Country star Tim McGraw is no stranger to collaborating with other artists, but his next duet is with arguably the biggest star yet — the legendary Barbra Streisand.
The EGOT winner — Streisand has won an Emmy, a Grammy, an Oscar and a Tony — announced on Instagram on Wednesday, April 30 that she is gearing up to release a second volume of her The Secret of Life: Partners project, and McGraw is one of the featured artists.
“I’ve always loved singing duets with gifted artists. They inspire me in unique and different ways…and make our time in the studio a joy! My new album, The Secret Of Life: Partners, Volume Two, gave me the chance to work and play with some of my old friends, label mates, and new artists too. I admire all of them… and I hope that you’ll enjoy listening to our collaborations as much as I enjoyed recording with all of my wonderful partners,” wrote the star of stage and screen.
The other artists on the album in addition to McGraw include Hozier, Paul McCartney, Sam Smith, Bob Dylan, Mariah Carey, Laufey, Ariana Grande, James Taylor, Josh Groban, Seal and Sting, so McGraw is definitely in some A-list level company there.
This is hardly McGraw’s first collaboration. He has previously dueted with Jo Dee Messina, Nelly, Def Leppard, Kenny Chesney, Big & Rich, Florida Georgia Line, Parker McCollum, Tyler Hubbard, Taylor Swift, Keith Urban, Post Malone, Gwyneth Paltrow and, of course, his wife Faith Hill, with whom he has recorded eight songs.
The couple, married since 1996, also share three daughters — Gracie, 27, Maggie, 26, and Audrey. 23. The daughters have show talent in following in their parents’ footsteps, particularly Gracie, who made her debut at Carnegie Hall on April 21 in the show The Great War & The Great Gatsby. It will air on PBS on Veterans’ Day.
The Secret of Life: Partners Vol. 2 drops on June 27. Fans can preorder the album here.
