed session between two kindred spirits and its inherent modesty makes it quite satisfying.
