Anna Wilson & Monty Powell

Anna Wilson's revolutionary new album, Countrypolitan Duets, creates a magical union of country, jazz and pop by effortlessly blending the genres to form a fresh but timeless new sound that pays homage to Nashville's musical roots.

"I would describe it as country music and jazz music shaking hands because it's a real fusion of two great American musical art forms," Anna says. But that modest description is an understatement, according to noted author/music historian Robert K. Oermann, who says, "Top vocalist Anna Wilson has made the first album that fully marries jazz to country music... Anna Wilson is not just 'shaking hands' with two Nashville traditions. She is embracing them both. Brilliantly."
