Honky Tonk Heroes

FROM THE PUBLISHER

Rubenstein has returned to today's Nashville to document a new crop of trendsetters and tunesmiths. She has revisited some favorite folk - pulling a Mount Rushmore-like gaze from Johnny Cash and catching a gun-totin' Hank Williams, Jr. on his way to the hunt - but has primarily focused on new faces. She has applied her special vision to portray these stars in a new light: Martina McBride playing peekaboo with her own image; a very sexy Tanya Tucker outrageously posing; the new old-timers, BR5-49, making their debut as the ultimate bar band; LeAnn Rhimes in both playful and come-hither moods; Sawyer Brown reflecting on their own image; Mark Chesnutt blowing bubbles; Wynonna posing as a silent-film goddess; Emmylou Harris caught in a net...each image unique, each memorable, each definitive. The book is introduced by Billboard's Nashville correspondent and noted music authority Chet Flippo, who places Rubenstein's photographs and the music itself in a historical context.
