Nancy Apple - The Cadillac Cowgirl: High On The Hog

A Memphis DJ, an actress, a radio presenter, a CD sleeve designer alongside being a pretty darn good all round musician and songwriter, Nancy Apple has established a massive cult following in her native Memphis for her bright and breezy honky-tonk that never falls into the trap of becoming kitsch.

Nancy Apple's 1995 recording The Cadillac Cowgirl: High On The Hog blends Patsy Cline with Big Mama Thornton, and throws in some of the Great Hank and a bit of Dwight Yoakam for a show-stopping collection of country music that veers between happy-hour beer-joint music and closing time heartbreakers.
