Leigh Nash Teams With Vince Gill, Tanya Tucker, CeCe Winans, More On New Collection
Leigh Nash, frontwoman of Sixpence None The Richer, has gathered an eclectic group of duet partners on her new six-song collection, The Tide, Vol. 1, slated for release Sept. 24 via Visionary Media Group.
Nash’s recognizable vocal style, made famous on monster hits such as “Kiss Me” and “There She Goes,” blends seamlessly with the partners she’s selected for The Tide, Vol. 1, including Tanya Tucker, Vince Gill, Ruby Amanfu, CeCe Winans, Raul Malo, and Nash’s husband and longtime creative partner Stephen Wilson Jr.
The Tide’s tracks run the gamut of styles and stories, from the lament of “Never Again, Every Time” with Tucker, to the sensual cover of the Elton John classic “Your Song,” to the stirring rendition of the hymn “I Need Thee Every Hour” with Winans, and the dissection of the racial experience on “Good Trouble” with Amanfu. Each track serves to further reveal Nash’s diversity as a performer and heart as a storyteller.
“I think the thread is vulnerability, just being open to whatever the creative thing is that whispers in our ear,” Nash said. “Listen to it… trust it. It’s being vulnerable to the moment, to the songs, to the music, to why I’m on this earth.” She continues, “What I’ve found to be true with my songwriting is that I seem to serve a story or song better when it’s something that just happened naturally with me, like an encounter or conversation. I didn’t necessarily write them for this project. They’re a collection of songs that I’ve had that are my favorites, and just hadn’t had their due yet. So this is an exciting opportunity for me to get them out there and work with some of my heroes, too.”
