Megan Morrison has got a lot of guts, a big heart and she puts it all together on this remake of the hit song RODEO! To say that RODEO is close to Megan’s heart, is an understatement. Megan Morrison is a champion rodeo star who opens the rodeos singing the national anthem on horse back, competes in the barrel racing and breakaway roping and then rocks the crowd at night, performing with her band! Megan’s rodeo competition is extreme, add in extreme motocross racing and at this very moment extreme cold…Megan is working in the NWT on the pipeline helping family out! We hope you enjoy the blood, guts and heart that has gone into this song, career and life! “If one looks down the list of music’s greatest writers of all time, I couldn’t imagine the list being complete without the name of Larry Bastian. The song ‘Rodeo’ was originally titled ‘Miss Rodeo.’ It was a female song, where the artist sang about how she could not compete with the sport of rodeo. I tried to get every female I know in the industry to cut this song. When the last one told me she just didn’t hear it, I began to wonder if that meant I was supposed to do something with it. This song was recorded in 1981 as a demo, and for ten years it sat silent. We got a hold of it, and the band’s version of it just stunned me. This song has always been a favorite live, and I hope as long as I get to play live, this will always be on the list.” On the 1995 television special, “The Garth Brooks Story”, Garth said about the song: “I went all over this town trying to get it cut. The song was called Miss Rodeo, and it was written for a woman to sing, and no one would sing it. I crawled on my knees to Trisha Yearwood, I said ‘please you got to hear this song.’ And she goes, ‘Garth I’m sure it’s perfect, I don’t understand the song because I’m not from that part of the country.’ She’s from Georgia.” Well now Megan has taken the song, and sung it from a female rodeo competitor point of view. We hope you enjoy the song which is due to be released the end of February 2013 through DMDS.
