Now, after erfolreichen debut album "Tammy Cochran" in 2001 and the mega-single "Angels in Waiting", the 32 year old attractive had set the bar very high from Ohio. That you could cross it anyway, is certainly due to the fact that Cochran has remained true to the success of their first disc: Finest mainstream country, in the heart of traditional yet modern over coming. Tammy sings of small towns, forbidden love relationships and unfulfilled dreams. All this with a slightly smoky, powerful and "old-fashioned" voice. Cochran is certainly one of the most promising talents in Nashville and the best known. "Story-plates", whose songs tell stories of everyday life. In addition to "Life Happened," a history of painful experiences between desire and reality, burst dreams and lost opportunities, falls particularly "White Lies and picket fences" on the "American dream" is not always true! Tammy takes you from her singing from the real life, not a matter of course in today's "New Country" scene. When she sings of love, it is believed she is in love when she sings of lost love, it is believed she has experienced herself, and when she sings of its own strength, you feel it. Real could hardly be music. In the US it is already compared to past greats like Tammy Wynette and Loretta Lynn. The stuff withstand this comparison, it certainly has, because it is the most promising "Traditional" singer Lee Ann Womack since the late '90. An American music magazine writes: "Cochran has one vote for which one could die, and not only that: She sings with a sincerity that makes a shiver down your spine" Other women may sell more records, but few of these albums have the substance of "Life Happened"!
