American Songwriter’s Top 50 Songs Of 2011
December 14, 2011
Matraca’s version of “You and Tequila” landed at #35 on American Songwriter’s Top 50 Songs of 2011 list. See what they had to say below…
Sure, this song has been sloshing around for nearly a decade, covered by the likes of Kenny Chesney and Deana Carter. But Berg makes it sound completely new, her steady vocals and gentle way with a melody lending this tale of drunk-driving around Los Angeles fresh resonance.

The Virginia Festival of the Book presents two writers who love music and two singers who love to write. Lee Smith (The Last Girls) and Jill McCorkle (Going Away Shoes) and Nashville singer-songwriters Matraca Berg (Reba McEntire, Dixie Chicks, Faith Hill) and Marshall Chapman (Jimmy Buffett, Wynonna, Olivia Newton-John) come together on one stage on behalf of the Book Festival. Each one is an event by herself; all four create a force of nature. Weaving together stories and music, the evening will entertain you, charm you, and captivate as only four Southern women can. Proceeds from this event will support the Virginia Festival of the Book.Saturday, March 31
