The Neon Cowgirl, towering over Broadway in Nashville like the patron saint of heartbreak, watched Tami Neilson grow up. Basking in her glow, Tami walked wide-eyed into the Ryman Auditorium as a 16-year-old – and she dreamt of taking her place on that stage ever since.

After spending half a year on a coast-to-coast tour of North America with her young family in a 40-foot motorhome, Tami returned to New Zealand to record a collection of songs inspired by her pilgrimage. This lovelorn letter written on 4 wheels over blacktop became “Neon Cowgirl”. From the barnburner Borrow My Boots- a celebration of sisterhood written and performed with Ashley McBryde and Shelly Fairchild featuring guitar-prodigy Grace Bowers – to the dreamy duet of the title track featuring Neil Finn, to Tami’s soaring ode to Roy Orbison “Foolish Heart” and the smoky “You’re Gonna Fall” recorded with JD McPherson, Neon Cowgirl leaves no emotion unexamined, no stone unturned.
