GRAMMY AWARD-WINNING SINGER
PATTY LOVELESS
JOINS SAGUARO ROAD RECORDS
TO RELEASE 19TH CD
Sleepless Nights The Traditional Country Soul of Patty Loveless debuts September 9 Nashville, Tenn.
- For those aching to hear the pure, lonesome tenor from the Appalachian siren of modern country, the wait isover. With her first release in three years, Patty Loveless is back with her19th CD on a new label, Saguaro Road Records, formed in June 2008 by Direct Holdings Americas Inc. Direct Holdings also markets and sells audio and video entertainment products under the Time Life brand, which it uses underlicense from Time Warner Inc.

This albumof classics celebrates the many facets of heartache that make country music the diary of the common man.
Emory and I were talking over dinner about recapturing some of these moments from my youth, Loveless explains, because I want to inspire and remind people of what country is made of. It takes me back especially to mybrother, Roger, and my sister, Dottie, and the music they loved.
Its a little bit of a history lesson, but I think once you hear the songs,the stories ... youre going to be drawn to it, continues Loveless. People lived a little differently then, but at the same time, theres a lot more in common [with today] than people would think. Hailed by People magazine asequal parts Linda Ronstadt and Patsy Cline when her two-million-selling Only What I Feel was released, Loveless has always believed in honoring her upbringing. Born in rural eastern Kentucky to a coal mining father who loved bluegrass, Patty followed her roots all the way to the Opry stage afterfirst catching the ear of Porter Wagoner when she was only 13. She released
her self-titled debut in 1987 and has never looked back.
A CMA Female Vocalist and Album of the Year winner, Loveless has consistently set a standard for what country music should be with platinum CDs and chart-topping songs like You Dont Even Know Who I Am and How Can I Help You Say Goodbye. As Time magazine once noted, Her songs catalog every sin a man can commit,every pain a woman can bear. If you turn on the radio and hear a strongheart breaking, chances are its the one in that plangent Loveless voice...
