March 17, 2015 (Toronto, ON) – With a JUNO nomination and a Canadian Country Music Association Awards win (Group or Duo of the Year) already under their belt Small Town Pistols are no strangers to the spotlight. Recognized over the past two decades for their musical prowess, this brother-sister duo has continued to push the boundaries of country music since their introduction in 1998. It is no surprise then that, as they prepare to release their highly anticipated sophomore album Pistology, the duo are tackling it from a whole new perspective. Its second single, “Can’t Wait To Meet You,” speaks directly to the new adventure both members are currently on – that of parenthood. Released today, this heartfelt track carries listeners through the emotional adventure of becoming a parent for the first time. Laying a strong foundation for this second full-length album, “Can’t Wait To Meet You” lends itself perfectly to the lesson-bearing anthems found in “My Family” and “Be Your Own Song.” However, the reintroduction of “I Only Smoke When I Drink” (a 2014 fan favourite) and the haunting lyrics of “Ghost” confirms for listeners that this award-winning duo have not been overwhelmed by their recent life changes. They continue to create music that speaks to the challenges of everyday life – desire, heartbreak and the consistent struggle of being true to yourself. Having achieved musical success with The Wilkinsons in the late 90s (earning two Grammy nominations) and their respective solo efforts over the next decade, Small Town Pistol members Amanda and Tyler eventually reunited in Nashville (2012) to write as a duo. They quickly realized they were moving in the right direction and coined their new name in tribute to their Grandmother Ida who was always known as a ‘pistol’ for her razor sharp personality. With a long list of tour dates on the horizon, it will be hard to miss Small Town Pistols in 2015. Fans are encouraged to stay tuned for upcoming announcements throughout the spring. @SmTownPistols | facebook.com/SmallTownPistols YouTube.com/SmallTownPistols
