Little Big Town’s ‘Greatest Hits’ Hosts Two Surprise Duets
Little Big Town released their first-ever ever career-spanning Greatest Hits album today (8/9) via Capitol Records Nashville.
The release comes as part of Karen Fairchild, Kimberly Schlapman, Phillip Sweet, and Jimi Westbrook’s 25th anniversary celebration as the band Little Big Town.
Karen said of the album, “This Greatest Hits album is all about reflecting on some of the songs that have meant the most to us throughout the band’s incredible journey. These last 25 years have been an absolute whirlwind, and we’re so thankful to have our fans along for the ride – this album is truly a love letter to them.”
Notably, the group enlisted longtime friend Miranda Lambert for a duet on the 2010 platinum smash “Little White Church.” It retains all of the magic of the original while also giving Lambert the latitude to add her instantly recognizable touch to the track. It proudly upholds a tradition of collaboration with Little Big Town dating back to 2014’s “Smokin’ and Drinkin’.”
The record also offers a handful of very special collaborations – including “Shut Up Train” featuring Kelsea Ballerini – merging the band’s past, present, and future.
Greatest Hits collects over two decades of chart-busting country smashes on one definitive body of work, ranging from the GRAMMY Award-winning “Pontoon,” “Boondocks,” and “Better Man” to massively influential anthems such as “Girl Crush.”
