If you love country music with heart, grit, and a good laugh—you’re going to want to hear this one.

I had the absolute joy of chatting with Terri Clark about her Take Two album and her 2.0 Tour with fellow Canadian icon Paul Brandt. And let me tell you—Terri is as down-to-earth and hilarious as she is legendary.

We talked about everything from reimagining her biggest hits with today’s country stars (yes, “Poor, Poor Pitiful Me” with Lainey Wilson is a vibe) to what it was like performing on national TV at the Grand Ole Opry’s 100th anniversary—with Garth Brooks and Reba McEntire watching from front row!

She also shared a hilarious story about getting butt-dialed by Kelly Clarkson—yes, that Kelly Clarkson. “She texts me, is this Terri Clark? And I’m thinking, oh no, some rando has got my number!” Terri laughed.

Terri’s Take Two album is a duet-packed celebration of her career, featuring voices like Cody Johnson, Ashley McBryde, Carly Pearce, and of course, Paul Brandt, who joins her on the road for the Hometown 2.0 Tour.

Terri Clark and Paul Brandt are bringing the Hometown 2.0 Tour to Thunder Bay! See them live Wednesday, November 5 at the Community Auditorium.

The full interview is up now—click to listen and hear Terri talk about stage nerves, and why she still gets goosebumps every time she steps into the Opry circle.
