QUICK TAKES - July 29, 2009
Associated Press
“Redneck Woman” Gretchen Wilson and her longtime record label, Sony Music Nashville, have parted.
Sony announced the split Tuesday, describing it as a mutual decision.
Wilson shot to fame with her 2004 smash “Redneck Woman.” Her debut album, “Here for the Party,” sold 5 million copies.
Her next two albums for Sony -- 2005’s “All Jacked Up” and 2007’s “One of the Boys” -- reached No. 1 but didn’t sell nearly as well as her debut and produced only one Top 10 single between them.
