Info for Detour

Auf ihrem elften Studioalbum widmet Lauper ihre unverwechselbare Stimme den Klassikern des Country aus den 40er-, 50er- und 60er-Jahren. Es sei ein Album, von dem sie schon seit langem Jahren geträumt habe, so sagt sie, denn Sängerinnen wie Patsy Cline, Loretta Lynn und Wanda Jackson habe sie immer in der Küche ihrer Tante Gracie gehört: 'Als ich ein wirklich junges Mädchen war, galt Country bei uns als Pop-Musik und so bin ich damit aufgewachsen. Diese Songs rühren an meine frühesten Erinnerungen, und es ist ein absoluter Kick für mich gewesen, mich mit ihnen zu beschäftigen.'

Nicht weniger bedeutend als das Repertoire selbst sind auch die Gäste, die Lauper für unvergleichliche Duette eingeladen hat. So hört man sie zusammen mit Emmylou Harris auf dem Titeltrack und mit dem legendären Willie Nelson auf 'Night Life', das er selbst vor über 50 Jahren schrieb. Vince Gill begleitet sie auf 'You’re The Reason Our Kids Are Ugly' von Loretta Lynn und Conway Twitty, Alison Krauss interpretiert mit ihr zusammen besagtes 'Hard Handy Christmas' von Dolly Parton und Jewel beweist ihr außergewöhnliches Jodel-Können auf 'I Want To Be A Cowboy’s Sweetheart' – dem ersten von einer Frau (Patsy Montana, 1937) gesungenen Countrysong, der sich über eine Million Mal verkaufte.

Detour wurde in Nashville mit einer Band aus herausragenden Session-Musikern aufgenommen. Es ist das erste Album, das Cyndi Lauper für Sire aufgenommen hat, dessen legendärer Gründer Seymour Stein als Executive Producer fungierte.


Cyndi Lauper
A Grammy, Emmy and Tony award winning artist with 30 sterling years and global record sales in excess of 50 million, Cyndi Lauper has proven that she has the heart and soul to keep her legion of fans compelled by her every creative move. Lauper recently became a New York Times Best Selling author with her autobiography – Cyndi Lauper: A Memoir – published by Simon & Schuster and wrote the original score for the Tony award winning best musical Kinky Boots.

Helping others has always been a guiding force for Cyndi and she focuses her efforts to make a difference through the True Colors Fund. An unwavering advocate for equality long before she became famous, she co-founded the organization in 2008 to bring an end to homelessness among lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transgender youth and create a world where all young people can be their true selves.

In addition, Cyndi is the Honorary Chairperson and a co- founder of the True Colors Residence, the first project of its kind to provide a permanent, supportive and secure home to formerly homeless LGBT youth in New York City. Cyndi also continues to be a tireless participant in the struggle to end the HIV/AIDS pandemic and ensure that women are treated equally around the world.

For more than 30 years, Cyndi Lauper has been a songwriting provocateur. Her musical achievements are so pervasive that they have become entwined in the cultural landscape.

Cyndi first found acclaim in 1983, co-writing a pair of memorable singles "Time After Time" and "She Bop" for her seminal debut, She’s So Unusual. Spring-boarding off this success, she co-wrote most of her follow-up album, True Colors, including the hit "Change of Heart."

As her craft evolved, so did her nuance for expressing social issues, notably on Hat Full of Stars ("Sally’s Pigeons," "A Part Hate", "Broken Glass") and Sisters of Avalon ("Ballad of Cleo And Joe," "Say A Prayer").

Throughout her career Cyndi has penned tracks with an assortment of her peers including Billy Joel, The Hooters, Mary Chapin Carpenter, Jeff Beck, Junior Vasquex, Ryuichi Sakamoto, Nellie McKay and Max Martin. In 2013, those decades of songwriting culminated in Cyndi’s first foray into Broadway, composing the music for the critically adored Broadway musical Kinky Boots.

The musical won six Tony Awards, including one for her score, which made her the first woman to win solo in that category. The show has gone on to set a box office record. All told, Cyndi’s spirited songwriting has earned her more than 50 million in album sales, two Grammys®, an Emmy, and a Tony.

This album contains no booklet.
