Product Description
With Tears, Lies, And Alibis, the follow-up to 2008's Just A Little Lovin' and the first release on her own label EVERSO RECORDS, Shelby Lynne affirms her position as a visionary, iconoclastic artist who deftly weaves country, soul, rock, blues, pop and folk influences to forge her own unique style. Like Identity Crisis (2003) and Suit Yourself (2005), this sparse, unguarded collection was produced by Lynne, who evokes a live-in-the-studio vibe from a stellar group of musicians.

Born in Quantico, VA, she grew up in Jackson, AL and headed to Nashville at an early age. At 18, Lynne's demos landed her an appearance on TNN's Nashville Now series, which led to a Top 50 duet ('If I Could Bottle This Up') with George Jones and a record deal. Following the release of the critically acclaimed I Am Shelby Lynne in 2000, she won the GRAMMY® for Best New Artist. She made her acting debut in 2005, playing Johnny Cash's mother in the Fox Searchlight motion picture Walk the Line.

anything she puts out is ok by me.

i still listen to "love, shelby" all the time. one of my most underrated albums of all time.

I'm definitely looking forward to this. She's one of my favorite contemporary artists.

On April 20th, Shelby Lynne will release her latest album, Tears, Lies, And Alibis, on her own newly founded label, EVERSO RECORDS, which is being distributed through Fontana, the award-winning independent distribution division of Universal Music Group. This sparse, intimate collection of 10 songs, all written and produced by the GRAMMY award-winning artist, follows 2008's Just a Little Lovin', a lush, pop collection paying tribute to Dusty Springfield that was produced by Phil Ramone.
"I've made records for 20 years and never been more excited," says Lynne, who has released 10 studio albums in that period, including her 2000 breakthrough, I Am Shelby Lynne. "I finally have the creative control I've needed to get my vision out there."

"Shelby has always been a true original," stated Ron Spaulding, President of Fontana. "She stands atop the list of innovative songwriters and soulful vocalists. Tears, Lies, And Alibis is a stunning and true revelation by one of the world's most insightful and unpredictable artists. The entire Fontana family is thrilled to be part of the next chapter in an already critically-acclaimed career."

While Tears, Lies, And Alibis signals increased independence for an artist already known for defying tradition, it was shaped by those close to her, who encouraged Lynne to venture down paths she might not have otherwise explored. "Loser Dreamer" was triggered by a phone conversation with Brian "Brain" Harrison, who engineered the sessions and played bass, Moog and percussion. Their talk about musicians and relationships ended the dry spell she'd been experiencing as a songwriter.

"Rains Came," the album's first song and lead single, came about in an equally organic fashion, inspired by a rare storm in the Southern California desert where she resides. As the rain fell one Sunday morning, Lynne, who misses the Southern rainstorms of her Alabama childhood tremendously, resisted the impulse to go outside and stand in it and grabbed a pen instead. The resulting song, with Randy Leago on horns and Val McCallum on guitar, is perhaps the sunniest sounding one ever written about having the blues. "The dark side of me seems to like how it feels when it's pouring," she sings with unabashed exuberance. Like "Something To Be Said," her ode to the iconic Airstream trailer, it's a song that might not have made the album if her collaborators hadn't encouraged her to "give it a whirl."

The track listing for Tears, Lies, And Alibis is as follows:

1. Rains Came
2. Like A Fool
3. Why Didn't You Call Me
4. Alibi
5. Something To Be Said
6. Family Tree
7. Loser Dreamer
8. Old #7
9. Old Dog
10. Home Sweet Home

Just got the news about the release date — AND an Atlanta show on May 15. My day is made.

I like the title. It reminds me of Bobby Bare Sings Lullabys, Legends, And Lies (a wonderful album). I hope Shelby's disc is as good!

Barnes & Noble has a special edition with a bonus track:

11 Don't You Know Bonus Track

thank you for that info, always good to know ahead of time.

iTunes has two additional bonus tracks: "Laugh Out Loud" and "Love Song". Neither of them add much to the core 10 songs of the album. However, the Barnes & Noble track is very good! Incidentally, the B&N version comes in a jewel case, while I bought a digipack of 10-track version of this on Saturday at another local store.

This is a really nice abum. I love the organic straightforward recordings.....I read another review where she took these tapes to her (still then record company) Lost Highway, they wanted them rereorded with a big name producer, and she left.

I bought the B&N version, and yes, the bonus track is well worth it. I love the 1st track....kind of country music meets Diana Ross & The Supremes.

I'm seeing her in NYC May 10th....gotta play this album a bit more to get used to the songs.

NY Daily News review......

I was able to find and hear the sample of "Laugh Out Loud" on iTunes when I looked up this album, but not "Love Song." Any help you can offer? Thanks.

I believe "Love Song" was an itunes pre-order only track.

when "love, shelby" came out there was a european single with 3 unreleased songs on it.

anyone know of anything like that for this album.

or any one place to get all three bonus tracks.

Just got back from a terrific show by Shelby Lynne at the Iron Horse Music Hall in Northampton, Massachusetts. She looked great and was in excellent voice and spirits. Her set list was about half songs from the new album and half older material.

At one point, she said that she had begged her previous record companies to let her do a Christmas record, but they always refused. Now that she's got her own record label, she announced that there'll be a Christmas album coming out later this year that will include at least a couple originals. Looking forward to that coming out!
