"I miss the road and my band immensely," explains Whitters. "The Live In Studio Sessions were a way for us to all regroup and play music together (safely social distancing, of course). With COVID-19 disrupting touring, we also saw this as an opportunity to deliver these songs in a live setting to fans. I hope it helps curb the ache of live music during this strange time."
Recently, Whitters was awarded the
AIMP Nashville Rising Artist-Writer of the Year as part of the 5th annual
Association of Independent Music Publishers (AIMP) Nashville Awards. The nod follows a string of accolades for Whitters’
THE DREAM, which was named one of “The Best Albums of 2020 (So Far)” by
American Songwriter and
Paste Magazine.
SPIN also marked “All The Cool Girls” on their list of “The 50 Best Songs of 2020 (So Far).”
In July, Whitters released the official video for "
Janice at the Hotel Bar," which was covered by
People,
Rolling Stone, and many more. The song, which was co-written with Lori McKenna, was highlighted by
Paste Magazine as one of "The 25 Best Songs of 2020 (So Far)."
In a feature in
Rolling Stone, Whitters announced a new partnership with
Big Loud Records /
Songs & Daughters – Nashville’s first-of-its-kind female-driven label formed by Big Loud Records and
BMI Songwriter of the Year (2019) Nicolle Galyon. Big Loud Records / Songs & Daughters will continue marketing and promotion of
THE DREAM, which was originally self-released via Whitters’ label
Pigasus Records.
