SHELBY LYNNE RETURNS WITH NEW SONG “BUT I AIN’T” 

Story: Ralph Greco, Jr.

“But I Ain’t,” the new song from GRAMMY Award-winning singer, songwriter and musician Shelby Lynne, is out today on Monument Records (listen/share
HERE). A bridge between her past and future work, “But I Ain’t” was produced by Lynne, Karen Fairchild, Ashley Monroe and Gena Johnson and interpolates 
“Dreamsome,” a standout track from her landmark record, I Am Shelby Lynne, which just celebrated its 25th anniversary.

Reflecting on the song, Lynne shares, “A taste of old. A big shot of new. For you. For us.”

In honor of the I Am Shelby Lynne anniversary, a special reissue of the album was released earlier this month via Monument Records. Stream/purchase HERE and pre-order limited edition vinyl HERE. In conjunction with the milestone, the official music videos for album tracks “Gotta Get Back” and “Your Lies” are also now available online for the first time, after debuting on television 25 years ago.

Since her 1989 debut, Lynne has established herself as “one of her generation’s most passionate and determined voices” (American Songwriter). In addition to releasing sixteen studio albums, Lynne has also been named Top New Female Vocalist at the 26th Annual ACM Awards, been featured in numerous movies and TV shows (including Golden Globe-winning film, Walk The Line) and performed alongside artists such as Willie Nelson, Sheryl Crow, Kris Kristofferson, Lyle Lovett, her sister Allison Moorer and many more.

Ralph Greco, Jr. is the devilishly clever nom de plume of professional writer/musician Ralph Greco who lives in the wilds of suburban New Jersey. He is also a podcast co-host, but as everyone has a podcast these days, this fact is of very little consequence.Ralph can be reached by writing ralphiedawriter@gmail.com
