Shania Twain, famously known as the 'Queen of Country Pop', is all set to showcase her music in Chepstow on Friday, 5th July. She gained a lot of popularity in the mid-90s when she released her album "The Woman in Me" and changed the country music genre by adding a pop sound to it. Her music is a fusion of country and pop, making it unique and one of its kind.

In 1997, she put out a record named "Come On Over" that went on to become the highest-selling studio album ever made by a female artist in any genre, as well as the top-selling album in the country music category. The album included popular and classic tracks such as "Man! I Feel Like a Woman!" and "You're Still the One."

Famous for her inspiring songs and lively performances, Twain has earned many accolades, such as five GRAMMYs, and has surpassed the 100 million records sold mark, cementing her status as the most successful female country musician and a legendary figure in music history.

Shania Twain is teaming up with Rag’n’Bone Man, an accomplished musician who has earned numerous accolades and sold millions of records with chart-topping songs like "Human," "Skin," and "Giant" (which he produced alongside Calvin Harris). His latest album, "LIFE BY MISADVENTURE," was a huge commercial success in 2021, quickly climbing the UK album charts to become one of the best-selling records of the year. It retained a prominent spot in the Top 10 for a total of seven weeks.

Rag'n'Bone Man has traveled all around the world putting on amazing, jam-packed shows that leave audiences in awe! He's even performed at big events like the BRIT Awards and the Olympics Homecoming Concert. And lucky for you, he'll be bringing his incredible show to the Chepstow Summer Sessions! Don't miss out on this one-of-a-kind experience.

According to Peter Taylor, who is one of the founders of Cuffe and Taylor, they are extremely thrilled to have the amazing Shania Twain, who is known as the absolute authority in Country Pop music, perform at the Chepstow Summer Sessions this coming July. Shania's music, which is a marvellous combination of country and pop, coupled with her exceptionally impressive stage persona, has awestruck millions all over the globe. Her performance is going to be a remarkable and momentous experience, as she will present her number one hits and exhilarating vibrancy on our stage.
