Tom Petty & The Heartbreakers was one of the most singular and distinctly American bands. Beyond the west coast Rock-Folk jangle, San Francisco psychedelia and a blast of British invasion, the south's influence was a constant throughout Petty's songwriting in his words, truths and especially his defiance and dignity.
Petty Country: A Country Celebration of Tom Petty draws on all the aspects and flavors of the Gainesville-raised icon's roots and leans into the genre that defines the region, bringing the top talent in Country and Americana music together to create a 20-song tribute to Petty's dynamic musical legacy.
Executive produced by Scott Borchetta (Big Machine Label Group), George Drakoulias (Tom Petty & The Heartbreakers, The Black Crowes) and Randall Poster (Wes Anderson, Skyfall) with the oversight of the late icon's daughter, Adria Petty, the collection pulls from across various realms and seasons of music to create a full picture of Petty's impressive catalogue.
Artists lending their talents to the project include: Dierks Bentley, Brothers Osborne, Luke Combs, Steve Earle, Wynonna Judd, Lady A, Willie Nelson, Dolly Parton, Carly Pearce, Thomas Rhettt, George Strait, Chris Stapleton, Lainey Wilson and many more.
True to the originals, true to what those songs could be, Petty Country, like Traveling Wilburys, shows the vast influence and reach of the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame inductee and highlights the previously unseen breadth and Country reach of Petty's songs.
