Description
Country Music Hall of Fame member Don Williams announced his retirement from performing last year, concluding an impressive five-decade career that includes two CMA Awards, two ACM Awards and 17 No. 1 hits. In honor of his legendary career, Williams' longtime producer and friend Garth Fundis has produced a tribute album, Gentle Giants: The Songs of Don Williams, featuring an all-star lineup of artists including Dierks Bentley, Garth Brooks, Brandy Clark, Jason Isbell & Amanda Shires, Alison Krauss, Lady Antebellum, Keb' Mo', Pistol Annies, John Prine, Chris and Morgane Stapleton and Trisha Yearwood.
"It has been my privilege to work frequently with Don through the years, and I'm proud to honor him with this new project," said Fundis. "All of the artists on the album have been huge Don Williams fans for years. It makes the entire project very personal and very meaningful."
"here's a fitting tribute album, coordinated by Don's longtime producer and friend Garth Fundis, which features an all-star lineup of artists, all of whom have been fans of Don's music for many years and who straddle the genre and specialise in their own right." fatea-records.co.uk
"Gentle Giants is in every way fantastic. The calibre of artists is second to none"- bulidingourownnashville.com
