Shania Twain Tells Apple Music About Looking Up To Wynonna Judd…
I was following The Judds so closely when they came out because I was yet to come out and Wynonna being in she’s a similar age to me. And I guess I would say I looked up to her and I was inspired by her. I mean, incredible vocalist and her and her mom were just beautiful together vocally. People that I would consider salt of the earth, honest, straightforward, they’re very loving, they’re fun, and just really easy to get to know. And you know what? I’m friends with Wynonna, man. I mean her and I text regularly checking up on each other, making sure we’re all doing okay. Talk about her kids. Talk about what’s growing in the garden, flowers. We send pictures to each other of what we’re picking and stuff. She likes to grow vegetables and things like that. So she’s always pulling up stuff from her garden and I’m often just taking photos of my bouquets from my garden and we send them to each other. It’s kind of fun.
Shania Twain Tells Apple Music About Her Friendship with Nick Jonas and Hints At Future Potential Collab…
If you’re a Jonas Brother, you must feel cool all the time. Right? Like I would think so. Anyway, I don’t know, but they are cool. Now I would consider Nick Jonas, a friend of mine. He is a sweetheart, and you know, we’ve crossed paths a couple of times. We’ve done some things together, musically, and you know, it’s just a fun, cool friendship that we’ve got, and I look forward to doing more together. So Nick, I will be calling out to you soon so we can get together and make some more music. How about that? That would be so cool, wouldn’t it?
Shania Twain Tells Apple Music About HAIM…
This family band is fabulous. It’s a fabulous family band. I love these guys. These girls are superb musicians and they are excellent songwriters. Talented show women and great singers with a beautiful, beautiful family blend. I was so flattered to be on their radio show. They also have an Apple Music radio show, which is so cool. We chatted and had a few great laughs. Just talked music and reminded each other how much we wanted to get together and make music together. And we will do that.
Shania Twain Tells Apple Music About The Everly Brothers’ Harmonies…
My mother’s favorite vocal group were the Everly Brothers. So the Everly Brothers were Don and Phil and their harmonies are just so famous and I’ve never, ever heard two voices blend more beautifully than the Everly Brothers, I really mean that.
