Danielia Cotton – Charley’s Pride: A Tribute to Black Country Music
Today, multi-hyphenate Americana/Soul/Rock artist Danielia Cotton releases her latest EP, Charley’s Pride: A Tribute to Black Country Music.
Available now through Cottontown LLC with Symphonic distribution, the record is a powerful celebration of Black country music, paying tribute to the legacy of Charley Pride and the often-overlooked contributions of Black artists in the genre. Through five soul-stirring tracks, Cotton creates a body of work that serves as a heartfelt homage to family, heritage, and the enduring impact of pioneers like Pride, who paved the way for future generations in country music. Produced, engineered, and mixed by GRAMMY®-nominated Marc Copely at Casa Copely Recording, and co-produced by Cotton herself, Charley’s Pride: A Tribute to Black Country Music features an all-star lineup of musicians, including Aaron Comess (Spin Doctors), Andy Hess (Gov’t Mule, Black Crowes), and Brian Mitchell (Bob Dylan, BB King, Dolly Parton.)
Arriving today with the EP release is “Bring Out The Country (In Me),” a brand new original single.
Penned by Cotton herself and producer Marc Copely, “Bring Out The Country In Me” stands out as a powerhouse track that adds a bold, contemporary edge to the EP, showcasing Cotton’s signature raw, unfiltered grit while preserving the heart and soul of country music. Cotton shares, “Coming to New York City from a small town, is a serious transition. What surprised me was how much of the small town ways I didn’t lose. The big city kinda made me more me than ever. I’m kinda proud of that.”
