Sunny Sweeney makes it look easy. Just as comfortable commanding a stadium stage on tour with Bob Segeras she is pouring her heart out from a listening-room stool, she is an outlier: A humble East Texas kid with super-star chops, singing her own songs made up of equal parts wit, soul, and hard truth. Four albums into a career that has earned praise from Rolling Stone, NPR, American Songwriter, and more, Sunny has drawn a loyal following, experienced the major label deal, and ultimately, embraced her independence--and smart country music that likes to have its rock and honky tonk too is that much better for it. Sweeney will release a new live album, Recorded Live At The Machine Shop Recording Studio, on November 13, 2020, and is currently in the studio at work on her next record.
