Hillbilly Goddess delivers on the promise of 2006's A Little Girl--A Big Four-Lane with a confident collection of sassy barnburners and heart-rending ballads, all delivered with intense feeling, gorgeous tone and unbridled exuberance. Featuring stellar support from producer Carl Jackson, duet partner Bradley Walker, J.D. Crowe, members of Ricky Skaggs and Kentucky Thunder, Blue Highway, The Dan Tyminski Band and The Infamous Stringdusters, Hillbilly Goddess is a major step forward from one of the great new voices in American music: Alecia Nugent.
