Programmer Playlist: Shawna Russell
Shawna Russell and Way Out West Records are proudly releasing the retro and rockin’ uptempo summertime single “Sounds Like A Party” to Country radio. Russell previously released the song to European radio last year, and it climbed to No. 3 on the Hotdisc chart in only three weeks.
“Sounds Like A Party” was co-written by Russell and produced at LOUD Studios in Nashville by Grammy-winning engineer Julian King, along with Clif Doyal and Tim Russell. Shawna also provides her slide guitar talents on the track.
“Sounds Like A Party” is fast on the heels of Russell’s previous single “Waitin’ On Sunrise,” which landed at No. 29 on MusicRow’s CountryBreakout chart. Russell is only the second independent solo female to hit the Top 30 of the MusicRow chart in the past year.
Russell released her self-titled sophomore album in 2011, winning praise from Billboard.com, Roughstock, Maverick, Music News Nashville, Today’s Country, CountryChart.com and the Oklahoma Gazette, among others. In addition to writing, recording and performing, Russell is also the focus of a reality television series in development that focuses on her life as a traveling female musician.
