UK artist Tim Prottey-Jones and American artist Jessica Lynn come together to perform Achy Breaky Heart, out everywhere today here.
Two Country stars from the UK and USA have come together to put their own dark & brooding spin on the Billy Ray Cyrus smash hit “Achy Breaky Heart”. Tim Prottey-Jones & Jessica Lynn have joined forces to turn the song on its head & created a version that plays on the tumultuous relationship depicted in the lyrics, resulting in a gothic tale perfect for the Halloween season. This is the first release from Tim in an upcoming series of reimagined 90’s covers done in his own inimitable alt-country/Americana style that has always been known to experiment with the genre.
“I’m so excited to start unveiling this 90’s cover project, and what better way to start than with Achy Breaky Heart and with Jessica Lynn! She is such a dynamic performer and having played some shows on her last UK tour, I knew we needed to record a duet together. I’ve loved being able to strip the song back to its lyric & to almost start over with the track musically, giving it a darker edge and an intimacy with the 2 voices. I think people are going to be pleasantly shocked when they hear this!” – Tim Prottey-Jones
