My favourites are beginning to shine through but the whole album is pretty solid.

I wonder if they'll attempt to push anything to radio. Sales were decently good.

Maybe AAA radio.
I wonder if there are plans to tour it? Brandi just sold out Madison Square Garden and Maren is also on tour now I believe. Not sure about the others. I could see them playing the festival circuit next summer but until then, I’m thinking they might ride it out on reviews and word of mouth.

I can't imagine this project being promoted to country radio, considering Maren Morris has her own solo thing going strong right now. Maybe Triple A can give them some spins as Rose "Payola" Nylund suggested though. Everything about this release definitely seems side project and not tailored for radio, so I doubt they do anything major with it, like what we see with Pistol Annies releases. |

I know it won't ever happen, but I really want "Crowded Table" to be a hit on country. There's just something about that track that takes me back to my childhood and growing up on all the country classics my family exposed me to.  |

I just want a cheesy performance of If She Ever Leaves me at the CMAs.

I could swear that I read they are sending "Redesigning Women" to radio this month. I had thought it was odd that they were waiting till after the album release to do it. I can't for the life of me remember where I read that though.

I can't for the life of me remember where I read that though. I read the same article too where it said "Redesigning Women" was the lead single to be sent to radio in September. I also don't remember where I read it, but it was one of the many articles I read around the release of the album. |

Loose Change would be a smash if there was justice.
Also, If She Ever Leaves Me randomly gets trapped in my head.

Yeah I read that Redesigning Women was gonna be sent to radio over the next few weeks! I’m pretty sure they’ve announced a few tour dates too? Maybe I was imagining that?
I do think when they all have the time to get together, there’s gonna be a big push for this! The reviews are great and any article I’ve read has been positive! They all seem to be really behind this, so I really do think we haven’t seen everything yet!
Just because this isn’t what radio plays, doesn’t mean it isn’t radio friendly! Pretty much everything on here would sound great on the radio! It just most likely won’t get played because of how sexist/homophobic Country radio is!
I would bet my life that this is absolutely gonna clean up at the Grammys!! Will it be nominated in 2020 or 2021? Whichever, it doesn’t matter! It’s that type of album! Brandi is basically a Grammy darling, and this album will get every nomination going! It’ll clean up at the country categories and I wouldn’t be one bit surprised if they got all 4 main categories.

It missed the cut-off for the upcoming Grammys, so it'll have to wait until 2021, but yeah, I imagine this album getting plenty of love there given Brandi's association with it. |

A very 'authentic' body of work filled with a lot of traditional goodness. "Loose Change" and "Wheels of Laredo" are probably my two favorites, what incredible songs! "My Name Can't Be Mama" is also another standout track! Excellent song.

Brandi hasn’t been a Grammy darling though. Sure her last album got a lot of attention but I think that had more to do with who produced the album tbh. She’s someone I’ve long thought should be a Grammy darling but only 2 of her 7 albums ever got attention, and mostly her most recent. Not that Brandi won’t help but Maren and Dave Cobbs involvement make me think instant Grammy favourite. |

Three of the songs came out beforehand so there could be some Grammy love with some of the song categories. |

[/quote] Maybe not long-term, but she really seems to have had her breakthrough with her last album, which is more what I was referring to. I can see her being a Grammy darling from her going forward. With the critical acclaim she got from her last album and now everyone wanting to work with her -- she's had tons of recent writing credits, featured vocals on albums, produced Tanya's comeback record, etc. -- I think she's going to be a critical darling from now on. |

As much as I want them to succeed, I'd rather they sent their singles to Americana because that's where they stand a better chance of winning anything or even getting played.
