Heroes

2012 album from the Country singer, songwriter and legend produced by Buddy Cannon. On Heroes, the songs take on a reflective, emotional tone and move from heartfelt (a stunning rendition of Pearl Jam’s “Just Breathe”) to humor (on “Roll Me Up” with guest vocalist Snoop Dogg). Other guest vocalists on the album include Kris Kristofferson, Merle Haggard, Jamey Johnston, Billy Joe Shaver and Sheryl Crow. Sons Lukas and Micah Nelson also feature prominently, making this a real family affair. This beautiful album, sometimes funny, sometimes poignant, should have broad appeal among Nelson’s core fans and followers and beyond.
