Her gift of writing and selecting the best material has given us unexpected hits and beloved country music anthems.

To make this signing and to join forces with SARA and BORN TO FLY RECORDS is an incredible opportunity we couldn’t be more excited about.”EVANS also told MUSIC ROW, “As an artist I’m always looking for ways to bring my music to as many fans as possible. When the MELODY PLACE team approached me about working together and expanding all the things I’d already been doing with my own label, BORN TO FLY RECORDS, it became clear that they share the same passion and excitement about trying new and innovative things to connect fans with music. I’m so excited to partner with them and get in the studio later this year to record my next studio album of new material.”
