Tennessee Sky is a studio album by Australian singer songwriter Rick Price. The album was released on 25 April 2015 on Clarice Records, through the PledgeMusic campaign. It peaked at number 97 on the ARIA Charts and number 19 on the Australian Indie chart[2] on 4 May 2015.
Describing the album, Price said; “I’ve never done a record like this before, not this kind of music. A lot of it is very gospel based. Some of it is just like Texas swing music. Some of it sounds like an old hymn. It’s drawing on old roots based music.” [3]
Price toured Australia in July 2015[4] and again on the "Can I Get a Witness" tour in April/ May 2016.[5]
The first single from the album, "Work That Fire" was released on 3 October 2014 Price said; “It has its roots in gospel. It’s a really kind of upbeat song. I’m not religious but I’ve written a lot of spiritual songs I guess.” [6] There is a acoustic re-working of the Leonard Cohen hit Hallelujah. The album features guest appearances by guitarist Tommy Emmanuel and singer Anthony Snape.

Reviews
Steve Yanko of Sy Music gave the album a positive review saying "In an era where a lot of pop music is created by talented producers using a lot of studio technology, it is so refreshing to hear wonderful songs using real instruments and great musicianship. More impressive is that Rick Price is playing most of the instruments himself on this album." adding Tennessee Sky "is fresh and uplifting." [7]
