For Sheryl Crow, the title of her seventh album isn’t just a location; it’s a state of mind. “I grew up in a small town 100 miles from Memphis, and that informed not only my musical taste, but how I look at life,” she says. “The drive to Memphis is all farmland, and everyone is community-oriented,
God-fearing people, connected to the earth.
The music that came out of that part of the world is a part of who I am, and it’s the biggest inspiration for what I do and why I do it.”So for the Kennett, Missouri native, calling the disc 100 Miles From Memphis is a statement of purpose, both musical and emotional.
It also marks a long-awaited return by the nine-time Grammy winner to the sounds that first drew her to making music.
