iTunes Gives Away Crystal Shawanda's Second Single This Week

My Roots Are Showing is a rip-roaring cut from Canadian country singer Crystal Shawanda. The song is a far cry from the mannered country pop that makes headlines - this cut is a heavy rocker in the vein of Gretchen Wilson with a touch of the Charlie Daniels Band. The song is taken from Shawanda's debut, Dawn Of A New Day.

Signed to RCA Records in 2007, she released her debut single, You Can Let Go, in Canada in January 2008. It was released in the US on March 17, 2008. Shawanda's debut album, Dawn Of A New Day, was released in Canada on June 24, 2008; it was later released in the United States on August 19. The album debuted at #16 on the Billboard Top Country Albums chart and became the highest charted album by a full-blooded Native American country artist in the SoundScan era. Shawanda is a First Nations member of the Ojibwe band. Her surname translates to "Dawn of a New Day."
