艺人介绍

小简介

1997年,Sara Evans推出了她的首张专辑“Three Chords & The Truth”,这张专辑虽然收到了众口交赞,但销量并不如人意,但这并没有使Sara放弃对乡村歌曲的信心,反而使她更加努力。

她的嗓音极为舒畅,令人难以置信,而这没有成为Sara向人炫耀的资本,她还是那么谦逊、认真的吸取各家所长。在听过前辈艺人Lorette Lynn和Tammy wynett的歌曲后,Evans开始尝试着将传统的乡村旋律与流行风格相结合,如新专辑中的“Every Little Kiss”,听上去就象是Trisha Yearwood的歌曲。Paul Warley的制作为专辑添了不少新意,他将传统小提琴与军鼓的节奏融合在一起作为歌曲的开头部分,又以富有迷幻色彩的弦乐结束,不知道歌迷们听了以后,会有什么样的感觉。

新专辑中,Sara自己也写了很多上乘佳作,如描述华尔兹舞的伤感歌谣“I Learned That From You”,和乡村摇滚歌曲“I Keep Looking”。Evan和Edward McCain合唱的歌曲“I Could Not Ask For More”,更是流行乐谈的王牌制作人Diane Warren的又一力做。相信这张专辑会使歌迷们感受到传统、纯朴的乡村音乐灵魂

A female country traditionalist during a time when they were quite rare around Nashville, Sara Evans gained her RCA contract in 1996 after her rendition of Buck Owens' perennial chestnut "I've Got a Tiger by the Tail" impressed its songwriter, Harlan Howard, so much he considered it his bound duty to help her. While growing up poor in rural Missouri, Evans performed with her family's band -- at the age of four -- and even recorded in Nashville several years later.

She eventually married and moved to Oregon in 1992, but continued to perform, as Sara Evans & North Santiam. The group opened for Willie Nelson and Tim McGraw, among others, but Evans eventually returned to Nashville to try to remake her career. There she impressed Howard enough to recommend her to RCA executives, who connected her with producer Pete Anderson (a veteran of many albums by Dwight Yoakam). After her debut album, Three Chords & the Truth, was released in July 1997, Evans earned a special honor by being hand-picked by George Jones to open a special show in Nashville. No Place That Far followed a year later, and in 2000 she resurfaced with Born to Fly. The title track was a big hit for Evans, and the album eventually peaked in the Top Ten of Billboard's country charts. She followed that up with 2003's Restless, and returned in 2005 with the Top Ten hit Real Fine Place.
