Shania Twain
Manage episode 426266149 series 1301252
Before she became one of the best-selling musicians of all time, Shania Twain worked for the family tree-planting business, singing for tips in lumberjack bars to help make ends meet. Stephen Smith charts the rise of a hard-up Canadian country girl, from a violent family home, to a country-pop crossover superstar.
This year's Glastonbury 'Legends' slot will be the first time some will have seen or heard from Shania in decades - we hear about the disease that robbed her of her voice at the peak of her powers in the early 2000s and, along with a devastating divorce, led to a 15-year gap between albums. Contributors:
John Kim Bell, former producer and boyfriend Lindsay Ell, guitarist Jake Gosling, music producer Marc Bouwer, fashion designer
Presenter: Stephen Smith Producers: Simon Tulett and Natasha Fernandes Sound: Neil Churchill Production Coordinators: Maria Ogundele and Sabine Schereck Editor: Penny Murphy
