Yearwood covers Frank

Monday, November 12, 2018 – Trisha Yearwood is covering Frank Sinatra.

Yearwood announced she would release a covers disc, "Let's Be Frank" in December.

Let's Be Frank, and it will feature a collection of the singer's favorite songs by Frank Sinatra.

"I've been wanting to make this record for 20 years!" Yearwood, said to People. "I have always loved standards, and nobody sings them better than Sinatra. I'm honored to get the chance to pay tribute to him and the songwriters in these timeless classics."

Yearwood recorded the disc with an orchestra at the Capitol Records building in Hollywood using Sinatra's microphone and sitting on the same stool where he sat while cutting the originals.

"Let's Be Frank" will be available Dec. 20 exclusively at Williams-Sonoma and available everywhere in February next year.

There are the upbeat ("XXXs and OOO's" and "Heaven, ...
CD review - Heaven, Heartache & the Power of Love The record label may have changed for Trisha Yearwood, but one thing that did not is her powerful voice. Yes, she can turn it on, demonstrating the depth of feeling (the uptempo "They Call It Falling for a Reason" by Jim Collins and Matraca Berg, who produced the song), but she is also not a Johnny one note either by overdoing it.
