McKenna drops "The Town In Your Heart" video
Filmed at Nashville's RCA Studio A, the video features McKenna alongside frequent collaborator, Hillary Lindsey.
Written by McKenna, Dustin Christensen and Jessie Jo Dillon, McKenna said, "Losing someone you love is impossibly hard. I believe the only way to move forward in grief is to keep the people we've lost right with us. Right in our chest. Dustin Christensen, Jessie Jo Dillon, and I wrote this song about losing someone, about keeping them in a different way and about hoping they keep us too."
"The Town In Your Heart" is from McKenna's "1988" release, which came out in July via CN Records/Thirty Tigers. Produced by Dave Cobb (Brandi Carlile, Jason Isbell) and recorded at his studio in Savannah, Ga., "1988" is named for the year McKenna married her husband, Gene, and serves as a love letter to her family and lifelong friendships.

CD reviews for Lori McKenna
Seemingly in a blink, Lori McKenna has released her 12th album, "1988," named for the year she married her husband, Gene. Steady prolific output at about an album every other year, this is the fourth produced by Dave Cobb, the first call producer for Nashville singer-songwriters of McKenna's caliber.
The album rings a bit more electric than previous offerings as McKenna and Cobb sat across from each other in the same room, cutting the basic tracks live. McKenna confesses to going ...
Lori McKenna includes a song titled "Christmas Without Crying," which wonders lyrically if it's possible to make it all the way through the Christmas season without crying. It also begs the question: Is it possible to make it through a McKenna album (even just an EP) without shedding a few tears? (The answer is an emphatic 'No!') No, not even a Christmas album, which is a season that celebrates (we're told) the happiest time of the year. Then again, McKenna is nothing ...
Lori McKenna records should come with a warning label - this product may cause uncontrollable weeping. Every generation has their best songwriters, and this unassuming mom from Massachusetts happens to be one of them. It's the kind of talent that wins Best Country Song Grammys in streaks. She took the trophy home in 2016 for co-penning "Girl Crush". Then in 2017, she won again for "Humble and Kind" (which she wrote herself). Some of the other years, she was at least nominated. ...
