The Duo, Raul Malo, Reba McEntire, Rob Ickes, Shelly Fairchild, Sonya Isaacs, The Fisk Jubilee Singers, Trey Hensley, Trisha Yearwood, and Wendy Moten – all intertwine their signature sound into the beloved music of The Judds, creating a powerful adulation to one of the most iconic duos in Country music.
All tracks from the album were developed by The Judds’ original producer and six-time Grammy award winner, Brent Maher outside of “Cry Myself to Sleep,” which was produced by four-time CMA winner Cactus Moser. Forty years after signing the mother daughter duo to RCA Records, Joe Galante now serves as the project’s executive producer and spearheaded the record into fruition alongside Renee Bell. Galante’s previous work with The Judds culminated in multiple accolades including: 6 multi-platinum studio albums, 5 Grammy awards, 9 CMA awards, 8 ACM awards, and an induction into the Country Music Hall of Fame.
“Mama He’s Crazy” featuring multi-award-winning artists, Dolly Parton and Lainey Wilson will serve as the focus track for the album and can be heard HERE.
