SNEEK PEEK: SARA EVANS with REO Speedwagon, Ridin’ the Storm Out (From CMT Crossroads)

It's Labor Day Weekend, so lets ROCK!! REO Speedwagon & Sara Evans have teamed up for a Crossroads version of "Ridin' The Storm Out".

Midwestern Ties....
Growing up on her family's Missouri farm, Sara Evans made her singing debut with the family band at five years old. Around the same time, in 1976, lllinois-based REO Speedwagon released their sixth album, which marked the return to the group for singer Kevin Cronin, after a four-year absence. Both acts have gone on to multi-platinum-selling albums, Number One hits and sold-out tours.

Written by REO guitarist Gary Richrath, "Ridin' the Storm Out" was the title track to the band's 1973 LP. The tune was inspired by the band's first trip to Boulder, Colorado, when they experienced the Rocky Mountains for the first time.
