You know you’re doing something right when Miranda Lambert and Little Big Town handpick you as the opener for their Bandwagon Tour, right? Well, that is exactly what happened to Tenille Townes this summer.

Tenille is talented, intelligent and thoughtful beyond her years. I really think you’re going to love this one. Enjoy!
