I just love the backup singing that Liana does. I think the work she does with George Strait is great. Anyone know anything about this girl?

Liana has been a studio/session singer here in Nashville for years, and has sung on a lot of records... She sang on George Strait's records(lots of them!) years before she ever started to tour with him. She toured with Patty Loveless several years ago too; she's very nice, a great singer, and a total pro!

Thanks Pete. Are you touring with Patty again?

Liana has been one of my favorite back-up singers for a long time. Her voice just blends so well with everyone I've heard her back up. I'd like to hear her sing solo sometime.
