Tom Petty & The Heartbreakers was on of the most singular and distinctly American bands. Beyond the West Coast rock/folk jangle, San Francisco psychedelia and a blast of British invasion, the South's influence was a constant throughout Petty's songwriting - in his words, truths and especially his defiance and dignity. Petty Country: A Country MUsic Celebration of Tom Petty draws on all the aspects and flavors of the Gainesville-raised icon's roots, bringing the top talent in Country and Americana music together to create a 20-song tribute to Petty's dynamic musical legacy.
