Quiana Doing Backing Vocals on New CD

The CH's Cotton reports that Quiana Parler, Clay's backup vocalist will be featured on the sophomore album coming out this spring:

I have a tidbit of news.

Found out today that Quiana is IN LA!!! (She told me on Valentine's Day that she would be singing backup on the cd - so-o-o-o!) I did NOT talk to her. But - the person I did talk with did say that Clay was having some (we talked on top of each other and I missed exact words) 'issues'. I said "With the label?" Answer, "no, with arrangements/arrangers/musicians or something to that effect, wanted to re-work some things on the cd! Wanted to get them right. The way HE wanted cuts to sound." EEE!

Quiana will be back in Chas. for rehearsals Tues and ShineinNC and I will see her on March 31! Although I hope by that time we have heard from the man himself, I'll bring whatever I can share from that meeting. She has a lot going on that weekend, so we won't get to spend as much time with her as we had hoped, so I don't know if we'll get anything other than a wonderful evening of music!

The person and I also talked a bit about the 'mess'. I said I didn't for a minute think that Q would work with the man "those people" were describing and contact agreed she would not. "People are just jealous." this person said. Talked about religion being important to Q and what a sweet girl. Talked about her losing weight with her pregnancy - "The Best diet Ever", according to her, source said, laughing. Sounded like contact knew and respected her a lot. And by extension, Clay. I think that's what started my anticipatory thinking!

I told you it was just a tidbit.
