Nashville’s profile has been raised by the TV show of the same name and country music is enjoying a revival, but Rose is careful to draw a distinction between the poppier country getting mainstream radio play and classic country music. “Everything’s booming - it’s on all the top 10 lists of the hottest cities in the U.S.” “Nashville is just screaming hot right now,” Rose said, speaking to Reuters on the phone from country music’s spiritual home. Rose has a string of Americana albums under her belt but her new record "Be Many Gone" has a more classic country feel, inspired by years of honing her craft in Nashville's honky-tonks with side-project The Silver Threads.
