As we get started with 2026 and wait for the new musical delights it will bring, we consider some unfinished business from last year. For example, Los Angeles country singer and songwriter Grey DeLisle had a big 2025. Last spring, she released her ambitious double LP The Grey Album. Then in October came an album she conceived and executive produced. It’s All Her Fault: A Tribute To Cindy Walker is a magical collection of songs by the Country Music Hall of Famer, recorded by some of today’s finest female country voices. Before the holiday rush, she spoke with WMOT about both projects and her highly varied career.
