In Country Song serves as a definitive showcase of the unique intersection between the rugged soul of the Scottish Highlands and the timeless storytelling of Nashville. This album is a curated gathering of voices, bringing together a collective of artists who have mastered the art of the Country ballad while maintaining their distinct Northern character.
