On ‘Little Miss Twain,’ Shania Twain Reflects on Her Humble Beginnings and Her Late Mother
Twain says her new album looks back on a career that began at 8, reached its first Top 10 hit at 30 and paused for 15 years.
- Shania Twain releases her new album 'Little Miss Twain' this Friday, covering her life from age eight through her late-20s when she signed her major label record deal.
- As a child, Twain performed in smoky bars in Northern Ontario, singing for miners, lumberjacks, and hunters after midnight because she was underage, an experience she describes as 'character building.'
- The title track honors Twain's mother, who died when she was 22, and features a duet with Tanya Tucker. Twain reflects on her mother being 'my manager and my agent, my driver and my coach.'
- Following vocal surgery for nerve damage, Twain embraces a gravelly tone while incorporating Motown and rock influences. Collaborators include Josh Homme and Ronnie Wood on the eclectic collection.
- Twain hopes listeners gain 'a sense and a feeling of the atmosphere' that shaped her early years, viewing this collection as the 'missing chapter' of her identity and artistic journey.
