Up-and-coming country singer Shawna Russell of Okemah is seeing some success since the release of her rollicking second single, "Should've Been Born With Wheels." Apparently, the buzz from her debut CD "Goddess" has made its way across the Atlantic into France.
According to a news release, the September issue of France's most popular country music magazine, Dreamwest, includes a two-page spread dedicated to Russell. In it, writer and artistic director Tony Taylor has named her "The Goddess of Country Rock."
"Due to the groundswell of attention for her music, Dreamwest Publisher Patrick Sidoun has ordered copies of Russell's 'Goddess' CD to be placed for sale in over 40 affiliated "Western Lifestyle" stores there - and singles of 'Should've Been Born With Wheels' to be serviced to all country radio outlets throughout France," the release goes on to say.
