Cyndi Lauper
Cyndi Lauper will bring her musical Detour to Nashville’s Ryman Auditorium on May 9, when she launches her 27-city trek across the United States and Europe. Lauper’s country album Detour, which releases May 6, includes her renditions of several classic tunes from the 40s, 50s, and 60s. Detour features guest appearances from Vince Gill, Emmylou Harris, Alison Krauss, and Willie Nelson. Lauper recorded the album in Nashville with many of the city’s top session players.
“There’s something so very magical about the Ryman and all the rich history there. Just to think it’s the same stage where Wanda Jackson and Patsy Cline performed so long ago and here I am singing songs they made famous on this record – it’s such an honor,” Lauper said.
Lauper recently visited MusicRow to offer a preview of her album.
