Hot on the heels of her performance of her original song “Moment of Weakness” on last week’s episode of the top-rated ABC hit The Bachelor, Tenille Arts is releasing a deluxe edition of her Rebel Child album on Friday, February 9, 2018.
The new version of the album will include the radio edit and an acoustic version of “Moment of Weakness” and a soulful cover of the Alannah Myles smash “Black Velvet.” Rebel Child – Deluxe Edition will also include “Wildfire and Whiskey,” which has received over 1.5 million streams. The Bachelor appearance propelled “Moment of Weakness,” which Tenille wrote with Adam Wheeler and Rick Huckaby, to #7 on the iTunes Canada Country chart and #17 in the U.S. Rebel Childcame back onto the U.S. chart hitting #16, and her debut EP – which came out in October 2016 – reentered at #37.
The success of “Rebel Child” prompted PopCulture.com to name Tenille one of their “Country Artists to Watch in 2018.” Making waves with her self-titled debut EP a year earlier, resulted in streaming giant Pandora naming her one of their new artists to watch for 2017 and other media outlets touting her insightful songwriting and powerful vocals.
Tenille co-wrote 13 of the 15 songs on “Rebel Child – Deluxe Edition” with the likes of Chris Caminiti, Lydia Dall, Mark Narmore, Buddy Owens, Holly Stewart, Adam Wheeler and Doug Wilhite. Wheeler produced the album with Matt Rovey for 19th & Grand Records.
