Penny Dale (February 2007)
Gene Watson's peers within the country music industry believe in the sheer talent of this unassuming man from east
Texas, so much so that Gene is regarded by many of them as
'the singer's singer' - and rightly so!
All of Gene's Peers who were contacted in 2007 were most gracious with
their time & words. It is here, within this special
part of gene-watson.com, that you have an opportunity to

'Gene
Watson is kind of like the Frank Sinatra
of country music! His voice is so
clear & smooth, but still country; he is
one of the great country crooners'.
Thank you,
Penny Dale, for your support of Gene Watson.
About Penny Dale...
Penny Dale
grew up listening to rock music & then developed a
taste for country music; her sound is a unique mix
of rock, country & southern roots.
Penny was raised in Atlanta, Georgia where she grew
up listening to Stevie
Nicks, Skynyrd & Prince, mixed with David Allen Coe,
Hank Williams Junior, Tracey Chapman &
Hal Ketchum.
Penny's professional career began in Los
Angeles where her unique style &
voice were first noticed by legendary rock
vocalist Rosemary Butler, who took her under her
wing & the two began work on a ten-song debut.
Rosemary's past work with legendary rock &
country artists including James
Taylor, Jackson Browne, Linda Ronstadt & Emmylou Harris, were a perfect
mix with Penny's edgy country vocals & her
rock background.
With
Rosemary's direction & a few of her good
friends including Albert Lee, Andrew
Gold & Herb
Pedersen, Penny
&
Rosemary ended up with a 10-song debut
that created a buzz within the industry.
The songs
were written by some of
Nashville's best including Carolyn Dawn-Johnson
& Jill Colucci.
Penny
then moved to Nashville & began writing
and developing her own sound that she had
always longed to make. She met
with several producers & managers before
choosing producer Eric Fritsch.
Fritsch's Eastwood Studios in East Nashville
was the perfect choice, because it had
been garnering attention for alternative
sounds of country & rock. Penny then saw the
release of her debut set 'Undaunted'.
