Terri Clark On Tour

Posted on by

Terri Clark embarks on a 6 week Canadian concert tour! Terri Clark has booked 22 different cities over the next six weeks, and they’ll all be in Canada. When asked about why she’s staying to our north this time, the Canadian native answers “For so many years, my focus has been on the states and it makes sense if you’re on an American label. I love the U.S. very much — and it’s a big part of who I am — but I also miss my homeland. I think as much coming back to myself musically and really investing in all the influences who shaped me, there’s a strong sense of the kind of girl who grew up in a place where believing you could grow up, go to Nashville and become a country singer that can be felt on this record.” Terri Clarks’s latest CD, “The Long Way Home,” will be available in U.S. stores starting today (10/20). The album was entirely self-financed and self-produced.
