Tara Thompson just wrapped up the CMT Next Women of Country Tour with Jennifer Nettles, Brandy Clark and Lindsay Ell, and it was everything she had hoped it would be and more. Thinking back to when she first got the news that she was going to be part of that tour, Tara says, “Man, when they first told me I got to be a part of the ‘CMT Next Women of Country’ I think for the first time in my life I might have been a little bit speechless. You know, I used to sing in the bars, so I’m used to singin’ Jennifer Nettles songs and Brandy Clark songs and when I met Lindsay Ell for the first time I just thought; Wow, that girl has so much talent …I’m just one blessed lucky girl.”
One great thing about the tour is that it allowed Tara to introduce her music, like her debut single, “Someone to Take Your Place,” to fans who may have come out to see one of the other women, but then discovered her on the tour as well.
