"Virginia Red" was co-written by Sandy and Big Al himself. Shortridge has in past penned hit songs for Larry Sparks, Joe Mullins & The Radio Ramblers, and others. From roots deep in the hills of Southwest Virginia, mountain music runs through her veins, and the original "Virginia Red" is special for many reasons to her and the rest of her family.

"It was fun crafting a song about Big Al's adventures with Virginia Red," Shortridge said. Yes, the song is named after the truck that is its traveler. "The song reveals another side of a truck driver's life that we at home may not always think about."

Truckers, Weekley said, "have a special relationship with their truck just like people, and this is the story of me and my truck 'Virginia Red.' My brother John, a retired trucker, was the one who actually named the song, and the rest is history." 

Players: backing Shortridge in the track include: Richard Bennett on guitar, Milom Williams on mandolin, Steve Wilson on Banjo, Glen Crain with the resonator and guitar, Michael Branch on bass, and Sarah Logan and Steve Wilson singing harmony with Sandy. 

"Virginia Red" is now available to radio for download via AirPlay Direct or pre-orders by fans and is expected for worldwide release on November 26th.
