Shania Twain at Budweiser Stage

Queen of Country Pop Shania Twain is credited as the artist who broadened the influence of country music in the 90s. She brought country music to the pop charts. Known for her contralto voice and blending of country, rock, and pop, she was unstoppable. Her popularity has made her one of the best-selling female artists in country music history and one of the best-selling artists ever.

Even before debuting in the music industry, Shania performed to sustain the daily needs of her siblings. After years, her siblings went their ways. This event pushed her to send her songs to music executives. Subsequently, Mercury Nashville Records signed her. In 1993, she released her self-titled debut album, which gained traction in Canada and the US. That same year, she met Robert John "Mutt" Lange, who helped her develop her second album and later became her husband. The sophomore album, "The Woman in Me," came out in 1995. This instant breakthrough set the course toward her stardom in the following years. "Come On Over," her third album, was released in 1997. This release was an international hit. Five years after, "Up!" debuted at the top of the charts. She did not release albums after this. However, to the delight of all, her album "Now" came out in 2017, celebrated by her fans.

Aside from her Grammy awards, Twain has won 27 BMI Songwriter Awards and has stars on both the Canada Walk of Fame and the Hollywood Walk of Fame, as well as inductions into the Canadian Music Hall of Fame and the Nashville Songwriters Hall of Fame.

After another six years of hiatus, Shania will release her "Queen of Me" album in February 2023. Along with it is a tour that will be visiting the Budweiser Stage in Toronto, Canada, on Friday, June 23, 2023. Canadian country pop Lindsay Ell will be supporting the concert. She is best known for her album "The Project," which topped the Billboard Country Album Sales chart in 2017. Get tickets now!
