Wanda Jackson, Elle King and Joan Jett collaborate on ‘Two Shots’ out now, ahead of the release of Jackson’s album Encore out on 20th August.
Three generations of ladies who have perfected core-shaking Rock delivered with sass straight up will release “Two Shots” on Friday. Genre-blending icon WANDA JACKSON joins fellow Rock & Roll Hall of Famer JOAN JETT and Grammy nominated ELLE KING for a saccharine stomp with full-tilt femme power.
“One of the cutest songs I have ever recorded is this song from my forthcoming album,” expresses Wanda. “’Two Shots’ was written for me by my sweet friend Elle King. We met in Nashville for a video shoot and found out she was a real fan of mine. She’s such a live-wire and fun to be with. Working with her was so comfortable and easy. We were lucky enough that both Elle and Joan Jett wanted to sing on this one with me. Joan does a beautiful job on the harmony and her voice really brightens the song. I love ‘Two Shots’ and I think you will too.”
Jett continues, “Two Shots is a very cleverly written song, written for Wanda by Elle King. It was great being in the studio with Elle and Wanda,” says Jett.
“This collaboration was a dream come true. Wanda Jackson and Joan Jett have been absolute heroes of mine. I feel so lucky to have been a part of this song and this record,” shares Elle, who also penned the song with David Ryan Harris.
A combination of dynamic vocals roars throughout, though, the lyrics alone will make anyone tremble:
If you’re giving up my loving
If you plan on slipping out
I’ll smash all of your windows
I’ll set fire to your house
But not before I take
All of the money that you thought
I’d never find in the binding
Of the Bible that I bought
You’ll wish and pray…
