“Honky Tonk Women” and men alike will present unique country-influenced Rolling Stones covers on Stoned Cold Country. The compilation, out March 17th via This Is Hit, includes contributions from Zac Brown Band, Maren Morris, Marcus King, and many more.
Stoned Cold Country arrives as the Stones prepare for their 60th anniversary. The 14-track collection spans the group’s golden years and touches on its myriad genre pursuits, from the classic Delta blues-inspired “(I Can’t Get No) Satisfaction” to the stadium rock sing-along “Shine A Light”. The album makes sure to highlight the Stones’ Americana influences with Morris’ take on “Dead Flowers” and Little Big Town‘s “Wild Horses”, among others.
“This album is Country Music’s thank you to The Rolling Stones for 60 years of inspiration and providing the soundtrack of our lives,” the album’s producer Robert Deaton said. “While recording the record, I was reminded that this is a showcase and spotlight on the best we have to offer as a genre. From our artists to all of the musicians that played on the record, we boldly state that Country Music is second to none when it comes to artists of integrity and creativity.”
