So how crazy is this: you are a brand-new country artist; you have the opportunity to have superstar Chris Stapleton appear on your album, but...you don't have him sing?
Alana Springsteen recently released her debut album, "Twenty Something: Figuring It Out" on which Chris Stapleton appears on the song "Ghost In My Guitar" - but his instantly recognizable voice is nowhere to be heard. Instead, it's Alana - and Chris' guitar.
The single dropped Friday, and Alana had this to say on Instagram: "(The song) is a duet between me and chris’ guitar. this song is about the things that haunt us...this duet needed to allude to the person who once was, which is why it couldn’t be a vocal. i had this insanely specific tone in my head for it and ended up seeing chris play his fender jazzmaster live for the first time right around the time i was cutting this song. i knew immediately that it had to be him. there was never a back up plan if he said no. thankfully chris is the kind of artist and musician who believes in the integrity of a song over anything else and i’m forever grateful that he liked this one enough to lend his iconic talent to it...he asked what i had in mind and all i said was “think about what you would do with your voice and do it with your guitar instead”. he did.. and then some. ghost in my guitar is out this friday with the rest of TWENTY SOMETHING: Figuring It Out..."
