More than two decades into her career, singer-songwriter Leigh Nash shines a light on her Texas roots with The State I m In, a solo album that plants its feet on both sides of the border. Nash was raised in the Texas Hill Country, and The State I m In marks a return to her days in the Lone Star State, though, with Nash whipping up a combination of Texas twang, Tejano, orchestral pop hooks and heartbroken lyrics. In classic country style, she sings about heartache and bad luck in a voice that swoons, sweeps and swaggers, backed by a band whose members include Emmylou Harris s pianist, Jack White s fiddle player and award- winning a cappella group Street Corner Symphony.
