Could We Get Any Closer? is Jim Lauderdale's long awaited follow-up to his Grammy award winning album Bluegrass Diaries. Featuring a new song written with Robert Hunter and collaborations with Shawn Camp, Candace Randolph and Odie Blackmon. Produced by Randy Kohrs.
USA Today says when artists "want to get back to their roots, they often turn toward Jim Lauderdale, a singer songwriter whose talent for lyrical and melodic twists is practically unparalleled in Nashville."
These artists have included Ralph Stanley, George Strait and Patty Loveless. Along with a Grammy, his collaborations have had resulted in plenty of hit songs with artists like George Strait, Dixie Chicks, Patty Loveless and Mark Chesnutt. His 1990s recordings for Warner Bros., Atlantic and RCA garnered loads of critical acclaim and a loyal cult following, but working with independent labels has given him the creative freedom to make music that stirs his passions.
