Trisha Yearwood to tour in February


As three-time Grammy Award winner Trisha Yearwood celebrates the release of her first independent album, Heaven, Heartache and the Power of Love (Big Machine Records), she has confirmed a limited number of tour dates beginning February 9th 2008 in Austin, TX.
Amidst appearances in November on The Today Show, The View, Fox & Friends, Emeril’s Thanksgiving Special and more, one of the most enduring female names in country music is again earning accolades.
USA TODAY claims Heaven, Heartache & the Power of Love “delivers everything its title promises and then some.”
PEOPLE MAGAZINE says Yearwood “infuses each tale with her pitch-perfect delivery,” and The BOSTON GLOBE writes, “her powerful, throaty voice, still singing primarily about matters of the heart, has never sounded better than on this strong batch of modern country.”
The FORT WORTH STAR TELEGRAM states, “Yearwood's 13th studio album glows with an easy charm…Trisha, like other first-name-only Nashville icons, is simply one of the best at what she does.”
Heaven, Heartache & the Power of Love celebrates the elation that radiates when head, heart, and home are happy…and as Yearwood’s songs are known to do…beautifully laments the heartbreak when it all slips away. On the album’s uptempo title-track, Trisha practically shouts out for an AMEN! when she sasses, “The preacher says when your time is up you take a chariot to the Lord…well I’m hopin’ my chariot is a torch-red Thunderbird Ford.” There are vulnerable ballads as well, such as “Nothin’ Bout Memphis,” and “Let The Wind Chase You” (with Keith Urban), and even a nod to the traditional, with “Cowboys Are My Weakness.”
