On June 22 Nashville singer-songwriter Lera Lynn will drop a duets album called Plays Well With Others.
The record features songs written and performed with a bevy of prominent roots musicians which include Peter Bradley Adams, John Paul White, Dylan LeBlanc, Andrew Combs, Rodney Crowell, Shovels & Rope, JD McPherson, and Nicole Atkins.
The album will be released on Single Lock Records and was recorded at John Paul White’s Sun Drop Sound studio in Florence, Alabama.
Of the project, Lynn says:
“Songwriting can be such a personal process; in the past I have tended to do it alone. With this record, I wanted to get outside of my own writing corner. I have access to a great community of writers and singers in Nashville, and it became an exciting challenge to sit down with some friends and say, ‘Let’s write a duet — one that maybe hasn’t been written before — and then record it together.’ This was an important thing for me to do as an artist: to open myself up to other people and have some fun.”
Today NPR premiered the single “Lose Myself,” which Lynn recorded with John Paul White.
