Clark has no words for Grammy news
"This is just amazing," Clark said. "I really don't have the words for it. To see '12 Stories' in the middle of all of those great albums and artists is a dream come true." Clark is traveling to Albuquerque, N.M. where she will perform tomorrow night at the Isleta Resort and Casino Showroom along with Lee Ann Womack.
Later in the day, upon learning of her New Artist of the Year nomination, Clark said, "I am almost speechless. This just doesn't seem real. I could never have imagined the journey my team and I have been on since '12 Stories' was released last year. I have received such support from the fans, the critics, the industry, and my fellow artists and songwriters. I am beyond thankful to be included in this category with my fellow nominees."
"12 Stories" was released in 2013 on independent label Slate Creek Records. She has since signed with Warner.
Clark won the 2014 CMA Song of the Year Award for co-writing the Kacey Musgraves hit "Follow Your Arrow," signed with Warner in November. She has toured with artists including Eric Church and Jennifer Nettles, opened for Loretta Lynn at the historic Ryman Auditorium in Nashville and will tour with Alan Jackson on his "25th Anniversary Tour" in 2015.
Clark has co-written Miranda Lambert's number one hit "Mama's Broken Heart," The Band Perry's number one hit "Better Dig Two," Toby Keith's current single "Drunk Americans," and songs recorded by Sheryl Crow, Reba McEntire, Craig Morgan, Kacey Musgraves, LeAnn Rimes, Darius Rucker, Keith Urban and Gretchen Wilson.

CD reviews for Brandy Clark
The purpose for 'deluxe editions' of albums is not entirely clear, except perhaps to breathe new life into an aging album. This marketing ploy is especially curious in the case of Brandy Clark's "Your Life is a Record." After all, this already is a fully satisfying album, so why the seconds? However, more Brandy Clark is never a bad thing, so we'll take it.
This new edition includes a couple of live versions of album songs. Both "Who You Thought I Was" and ...
Whenever Brandy Clark's "Your Life is a Record" is described as the work of a smart, female singer/songwriter - an inevitable characterization - you may immediately picture 11 sophisticated pop songs. And make no mistake about it; this music is sophisticated - sophisticated enough, in fact, to attract pop songwriter extraordinaire Randy Newman for a duet on "Bigger Boat." Surprisingly, though, much of the music contained within is also more organic than one might have ...
There are two components to Brandy Clark. First is her songwriting, which gained her much street cred, penning songs for the likes of Miranda Lambert ("Mama's Broken Heart" with Kacey Musgraves and Shane McAnally), The Band Perry ("Better Dig Two"), Keith Urban, Reba McEntire and a slew for Musgraves and Jennifer Nettles.
