Brandy Clark to release her third solo studio album 'Your Life is a Record' on March 3

Brandy Clark will release her third solo album, titled ‘Your Life is a Record’, on March 3, which will be her first album in almost four years. You can pre-order it here.
Clark’s last record, ‘Big Day in a Small Town’ was released in June 2016 and people can already get a taster for the new record as lead single Who You Thought I Was is out now.
The song itself is more than a lead single as Clark will be touring the record on the the ‘Who You Thought I Was Tour’ and speaking about the song, Clark said that it came from something John Prine at the US Americana Awards.
“The seed of the song came from something that John Prine said a couple of years ago at the Americana Awards,” Clark said. “He walked out onstage at the Ryman and everyone stood up and clapped for what felt like five minutes. When everyone sat down, he said with a little laugh, ‘Well, I’m John Prine, but I’d like to go back to being who you thought I was.’ Man…that hit me.
“The songwriter in me instantly knew it was a song and the heart in me knew it was how I had felt in my own life many times. I mean who of us hasn’t let somebody down or wanted to be the version of ourselves that someone who loved us thought we were?”
As for the album, Jay Joyce produced ‘Your Life is a Record’ and Clark has also called upon some special guests to make appearances on the record, with Randy Newman appearing on Bigger Boat and guitarist Josh Osborne on Bad Car.
Brandy Clark will also be in the UK over the next week, as she will be presenting at the UK Americana Awards on January 30, which will then be followed by a date at Sage in Gateshead on January 31 and then St. Luke’s in Glasgow on February 1 as part of Celtic Connections.
