Tony Award winner Cyndi Lauper goes country on her upcoming album 'Detour', dropping May 6th. and available for pre-order on iTunes HERE. Check out a first listen of "Funnel of Love," the debut single off the crossover LP HERE.
"A lot of songs on this record are from that period of country-western music right before rock & roll came along," Lauper tells PEOPLE "I studied a lot of singers, and Wanda Jackson, who originally sang this, was one of the original rock & rollers. I wanted this song to have that live sound, and it does." The project marks the 11th full-length album for the 62 year old music icon who was inducted into the Songwriters Hall of Fame last year. The album features country legends Emmylou Harris, Willie Nelson, Vince Gill, Jewel and Alison Krauss covering classics from the genre.
