10th anniversary reimagining for Sunny Sweeney’s “Provoked” and UK tour announced

Sunny Sweeney, the country and americana singer-songwriter, who hails from Texas but is currently based in Nashville, is no stranger to music fans this side of the Atlantic.  Since the impact of her debut in 2006 with the acclaimed “Heartbreaker’s Hall of Fame” and attendant radio coverage from Whisperin’ Bob Harris amongst others her progress has been followed with interest. Sweeney has just announced the 10th-anniversary release of her album “Provoked”. With a new name “Still Provoked”, the record will be out on 30th August 2024 via Thirty Tigers and will be available for the very first time on vinyl.

“Still Provoked” features reimagined versions of all 13 tracks on the original album plus two new, previously unheard songs: ‘My Own Lane’ and a cover of Bob Dylan’s ‘To Be Alone With You’. The 15-track release will be available on digital, CD and as a limited-edition double LP.  You can pre-save / pre-order it here. The first single, ‘My Own Lane’ – a co-write with Natalie Hemby – has been released and you can listen to it below.
