Gretchen Wilson and Sony Parting Ways

July 28, 2009/by Sarah Skates

gretchenStatement from Sony Music Nashville:

Gretchen Wilson and her longtime record label group, Sony Music Nashville, have mutually decided to part ways. The Grammy Award winning singer/songwriter and Best Selling author, who exploded on to the country music scene and the national spotlight in 2004 with her smash hit “Redneck Woman,” released three No. 1 albums with Here For The Party, All Jacked Up, and One Of The Boys. Though Wilson will no longer record with the label as a solo artist, both parties look forward to working together on future catalogue projects.

    Gretchen Wilson has a voice that is wasted on the songs provided to her or chosen for the genre. She needs something that showcases the strength and range. I’m not sure where this would take her, but a change was needed.

    she has a good voice, but, she came along and hit the charts with good old honky tonk music,female style..while every body else was doin the pop thing…honky
    tonk was nashville’s signature music for years. she made this label a ton of money….many of the top acts today with their streched out electronic sound, and glitter shows ain’t making it. gretchin comes across as real…
