The Music of George Jones & Tammy Wynette by Alyssa and Wayne Brewer
A tribute to George Jones & Tammy Wynette
When youthful passion and timeless songs intersect, its a creative crossroads where everything old seems new again. Thats definitely the case with husband and wife country duo Alyssa & Wayne Brewers new album Alyssa and Wayne Sing George and Tammy, due for release on Friday, September 15.
Wayne Brewer, a sixth-generation musician well-known for his work with Gary Brewer & The Kentucky Ramblers, and his talented wife Alyssa teamed to salute country legends George Jones and Tammy Wynette. The Brewers debut album finds the couple covering such well known classics as the first single, Golden Ring and Were Gonna Hold On in addition to lesser known gems like Rosie Bokay.
Wayne and Alyssa approached the project with equal amounts of unbridled enthusiasm and humble trepidation. We committed and agreed to do our debut release as a tribute to the two best country singers of all time. It was a major undertaking, Wayne recalls. We did all these in the original keys that George and Tammy cut them in, except I did Rosie Bokay as a nod to Bobby Osborne, who cut it up a key high. All the rest of the songs are in the original keys, which I thought was important.
Married since 2015, Wayne says recording a duet album has been a goal since he and Alyssa began dating, but other career demands kept them busy. Wayne not only performs with the Ramblers, but is also CEO of SGM (Stretch Grass Music) and Alyssa serves as COO of the label. Eventually, the couple found time to get in the studio and recorded the Townes Van Zandt classic If I Needed You, a song they had sung to each other at their wedding. The combination of Waynes earnest approach and Alyssas achingly vulnerable vocals earned them instant fans.
